P.Lushes Pets were created by Spin Master and social media content creators like Savannah Labrant, Jenna Davis and Loren Gray. The plush collection of toy pets introduce characters and customized capsule collections that are available in limited quantities.
Each plush has a unique sparkling collar of its own and a personality to match. As Spin Master's Executive Vice President, Marketing, Laura Henderson, says "The P.Lushes Pets collection takes inspiration from runways around the world, blending the popularity of designer pets and the allure of the latest fashion trends brought to life through this collection of adorable sassy characters."
Some of the characters include Ella L'Phante, Cala Bassethound and Dottie Woofington, and Savannah Labrant will reveal her P.Lushes Pet character, Pinkie Monroe, on Instagram and TikTok.
