Good Questions: Dachshund Pull Toy

Erika's wondering just how much is that doggy in the window?

Dear AT Nursery, I spotted this old post at Mod*Mom.
They were discussing the cowgirl print Dwell bedding and out of all the comments made, no one mentioned that adorable wiener dog pull toy. Has anyone seen this for sale anywhere? My little tot loves her babysitter's wiener dog and this would be a fun toy for her in between visits.

Since they're both low to the ground, it's no wonder your daughter has an affinity for dachshunds! Like a dog digging for a bone in the yard, we looked around for this exact pull toy and came up empty. But we're asking our readers for help and have also found lots of other weiner dog toys for your daughter to love.

We found this pull-along by Brio which is not as soft as the one in the picture, but we dare say it's just as cute and, when pulled, he obligingly wags his tail and ears. $7 at My Toy Box.

Similarly, this one gives a wiggle when you pull him, $24.79.

Bajo Toys makes wooden dachshund pull toys in bright primary colors or natural wood, $20.

And here are a few in the softies division which could make a great friend to a young girl:

Crocheted Dachshunds by Anne-Claire Petit, $44.

"Ruby" by Pillow, Pillow, Pillow, $69.

Okay, readers - we've founds some great weiner dogs, but not specifically the one in the photo - can you identify it?

Erika, perhaps if you contacted the marketing dept. at Dwell they might be able to point you in the right direction?

Looks like it could have been from Rich Frog, but I can't find that exact one

I e-mailed Dwell and this is the reply:

"I'm sorry but I do not know who made that toy it was a part of our photographers personal collection."

I almost asked for the photographers name but I got the feeling it was a dead end.
