A Doggie And Her Blankie

Some dogs love toys, some dogs love people...Hydie loves her blankie.

When I got her, she came with a "hello do you see me" bright green and orange blanket. One morning when I was coming home from work, it was freezing! I grabbed a blanket out of the warmer, wrapped myself up and headed home. Later in the day when I got up, Hydie was laying on the blanket. She then proceeded to drag that blanket all over the house. I thought no big deal, she has a new blanket.

If you say, "Hydie, where's your blankie", she will get excited, possibly do a little "bull dance" and go find it and bring it to you. She is now on her second blanket, (maybe third) and loves it just as much today as the day she first found it. Every night, we will put one of them in her kennel with her. The next day, she will drag it down the stairs or up on the bed or on the couch. She wants to play tug of war with it and then, after hearing it rip, will sometimes give it a kiss as if to say "oh, I'm so sorry about that" and then want to play again.
Here are a couple of pictures with Hydie and the "love of her life". I'll have to catch some when she is bringing it down stairs.
