What happened to it? / A dog or another pet got hold of it

Stuffed animal repair and restoration after a dog

Dog damage is the commonest reason people go looking for this trade, and it is also the one most likely to need rebuilding rather than mending. A chewed ear is a stitching job. A stuffed animal that has been shaken apart and had the stuffing pulled out is a reconstruction, and not everybody who mends does that.

Same checks, lower down the order. Where they are and how you hand it over matter more than our ordering does, so both are here.

Who we ruled out for this, and why

11 of the 108 are listed on this site and are deliberately not above. Ruling somebody out is a claim, so here is each one with the reason, and you can disagree with it.

  • Works through your insurer after a fire or a flood, and invoices the claim. There is no way to hire them directly

Questions people ask

How many repair shops can restore or rebuild something this badly damaged?
97 of the 108 we hold in the United States could take this on, and 11 could not. Every one of them is named on this page, including the ones we ruled out and why. Across both countries we have read 185 businesses in total, so if you have seen a bigger number quoted somewhere, that is the one.
What does it cost?
One small thing: $10-$50, from 11 published prices. What a full restoration actually costs: $300-$450, from 1 published price. All read from repair shops' own public pages in August 2026, across 33 individual prices from 7 businesses. Most of this trade publishes nothing at all.
Will they insure it while they have it?
Almost certainly they have not said. Of every repair shop we have read in both countries, two have written anything down about losing or damaging an item. Nobody has been asked the question directly, including by us. Ask before you send anything you could not replace, and get the answer in writing.
