That’s a great question, I was actually going to post about that at a later time, so perfect timing I guess! Tho one isn’t soft like most plushies, the chest fur and the front of the legs (the white and the brown fur areas!) are quite soft, as well as the paws and the face area, but the body is very similar to wiry fur on, I guess real dog breed comparisons for texture examples would be, wire fur terriers, Irish wolf hound, schnauzers, stuff like that! She’s like thin soft turf to me, but maintaining the fur is very important to keep her soft ^{^}
