Remember Beaver? (Check out: “Good Night, Beaver” for more details) Beaver is Sofie’s lovey. Beaver goes everywhere with Sofie and she can’t sleep if she doesn’t have him. Beaver was a toy that was actually bought for Louise the day I brought Sofie home to live we us. But Sofie decided it was hers, just like she does every toy in the house. Beaver is very important and I now keep him locked up in the kennel during the day because (1) if Louise gets ticked at Sofie, she tries to rip Beaver just to upset her and (2) Sofie tends to get a little protective of Beaver.
I find that some dogs really have an attachment to certain toys (like Sofie does) and others could not care less (like Louise). Because Beaver is now locked up during the day, Sofie has taken to carrying around an ‘airdog’ and whining and carrying on over it instead. At least the ‘airdog’ is a bit more durable, especially out in the yard (where I try to make sure Beaver never goes). One night Beaver did go in the yard and you had to see me walking around with the flashlight to try and find him so that Sofie could go to bed. Oh my, what we do for our furries.
So the other day V came back from the pet store with something really amazing for Nine. A mini Beaver. Now the 2 best friends, Sofie and Nine, have their own matching lovies. Awwwww. Nine’s however, you can fill with catnip. Too cute.
Just another DogDaz morning at the zoo ❤
