Just when you think you know your dog....

It changes in a blink of an eye.

Around 1996 my grandmother sent me a birthday gift, a soft white big teddy bear with a check taped in it's arms. Shortly after that she passed and sense then that teddy bear has meant the world to me. It has always sat on the floor of my room, on a little bench. Over the years it's not as white as it use to be and age has shown, but I still love that teddy, it's the last gift she ever she sent me.

There's a reason I told this story......Brandy who has never had interest in toys decided today, to change her years of ways. :eek: ...

She now has claimed the teddy as her own. :eek:

In the blink of an eye, Brandy has become a Toy dog. Problem is, it's my toy, not the dogs toys. She carried that teddy bear off it's bench and into the other room, thinking she was hiding it from me. She knows, that's mommy's toy.

Well, she tried. I'm sure she'd be willing to
share it with you. :p Have you tried giving
her a smaller version of your big bear?
She'd probably give you the smaller one, huh?

Silly puppy!! My moms dog, Twilight ignores stuffed animals/toys until she KNOWS for sure that it isn't meant for her!

Dogs can be such dorks sometimes ;) but of course thats why we love em!

Cute pix, and a sweet story about your grandmother too. :)

You see those other toys, in the background, those are just some of the toys I gave her, that was my attempt to swap with her. Ha, that was a joke, she is now sleeping on the teddy bear. :mad:

That is so cute. I'm sure you don't mind letting Brandy borrow it. When I was first reading it, I was picturing a shredded bear :eek: So, I'm glad that's not the case. Those are some cute pics.

Give her time, it's only been a day. That's a big bear for a little thing like her, this could be a long slow death. :eek:


of course as soon as she walks away from it, it's mine again. hehe.

Oh Dear!

I have some bears that are MINE MINE MINE.
But I know, one day Captain will decide (because he LOVES BEARS), that they should belong to him, and take them down, one by one.

Good Luck!!

[jennifert9]

You are lucky the bear lasted as long as it did!! :D I "used" to have my own special bears but that didn't last long...
As soon as Duncan felt that I was "ignoring" him (on the computer, sleeping, using the facilities...;)) he claimed them...even going so far as to drag them off shelves almost 6 feet high!!!
Living with a man and a dog, nothing is your own! ;) :D

[finn's mom]

How adorable. :)

[jesse_3]

Oh no! Brandy, you silly girl! That is mommy's, not yours!

I hope that you can find a way to get your big bear back...I'm sure that Brandy is just jealous!!!!;):D

She know's a good bear when she see's it.

[chocolatepuppy]

That's cute! The bear 'used' to be mommy toy! :D

[Jadapit]

:D How cute! She looks so proud of herself in the third picture.

[vinjashira]

wow I've never seen a live-size teddy.. no wonder your dog loves it :D

[beeniesmom]

hehehehe:D

[Bambi_Babe]

lol how cute...she will share...hopefully

[Fox-Gal]

I claimed my bear back!!!

It's now on top of my dresser and Brandy's out of luck. If she can manage to get up there to get it, then she earned the right to keep it. But till then it's mine.


Leaving in a little bit, to go buy her, her own bear. Watch, as soon as I get her, her own bear, she will go back to not wanting toys. But, Grandma's bear is off limits from now on.

[dogzr#1]

Well be thankful she wasn't a big dog. Your bear could've been long gone. Glad you got it back!

[LeahMM]

That bear is huge and your puppers is adorable. I can't leave stuffed anything around. Bozy would have had that thing destuffed in a matter of minutes.

[luvofallhorses]

That is so cute :)

[Ginger's Mom]

Glad you got your bear back. But you are right, she isn't going to want her own bear. That bear has been sitting there looking at her for years and she has been planning her mode of attack on him. A strange bear just wouldn't be as much fun.:p
