Shawnimals will be presenting a follow up to last year’s popular – and consequently sold-out – Chicago Dog, available exclusively at the 2011 Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo (C2E2 for short). Enter the Ninja Dog! From the tag…

Some dogs are simply too special to be considered food, yet this does not stop them from being pursued. Ninja Dog can evade the most veracious eaters – even Chicagoans – with his honed ninja skills and innovative gadgetry. He can scale buildings with his sport pepper grapple and mustard rope, blind you with a celery salt smoke bomb, or even smother you with his charred yet strangely squishy bun. You’ve been warned!

Hit the jump for more..

The handmade Ninja Dog plush exclusive is part of a 100 piece edition, available for $25 a piece at the Shawnimals booth (no. 1036 near the signing area). Each one is bagged and numbered, with special header card designed by the Shawnimals team. It comes equipped with everything one would expect a Ninja Dog to need including a sport pepper grapple, a mustard rope, and a satchel containing a celery salt smoke bomb.

C2E2 runs March 18th – 20th, 2011. Tickets and more info can be found at the C2E2 website

If by chance these highly anticipated items aren’t completely sold out by the end of the show, the remaining Ninja Dogs will be available for purchase at the Shawnimals online store.

One more tidbit for Wee Ninja fans: Keep an eye out for the life-sized Wee Ninja who’ll be stealthily wandering the aisles at this year’s C2E2 – perhaps he’ll give you a special ninja treat if you ask nicely…
