" I am fully aware that eyelids will be a large extra cost, yet I have a question about an alternative way of the dolls showings expressions.Within the attached file " eyelids" I have shown a sample of our competitor's plush " The Dog" . this image shows obvious eyelids. Yet when you look to the right and see our Pug and Yorkshire Terrier... the extra bump over eyes work."

I am not sure. My guess is he wants to add an extra skin fold over the eyes to make the face more expressive. You know, one like the hush puppies have...these guys are all wrinkled up - plenty of folds . I think he wants to take a little shortcut and instead of making the eyebrows on the dog he wants to add an extra skin fold instead. He thinks it's cheaper but should work as well.
Just a guess.
