According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the seam on the Starbrights Dragon stuffed animals can open, allowing children access to the stuffing material. That material, according to the recall, is a choking hazard.
Customers with the stuffed animals are told they can bring it to any Build-A-Bear Workshop store to receive a coupon for a free stuffed animal.
In total, the company says about 33,600 of the product were sold in the U.S., with about 1,000 more sold in Canada.
No incidents involving the stuffed animals were reported, the company said.
