To use your Scruff-A-Luvs pet, start by rescuing it. Then, give it a bath to see its true neon colors. After that, dry it with a soft towel. Use the heart - shaped comb to groom and style your pet's fur. When filling out the adoption certificate, have fun naming your new pet and adding other details. Make sure to keep the collar and tag safe as they are for your pet's identification. As for maintenance, keep the pet away from sharp objects to avoid tearing the plush. If it gets dirty again, you can repeat the bathing process. Remember, this toy is for kids aged 2 and up, so adult supervision is recommended for younger children.
