Looking for a place to buy inexpensive white, black, and tan faux fur for making stuffed puppies. I can't pay too much. I am not working right now and the fur is for making stuffed dogs as give aways to children in the hospital. Help!

I would suggest polar fleece-type fabrics. They're readily available and many are on sale now; come in wonderful colors, feel good, and (best of all for kids) are washable. Inexpensive faux fur is not washable - not so good when a child has been ill and the beloved animal has to be thrown out as it may carry some germs.
Also, the polar fleeces are very forgiving when you're sewing, the same cannot be said for inexpensive (or expensive) faux fur. Good luck, and blessings to you for your work!
Try looking for robes and jackets at thrift stores, then use the fabric for the toys.
