Nugget Fornia is the name of my oldest and most cherished stuffed animal. He’s a beanie baby golden retriever and is about 23 years old. I think he was made in 1997. He’s just one of the Fornia family of stuffed animals. There’s
Bog (which is where the name “Bogland” came from)
Log
Nanook ( C )
Nanook (S)
Sally

Sally
Thalia
Corey
Bally

Susan
Goldie
A few more
(ahhh… Isn’t “A few more” just the best stuffed animal?)

You can kinda tell the difference between the golden retrievers
Nugget has a flat head and matted fur
Thalia’s eyes are sewn a bit to the side, so it looks like she’s glancing off to the side
Corey has an unusually tall snout
Bally looks the most normal
Malty has a wide face
Quentin has a crooked nose, it wasn’t sewn on correctly
Susan’s ears are the biggest
Goldie looks the most deformed. Her eyes are really low and the ears have a weird shape
The rest have no names

You are quite an expert on distinguishing your stuffed animals

There was a few predecessors, Fetch, Nugget (the first), and Cali.
Cali was the oldest. By now probably 26. Accidentally left him in the Barcelo hotel in Playa del Carmen.
Nugget is about the same age as my current Nugget, and I lost him at the Double Tree hotel in Times Square
Fetch was my sister’s golden retriever. He was scooped up by the school janitor and we never saw him again.

For the Nanooks
Nanook ( C ) has a medium sized face and looks like the posterboy.
Nanook (S) had his eyes sewn close together and always looks serious

For the Sallys
Sally (1) has a normal looking snout
Sally 2 and 3 have snouts that extend to the top of their head. I can’t tell the difference between them.

I could say that it is because I went to Austria and liked it, but the real reason is because I think it looks cool.
