Teddy's Baby

My dog has a baby. Okay, well, not a real baby, but his favorite dog toy. A stuffed ground hog that we in the Joseph-Seefelt family call his baby.

The funny thing about Teddy's baby is that it's not technically a dog toy. You see, when Zack was between the ages of, like, 3-7, he was really into animals. He watched videos about animals, had tons of books about animals, went to zoos and nature centers, and had plenty of the stuffed and plastic variety, too.

When we first got Teddy four years ago, Zack had left his stuffed ground hog on the floor. Teddy noticed it, seized it, growled and grunted and shook it in his clenched jaws as if he were wringing the life out of it, and hasn't let it go since. The groundhog became Teddy's baby.
