These products pose a risk of choking because the horse, dog and frog (the exporter also decided to recall the other animals: pig, donkey) did not withstand the test and plastic filling can become accessible. Children may put it into their mouth and choke. These products do not comply with the Toys Directive and with the relevant European standard EN 71.
