The brave Rottweiler is a guard dog by nature, so this pup is observant and smart. We bid a warm farewell to this dedicated dog!

Introducing Webkinz Signature Endangered Pets!
This year, we’re expanding on the “Signature” series with a brand new line of pets called the “Signature Endangered” line! Signature Endangered pets are large and soft, and adopting one of these pets rewards a special piece of furniture from a Signature Endangered room theme, a Wish Token, and a Sanctuary Gift Pack that includes an Endangered-exclusive Sanctuary wallpaper and flooring. Signature Endangered pets will be drawn from the pool of endangered animals in the world, which include some of the world’s most breath-taking creatures. Kicking off the new Signature Endangered Line is the beautiful Bengal Tiger! One of the most elusive and rare creatures in all of Webkinz World, the Signature Endangered Bengal Tiger is shy but ready to warm up to you if you care for it. Your love will be rewarded in turn, as this timid tiger comes with a Wild Game Gourmet BBQ, Stealthy Steak Tatar, and the Dry Forest Sanctuary Gift Pack. We’ll be celebrating the launch of the Endangered Line in March 2010 when the Bengal Tiger hits store shelves, so check back here on Webkinz Newz for more in the coming weeks!
