Charlie The Weighted Puppy Dog

Emotional security designed for littlies. Charlie is a soft, and weighted puppy dog that is perfect for all children including our sensory and anxious friends. Backed by evidence-based research, Charlie helps with reducing anxiety and improving sleep quality. 

✔ Promotes calmness by providing proprioceptive input

✔ Soothes feelings of panic and improves sleep

Charlie is a therapeutic tool that your child will love.

Backed by evidence-based research, Charlie the weighted puppy dog focuses on Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation (DPTS), which is a firm tactile sensory input that provides a Proprioceptive* response to the body. It simulates firm hugs and compression and motivates the release of serotonin and dopamine in the brain. This helps children to regulate their emotions when going to sleep or when they are feeling emotionally overwhelmed.

Beautifully designed and super soft, Charlie is infused with dried French lavender flowers for relaxation and medical stone which is a natural silicate mineral, making him perfect for all our gluten free friends! Charlie is the perfect toy for our littlies to snuggle with.

Charlie

I had been tossing up purchasing Charlie for my 3 year old for awhile but once I did I realised I should have much sooner! Charlie provides a great comfort for sleeping alone in his bed to cuddle, rather than me, being a great size and weight not to mention so soft.

Perfect for the whole family!

Charlie is super soft and cuddly! We tried heating her up last night and when warmed she had a lovely subtle lavender scent - perfect for snuggling in bed. Mum may have even ‘borrowed’ her for her sore tummy too!
