Plushie Pro Tips: How to Win at Life (Without Opposable Thumbs)
By Doggie (with Pandy’s helpful notes)
Hi everyone! It’s Doggie, back again to share some top-tier plushie wisdom. You see, life can be pretty wild—even for a plush pup like me. But after years of snack testing, fort-building, world-traveling, and snuggling with the best of them, I’ve gathered some essential pro tips for winning at life.
No thumbs required.
Trust me: the path to happiness is often paved in crumbs.
If you don’t know where the snack shelf is, learn. If it’s too high, recruit a tall friend. (Pandy.)
Never underestimate the power of a surprise treat.
Pandy’s Note: “Also remember to share snacks.”
You can’t take over the world (or nap comfortably) if your seams are bursting and your fur is matted.
Brush your fluff. Patch your stitches. Polish your button eyes (if you’ve got them).
Feeling cozy inside starts with being comfy outside.
Pandy taught me this one: sometimes, the most productive thing you can do is sit still, sip some warm tea, and listen to the rain.
Or, in my case, curl up in a sunny patch and drool softly into a pillow.
Did you catch a falling leaf? Find a sock treasure? Invent a new dance move called “The Wiggle Flop”?
That deserves a party. Life is full of little wins. Make a big deal out of them.
Confetti optional but encouraged.
There’s mystery and wonder everywhere. In the closet. Under the couch. In the human’s purse.
Ask questions. Investigate. Build a plushie detective agency. Open a travel blog. You never know where a little curiosity will lead you.
(For us, it led to snacks and international adventure.)
You don’t need opposable thumbs to live your best life.
You need good friends, a cozy place to land, something delicious to nibble, and a heart full of adventure.
Keep it fluffy,
Doggie 🐾
