I’m not sure I’m making this request in the right area however; I’m hoping someone can help me.

I’ve just recently placed my husband in a care home as he has Alzheimer’s Disease. He dearly loves our wee Rosie and I take her to see him every day and he sits and holds her so close to him and talks away to her. The home has suggested that maybe I could find a stuffed soft toy that would look like Rosie – i.e look like a Yorkie, for him to hold when I’m not there with Rosie as he seems to be calmed down when holding something soft and cuddly.

Can anyone tell me where I might purchase a stuffed toy that looks like a Yorkie? It would be easier for me to purchase in Canada as that is where I live but buying from the US would also work for me.

Thanks so very much for your help !
