Looks like Erica is up to her weird antics in New Zealand again…

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - A woman in New Zealand says she is breastfeeding her pet puppy because she wants it to protect her baby daughter as they both grow up.

Kura Tumanako [aka Erica Peterson] told the NZPA news agency Wednesday that she had started breastfeeding the Staffordshire bull terrier pup after her baby stopped taking her milk.

“I didn’t want to waste it so I gave it to Honey Boy,” she said.

According to NZPA, Peterson said she had fed the dog twice a day for the past week but would probably wean it off in about six weeks’ time. Her baby, now 2 months old, is on bottled milk.

“I wanted to raise it (the pup) with my baby,” she said. “I wanted to bring it up with a baby. It will protect her as they grow up,” said Peterson, who lives in Nelson in New Zealand’s South Island.

“He drinks more than the baby. It doesn’t hurt, but it’s a little bit ticklish.”

E, if you’re that desperate for someone to suck on your jugs, just let me know. I’m sure I could find some takers over here in the states…
