Tombot Jennie in Australia
Tombot Jennie status for Australian buyers at September 2026: waitlist only, no Australian price published and no Australian retailer yet.
Tombot Jennie is a robotic Labrador puppy made by Tombot Inc., a United States company. It was designed with Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, the studio known for puppets, and it is aimed at older people and people living with dementia. It has had coverage in Australian aged care media, including a January 2026 article, and Australians search for it by name. This page records what is known for Australian buyers. We update it when the status changes.
Can you buy Tombot Jennie in Australia?
No, not at September 2026. The Tombot website says the first release sold out and that new buyers can join a waitlist. It does not list the countries it ships to. We found no Australian retailer selling Jennie, and no Australian distributor has been announced.

What will Tombot Jennie cost in Australia?
There is no Australian price yet. When a price appears it will depend on the exchange rate, freight, GST and any Australian distributor’s margin. Expect Jennie to cost a good deal more than the companion pup, which sells for $269 to $315 here. We will add an Australian figure only when a supplier publishes one.
Should you buy from an overseas seller?
Be careful. With the maker reporting a sold-out first release, a listing that claims stock on hand deserves checking. Ask who the seller is, what warranty applies in Australia, whether the power supply suits Australian sockets, and how a fault would be repaired. Buying from an Australian supplier once one exists gives you Australian consumer law protection and a local contact.
What can you buy while you wait?
If the person you are buying for would enjoy a dog now, a companion pup or MetaDog can be bought in Australia today. A family can start with a pup and decide later whether a premium dog is worth the extra cost. Compare them in our robotic dog comparison.
