Ellie should really have been called Linus - when she's tired or feeling a little too collieish and naughty, she will carry a blanket around in her teeth and suck on it like a baby. I'm not sure where she learned this habit, but it's apparently pretty harmless and some dogs will do it all their lives.
I bought her this little doggy blanket because really, she's too small to be carrying around the blanket from her dog bed right now.
