A customer said she saw a display of the adorable cuddly toys in her local supermarket.
The dogs are completely free as long as you purchase a bundle of Andrex toilet paper.
In fact, you can get one of the Labrador toys for £9.95 with a pack of 16 padded toilet rolls.
You must also have a Tesco Clubcard to qualify for this offer.
But don’t worry if you only want a dog, because for a few euros you can also buy one separately.
The deal was spotted by shopper Ava, who shared a video of the toy on her @avacoopers account.
She wrote: “Your cue to go to Tesco and get the free Andrex puppy.
“He’s so cute.
“YOU CAN GET THE TEDDY WITHOUT BUYING THE TOILET ROLL!
“HE’S ABOUT £2 SOMETHING!”
Many people seemed to be looking forward to it click to suspend the deal for nostalgic reasons.
One said, “Wait a minute, what’s going on?”
Another added: “I had one as a kid but I left it somewhere. OMG I need one.”
However, others said they had to make the heartbreaking decision not to put it in their shopping cart.
Someone wrote: “I’m afraid I can’t justify 16 sandwiches for a tenner when there are 24 duck sandwiches for a fiver.
“The saddest choice I ever had to make.”

A second noted: “My friend said no today.”
Andrex puppies became iconic in the UK thanks to a long-running advertising campaign for Andrex toilet paper, which began in 1972.
The first Andrex puppy appeared in a 1972 television commercial in the UK and over time became a key part of Andrex’s marketing strategy, appearing in hundreds of television advertisements, print media and packaging.
The original purpose was to showcase the softness of the toilet paper, but the puppy quickly became the brand’s mascot.
What can I get with Tesco Clubcard?
TESCO’s Clubcard programme allows customers to earn points while they shop.
You can then exchange these points for discount vouchers for food at the supermarket or for discounts in other places, such as restaurants and days out.
Every time you spend £1 in store or online you get one point when you scan your Clubcard.
Drivers who use the customer card receive one point for every two liters of fuel they spend.
One point is equal to 1p, so for example 150 points you would get a £1.50 discount voucher.
You can double their value if you exchange them for discounts at ‘reward partners’.
For example, you can redeem £12 in vouchers for a three-month Disney+ subscription worth £24.
Or you can exchange 50p in points for £1 to spend at Hungry Horse pubs.
Where you can spend them changes regularly. You can check what’s currently available on the Tesco website.
Tesco customers can also take advantage of Clubcard prices if they have a loyalty card.
The discounted items change regularly and without a Clubcard you will pay a higher price.
These Clubcard prices are usually listed on the shelves, along with the price for non-members.
But it is important to know that it is not necessarily the cheapest offer, even if there is a discount. Compare prices to find the best deal.
You can sign up for a Tesco Clubcard in-store or online via the Tesco website.
