Most of the kids I know prefer Max, the lovable Jack Russell Terrier, as their toy from the film. This version of Max talks and makes noises when they tilt or squeeze him, resulting in some pretty sweet interaction.

The Secret Life of Pets Gidget Talking Plush Buddy

You can buy the Gidget talking plush buddy out of The Secret Life of Pets on Amazon.

The Secret Life of Pets isn’t just about dogs, if you’re wondering. It also has a crazy rabbit, snowball, who makes an excellent talking plush buddy.

The funny thing about this The Secret Life of Pets mini-apartments toy is the different mood each animal seems to be in. Things are better the higher you go.
