"Lovey" quest

I read that at about 3-4 months old, it's sometimes helpful to introduce a "lovey" (stuffed animal, blanket, etc.) for your baby to soothe himself with. Someone gave us an adorable "Rock-A-Bye Dog Infant Security Blanket" and Hayden absolutely loves it. It is so cute to see him snuggle it. I tucked it in my shirt for a few days to get my scent on it, and give it to him in the car and at naptime. He likes to suck on the nose and the paws. The problem is, it's good to have a 2nd lovey in case something happens to the one they have, and I just looked online and IT'S OUT OF STOCK (of course!)!!! There's time to switch him to a new lovey, but frankly I'M loving this lovey too and would like to find another one just like it. We got it as a gift and I've gone through all the baby shower records to try to figure out who gave it to us to see where they bought it, but can't figure it out. Please tell me if this looks familiar and let me know if you know where I can buy another one:

Jacqui, another suggestion is to introduce a second different "lovey". Since he is still so young and new to his lovey, it may work to have two different ones that you can alternate. That way, you can find something at a store you choose and can hopefully find again if need be. Just a suggestion, but I know that it will get harder to change once he gets older.
