These pacifier holders have been recalled for a possible choking hazard

If you have recently purchased a pacifier and teether holder for an infant, take a look at the brand. Handi-Craft, the makers of Dr. Brown’s Lovey Pacifier and Teether Holder, have issued a recall for eight styles of its animal-shaped pacifier and teether holders because the snap can detach from the ribbon, causing a potential choking hazard.

The recall was issued after 67 reports of the ribbon fraying and the snap detaching. No injuries have been reported, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The holders were sold in eight styles: Giraffe, Zebra, Turtle, Reindeer (Special Holiday Edition), Frog (Special Holiday Edition), Spring Bunny (Special Holiday Edition), Deer and Bunny at Bed Bath & Beyond, H-E-B Grocery, Kmart, Target, Toys ‘R’ Us/Babies ‘R’ Us, Walmart and on Amazon, from August 2015 to March 2018, for about $10 each.

About 600,000 holders were recalled, in total. Only holders with the following lot codes are included in the recall:
