For this 20-year-old dog named Tessa, her biggest possession is her plush banana and she really enjoys sleeping with her toy hugging her.
Tessa is a little bitch who adores her mom, but she certainly can’t compare to her plush banana, she’s happy when she snuggles up with her toy, even though it’s only fabric and padding; for her, it is her most precious possession.
This little girl’s adoptive mother Shanna Loren bought her the curious toy five years ago when another dog she adopted damaged Tessa’s favorite toy.
Shanna told The Dodo:
I found it in a trash can at a pet store, but I knew it was the size of the toys she likes, she immediately picked up the banana the moment I gave it to her.

When they have visitors at the house, Tessa shows people her precious toy and makes sure it’s seen and praised.
Shanna added:
She wants people to recognize him before they go to leave him, and when she leaves him, she puts him in the bed he considers best.
Tessa doesn’t let old age or her hearing loss get in the way of her goals, her mother also comments:
We ask the guests to tell her that they saw her banana so that she can lie down, it’s funny now that she is deaf that our friends shout at her:” I LOVE YOUR BANANA, TESSA!
Shanna comments:
She never accepted that it was a “toy”. It’s his only small possession and it’s his life.
You’re never old enough to cuddle your favorite toy, at least Tessa thinks so and her family finds him adorable.
