When we got Barnum as a little puppy, we asked our vet what the best toy would be for him.
I fully expected her to suggest some small toy as he was a wee-bit of a pup, but instead she told us to get him a stuffed toy that was bigger then he was. And so we did.

We got "Mama Dog". This is actually "Mama Dog #2" as he just about wore the other Mama Dog out. He loved Mama Dog so much.
He would lay on her, cuddle with her, drag her, shake her, take her up the stairs and down the stairs, and take her to bed. He still sleeps with Mama Dog and he is now 9 years old.

And he was always good about sharing Mama Dog with Ms. Bailey.
