Reply With QuoteBoth Abby and Bella do that!!! We call it their pacifier. Abby is worse than Bella, she can't go to sleep with out one! So when we go to bed we make sure she has a pacifier.
You'd think he was a newborn pup, feeding off his mother..
Chester got a new stuffed bear.. this is the first one he is NOT ripping apart..however he is doing the strangest thing. He is sucking on it's nose/mouth area..and kind of "kneading" the body with his paws and his eyes are half closed like he's had a few Corona's! I don't know if he's in shangri-la or reliving his newborn puppyhood
It's a Bully thing <3
When the bully was created, it licked the hand of God and God stroked its head, saying, "What do you want, baby bully?" It replied, "My Lord, I want to stay with you, in heaven, on a mat in front of the gate."

That is too funny. Silva sucks on the blankets at night!
He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion. - Anonymous

Linus does that too - just to certain toys - I call it smurgling. I'm not sure where that came from though!

That's why O has 7 stinky bears. Each stinky bear has 2 arms and 2 feet and 1 nose. She suck on all 5 parts of the bear. She has to have private time with stinky bear or she goes nuts. EVERYNIGHT. It's sort of like nursing..sucking.

Vegas does the same thing, infact I look for special stuffies that have big noses because he has done this since we got him and still does. I thought it was weird until I joined this site (I think July is when I found EBN) and started reading how many bully's do this. I grew up with dogs, and have had many, but I have never seen this behavior until Vegas, I wonder if it is just a bully thing? He is in his crate as I type with his monkey suckeling away with his eyes closed.
This was his favorite Valentine Stuffie and him suckeling it, he kind of hugs it and closes his eyes when he does this to his stuffies.
