Asthma Friendly Stuffed Dogs

When I was in Kindergarten I had a friend who was highly allergic to stuffed animals. She still had them, but they were all double bagged in plastic. I remember her collection of bagged animals in her room and sometimes she'd have one with her at the playground. I never really thought anything of it until I was a little older - funny how sometimes kids just accept things as they are.

This is the first stuffed animal that I've come across that is supposedly asthma and allergy friendly. It's made of a material that keeps dust mites and other allergens at low levels and can withstand mulitple washings and freezing. Anyone know what freezing the stuffed animals are supposed to do?
