pouncey sucks.
he sucks on his bed. he gets a corner in his mouth and sucks on it. sometimes he falls asleep with his bed in his mouth.
we always say 'pouncey, stop sucking on grammie's bed' (the bed was a christmas present from grammie), but the sucking doesn't stop.
he isn't chewing or shredding it, he is just sucking on it. for long periods of time.
i just googled "dog sucks on pillow' and the conventional wisdom seems to be that dogs who are taken from their mothers too soon may suck on pillows. like sucking thumbs. a security thing.
pouncey was taken from his mother at 5-6 weeks since she was too old to make enough milk for all the puppies.
and now he sucks on his bed instead.

we once rescued a cat that would suck on ear lobes. if you cuddled the cat, she would eventually make her way up to your ear lobes and suck.
that is pretty adorable! i wonder if she was trying to nurse...seems likely!
