| ah! i figured it out and i feel silly now. i clicked on a link and i must of walked away. anywho. i think these dolls are a tad creepy, maybe because they look so real! At first i thought someone was selling real puppies and dogs over ebay, then I thought they were stuffed! i had to read the description to figure out they were just dolls, but they look so real to me that they are creepy! Anyone else think so!? |

| I think they are creepy too. I also find it creepy that anyone would spend that much money on that thing!

| Someone had it in a post yesterday. Maybe that's where it came from. I'd rather have the real thing is I was spending that much money.

| I'd buy it if I had the money. She's unbelievably talented and her pricing is very appropriate considering all the work and fine materials that she puts into them. Yes, you can buy a real dog for that price, but that's not the point. It's a one of a kind art piece. Sort of like how paintings sell for thousands and thousands of dollars. You can buy a stillife painting of a bowl of fruit for several thousands dollars....but people don't usually say "omg, I'd rather buy a real bowl of fruit for under $10" lol. |

| i saw something similar to this the other day, but they were selling life like dolls of human babies. now THAT was pretty creepy to me. they were dolls with their eyes closed and when i first saw it, i thought it was a real baby...but not alive...and was wondering why someone would ever post a picture of that somewhere! then i realized they were dolls. i think the little yorkie doll is cute...but for that much i would get a real one! |

| Tammy's dogs are faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar from creepy...they are true art at its finest...I always bid on her dogs but unfortunately never win...if you read about her on her website you will find she is a very special lady with a terrific talent..OOAK bears and pets are VERY popular and Tammy is one of the best if not THE best.. |

| One hand Where did you read she had only one hand? That is truly amazing. I did not think they were creepy at all. I collect dolls... and I would LOVE to have one w/ one of my dolls. But sadly we are on Uncle Sam's salary... and he is kinda stingy...lol. Anyway.... really... can you imagine w/ the description and one hand how much work she has to put into these. I think they are priced appropriately... they don't just look like any joe blow stuffed animal! If you can't have pets...lol... there you go! Also... my mamaw is in a nursing home and she collects dogs... she would adore one!!! |
