One more question, it looks like it has a texture to it. Not the smooth loofa toys. Is that correct? Opps! Make that two. Lol. They are different sizes too. My girls have two or three different sizes. |
...possibly tie, or sew, the old one and a new one together, and then once they have been played with for a while, and the new one has her scent all over it, remove the old one..... Just a thought. |

She may be a bit annoyed at first that yellow dog grew a tumor ~ but hopefully she will learn to love it :D:D |

I love this idea ! I was going to suggest cutting yellow dog open and wrapping it around the new toy, but like this idea better. |
I put some of the new toys in the laundry hamper with my clothes to get my scent on on them. Don't know if you could figure out someway to hold these two together to try to get some scent transfer. Good luck. |
1 Attachment(s) Attachment 353341 Here is a picture of Jada and Yellow dog...I couldn't get to load on my computer at work. You guys are so awesome to help me out with all your wonderful suggestions. I think I am going to try tying yellow dog to one of the other loofah dogs and see how that goes. I am scared to death to cut him apart and sew parts of him to another one. Lord...l sound like he is a real living thing. Sheesh the things we worry about with these little precious babies. |
Aww, Jada looks adorable cuddling with her yellow loofah. :) I am facing a similar problem with Max, although he likes other toys for playtime. His favorite is his security blanket and friend. It is the Ty Bow Wow Weenie Beanie:  Amazon.com: Ty Bow Wow Beanies Weenie the... He takes it for "walks" around the house after meals or when he is excited. I bought several of them, but he knows the original one that he has had since he was a tiny pup. Teddy has been chewing on it the last couple of days and now I need to sew up a couple holes on it. I hope Jada will take to the new toy. |
tie them together... |
Jadabug is so lucky to have a Momma who will do anything to make her happy!;) Not sure but, all of the advice here sure sounds good. My thoughts were to remove her favorite toy for 24 hours and replace it with "identical" one just to see how she reacts. Maybe rub the new one with the old one first to spread the scent...or rub a treat all over the new one to entice her. If she accepts the replacement toy, I'd start doing this with all of her toys...rub a little treat all over them and who knows...she might even branch out to play with other selections there in the toy basket! Thinking back 29-1/2 yrs ago when my daughter was about 6 months old...she attached herself to a favorite bunny-blanket toy. She had it with her everywhere until that fateful trip we took to Sea World and "bunny" somehow slipped out of her stroller and was lost forever! We did find an exact replacement minus the wear and repairs to the old one but, she did accept it...thank God!:rolleyes::D |
1 Attachment(s) Well we have a two headed Yellow Dog now and Miss Priss is sad and pi$$ed at me right now. I am going to leave them like this and make sure she has them next to her every time she is laying in her bed and in the bed with her at night. Fingers crossed that this works. Thank you all for your suggestions:) This little girl has me so wrapped around those little paws. And just look at that sad face:(Attachment 353348 |
Awww, look at that that precious baby. I looked through ours. Our yellow one is without stuffing. But we do have a hot pink one! :D Hopefully she will get used to the new one. Maybe after a few days take off the yellow and see how she reacts. Poor thing. Like miabellaamoure's daughter, my son got attached to a shirt. I remember having to wash the shirt every day because he would not wear anything else. But I did it and I did it faithfully. Until one day the "alligator" under the couch needed it for her baby boy. I will never forget his reaction. He sat by the couch, raised the fabric, and said "Alligator, bring me back my shirt!" It was the cutest thing ever. :D But alligator kept it and years later he is in to Aeropostale and American Eagle instead. Maybe poor Jada will get used to yellow dog being gone. Rosie and Mikki send her hugs and if she wants to try the pink one send us a pm! |

Awww that is sweet of you to offer, but I have another yellow one (not exactly like her fav) a grey one exactly like Yellow dog, the purple one in the picture and a couple of other:p surely we can get her to accept one of them. |

My daughter never lost hers and a couple months ago I found the bag of the 5 spares! Just donated them she's 12 now...but puppy (the original) is still on her dresser! It's always a good idea with puppies to get a couple of the fav. toy & alternate them from the beginning I do that with the Zannies Barnyard squeakers |
I had that issue with my oldest daughter - "Penguino" was lost when she was about 5 -she still talks about him and gets misty eyes over it and she's almost 10. I think that tying them together was a brilliant idea! I hope it works!!! I wonder if rubbing treats over the 'new' one will make it more appealing? |
Michelle, That shot of Jada with Yellow Dog almost brought a tear to my eye! I hope so much that she learns to love Purple Dog as much! If you end up having to attaching "parts" of yellow dog to another, I bet you could get two or three made from new ones + yellow dog? We name Zoe's toys, too; Pink Bone, Ducky, Crinkly Bug, Skinny Guy, Skinny Skunk... Keeping our fingers crossed for you! |
