Vintage Dog Family

NIB vintage dog family from Alps. Made in Japan. This is a highly sought after collectors toy. Very rare as this is one of the original versions. Apparently the company discontinued the three dog version and moved to a two dog version. This pup is in full working condition. She moves her head, wags her tail, and makes a chirping (barking) noise. The pups are not battery operated but if placed next to the dogs nipple it looks like they are drinking milk. Box is in bad shape, it has been taped in several places and is ripped. Please see photos for condition. Dog has discoloration from age. Please give momma and her pups a lovely home!
