Wal-Mart Recalls Stuffed Christmas Beagles

December 14, 2006
Wal-Mart is recalling about 56,000 "Holiday Time" stuffed Christmas beagles. The red pompoms on the wreath attached to the beagle's mouth could detach, posing a choking hazard to young children.

The stuffed animal is a brown and white beagle with a red scarf and Santa hat trimmed in red and white stripes. A green wreath with red pompoms is attached near the beagle's mouth. The stuffed beagle measures 7-inches tall and 5-inches long. "Marketed by WAL-MART STORES, INC" and UPC number "8 85271 90780 3" are printed on the dog's sewn-in labels. "Holiday Time™" is printed on the animal's hang tag.

The beagles were sold exclusively at Wal-Mart stores nationwide from September 2006 through December 2006 for about $3.

Consumers should immediately take the stuffed animal away from young children and return it to the nearest Wal-Mart store for a full refund.

Consumer Contact: For more information, contact Wal-Mart at (800) 925-6278 between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit www.walmartstores.com.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
