Excellent, Ellen. He looks like he loves the teddy. The expression is wonderful. You amaze me with these fabulous images of your mouse families.
Marjorie Wallace
A darling image. I have quite a few teddy bears and some of them are Hermanns. How very precious. I have a miniature Polar Bear on a leash by Steiff. It would be a perfect prop for your little fellow. This image is another instant favorite for me.
Christopher E...
awww and he’s handling it with a lot of love and care, and chances are he doesnt have a clue of who hermann is, all he cares about is mama is getting him out of cage and talking sweet to him…lol this is a wonderful shot, very good detail and good timing :)
Ellen replied
You were exactly right Chris, he likes all the attention and the vanilla-pudding i had put on the back of the bear :)
Thanks!
Cvail73
Well he certainly looks happy about the present! :)
Glitter
awwwwwwwwwwww this is soooo adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
again fabulous work Ellen!!!
really wonderful!!
Ellen replied
Thank very much Glitter!
Christopher E...
vanilla pudding?
? oh yea, they are getting way to big, i member the days when just jam would do the trick!! lol (i think they know they are stars now) lol
Ellen replied
Yes, they are a bit overweight :) I know…...
AnitaInverarity
Awwww so beautiful, he looks like all his christmases came at once with his new bear xx
SandraRos
He is still beter looking than the bear !!!! I am a teddy bear collector so I know those bears are expensive, please tell me he does not destroy his toys ! ?? Excellent and suppurb capture !
Sean Farragher
lovely shot
Ellen replied
Thank you Sean!
cherylc1
awwwww!!
Ellen replied
Thanks very much Cheryl!
Marjorie Wallace
I have more than a hundred Teddy Bears that I have collected. Hermann ranks right up there with Steiff, just not as famous and the company is not as old. My little Polar Bear is about 2-1/2 inches high and about 4-1/2 inches long and is standing on all fours. So precious that I keep him in my China Cabinet with the rest of my collectables. I just know my cats would want to play with him. He is made from mohair.
Ingrid77
Perfect shot, as always!! I love it – all of it – the way he looks and the tiny bear – soo sweet!
Ellen replied
Thank you very much Ingrid!
Marvin Collins
Tooo cute!! I love the expression!! I love your rats!!
Ellen replied

Marjorie Wallace
You can find them on ebay. I recall getting some from England, Holland and France when I was collecting. Usually a better price than from a store.

Gilberte
Your Witje looks so kind with his new Teddy.Durf jij pudding aan een nieuw collector’s item smeren Ellen? Krijg je het dan nog proper?
Ellen replied
Ja, ik moest wel, anders houdt hij de beer niet vast!
Ik kreeg het inderdaad niet goed schoon. De achterkant van de beer zijn hoofd is nu helemaal hard. Jammer, maar ja:)
Bedankt Gilberte!
