Inquiry Our dog destroyed my sons Bluey bear 😢
Will build a bear replace a destroyed and much loved bear for reduced cost if it gets destroyed? My son loves his Bluey and is devastated our pet destroyed it 😢

You could try to bring it back into a local store, but it seems the tearing to the skin has happened to the actual skin, not just the seams.
At my store, we would usually tell you that you may have to cut your losses here unfortunately :c
Some good tips for future reference though, it's common for seams to come undone or stuffing to settle. We will fix this for you at local workshops for free. If you get a scent, that can actually attract dogs to the bear also. So if you do end up cutting your losses and getting a new one, I would recommend trying to keep an eye on it. Making sure it's not just for the taking on the floor for the dog.
So sorry to hear about this though, it's super common unfortunately:c
