Looks like one sad, sad Dobie.
But I doubt any of our dogs wouldn't have succumbed to the same temptation, locked up night after night in a building full of chew toys. ;)

Elvis’ Steiff Teddy Bear
While on duty protecting a rare collection of teddy bears at a children's museum in 2006, a guard dog inexplicably snapped and went on a wild rampage through the exhibit (valued at $900,000), ripping the head off a brown stuffed bear once owned by Elvis Presley.
Barney, a six-year-old Doberman pinscher, left a trail of furry limbs and fluffy stuffing in his wake. “He just went berserk," said the general manager of Wookey Hall Caves in western England.
The now-headless Elvis bear, made in 1909 and named Mabel, was valued at $75,000. "I've spoken to the bear's owner and he is not very pleased at all," the manager said. A human security guard had to chase Barney for several minutes before he was able to wrestle the four-legged offender to the ground.
