Bailey with buried nose

I've posted before about how little Bailey loves to rest his head on a soft toy while he sleeps, usually by taking the toy into his mouth and using it as a prop.  The other evening I noticed a new twist on this procedure.  For some inexplicable reason, he had buried his face inside a long lambidoodle toy and had it wrapped completely around the outside of his mouth.  His nose was totally buried in the middle of the toy, even as his head was pointed straight down.  I listened carefully to see if I could hear him breath but I couldn't detect any sounds — yet the gentle up-and-down motion of his body told me that yes, he was very much breathing and alive and well!

    I would love to see a video montage of Bailey in his various sleeping positions. It would be a riot!

    I thought I had commented on this one but I am not seeing any. The comment section has been acting strangely for me the last couple of weeks so sorry if this is a repeat.
    I just think little Bailey is so cute. It just doesn’t look comfortable to have your nose straight down like it looks to me in the picture. It’s so cute how each one has their own way of finding just that right “ahhhh” spot!

    We have a Mini Schnauzer puppy that also loves to sleep with his toys all around him..he rests his head on either a lamb or his duck.
