Absolute top! The truth fades a little. Because when you do something like this with this type of fabric, loose "fur" comes out of the original pattern. It won't fall off further if you brush it well. This will get rid of loose "fur" and fluff up our sheep nicely. My 18 month old wears it EVERYWHERE and loves tying it to his belt. It doesn't look like a regular sheep baa, more like those rubber pig toys at Walmart that honk, squeak, and croak depending on how you manipulate and squeeze the doll. It doesn't matter as it's so cute no one cares.
