YTers Sunnie and ShodanUSMC have donated the most darling teddy bear and yorkie for the raffle at the Reliant Dog Show in July. Thank you SO much Sunnie and Steve...these precious darlings will bring much needed money for the YHR foster pups!
I had received a Smilebox prior to their arrival and found them to be absolutely darling! The day the package came, I anxiously opened it to get a good look and oh my goodness, I was just floored. They are beyond gorgeous! Even prettier than the pictures if that is at all possible.
Sunnie does awesome work! I had heard so much about her from other people who own her bears...... her website is:

So, without out further adieu, I introduce to you: Linda Lu and LuLu

Their description:

Linda Lou and Lulu

Linda Lou and Lulu are a one of a kind mohair teddy bear and yorkie set designed and created by award winning teddy bear artist Sonya Shaw of Sunnie Bears. Linda Lou is 16 inches tall standing and was made of soft honey tan kid mohair. She has 100% merino wool felt paw and foot pads with hand stitched claw details, a hand stitched perle cotton nose, German glass eyes, and hand shaded detailing. Linda Lou is fully jointed (head, arms, and legs) with hardboard joints and stainless steel bolts, washers, and lock nuts. She has flexible armatures inserted in her arms for pose-ability. Her one of a kind dress features paw prints and puppies with an embroidered bodice proclaiming her love of yorkies, topped off with a sheer red bow at the neck. . She wears matching red sheer bows in her hair.

Lulu the yorkie was made of long soft silky golden tan and black mohair. Lulu is jointed with hardboard joints and stainless steel cotter pins at the head and front legs with fixed hind legs. She stands 3- 4 inches tall and also has a hand stitched perle cotton nose, German glass eyes, and hand shaded detailing. Her top knot is tied in place with a red “show bow” with gold edged trim and Swarovski crystal details. She also has a soft, fluffy, deep burgundy bed for napping.

The artist, Sonya Shaw, has been making teddy bears professionally as Sunnie Bears for 10 years. Her designs have rewarded her with many National and International awards, including the prestigious TOBY (Teddy Bear of the Year) award in 2004, the Jeju Teddy Bear Museum award for bear of the year and artist of the year, the USRA award in 2006, and first place awards at the Linda Mullins Show in San Diego, CA. Her bears are owned by collectors and teddy bear museums world wide and have graced the pages of many International Teddy Bear magazines. This one of a kind set was created exclusively for Yorkie Haven Rescue and retails at $250 for the set.
