so, hooch has a baby.. same baby since we got him.. and he loves to "nurse" on it for comfort. he has gone through 4 already.. regular wear and tear..
recently, he has discovered how to chew the nose off.. and pull out the stuffing.. then gets bent when i take it away.. to sew, or finally retire because it is unrepairable..
i bought him a tougher baby.. a different one, but i quickly realized it was not the same.. and he really was looking for something to suckle, and getting frustrated.. looking all over for the "real" baby..
brilliant idea coming up now..
i cut off a back pocket to a pair of old jeans.. and sewed it on over the nose of the baby.. violla! hooch has his baby back, and i won't have to sew it back together every night! it has been 3 days so far, and not a sign of a weakened stitch.. and he is happily carrying it everywhere, and nursing like a champ.
just thought i'd share..
here are some pics of little hooch and his baby..

Kasper is bad about this...he doesn't suckle toys...he just does it in his sleep. He likes stuffed toys and I buy him ones on clearance and if he tears them up fine. Well he's been doing good and not destroying the ones with the squeakers....low and behold I buy him a new one and it's now a faceless and semi stuffless lamb/sheep. I'll have to post the pics later! Love my weimy boy...I wouldn't trade him for the world!
