Buddys Bear

Buddy was ripping up stuffed animals Paw over paw, tail over head Making sure to rip off their eyes Tearing out filling, making them dead. I was buying the expensive dog toys at first. Later discovered he would rip up second hand too. So bought used stuffies from a resale store. Side by side, he would eliminate two. While shaking a sleeping bear, he started to care. He began carrying this one around, loving it instead. It has a recording, plays the Lay Me Down to Sleep Prayer. Buddy now sleeps with this little bear under his head.

I think my mother had something to do with it. She would have never let him rip the head off this one.
