Sophie the Giraffe Teething Toy

Complaints of choking prompted toy store to pull from shelves

4 years ago

There are thousands of mothers who have blog postings with accolades to this cute and squeaky toy. But there have also been postings about choking hazards on infants having her legs rammed down their throats. One complaint was called into my trusted toy store and they removed the product from their shelves. read review

Sophie the Giraffe pulled from Toys R Us Canada shelves

3 years ago

The product has been removed from their shelves and is not available for purchase.

Health Canada has not issued a recall or product warning but according to the representative at Toys R Us “the product is under assessment and they like to err of the side of caution.” There have been several reports of choking incidents and other toy stores have also pulled the product from their shelves.

UPDATE: This toy was made available for purchase again in March 2009. view post
