I don't find this in NOAD, either. Of course, nouns and verbs are so
interchangeable in English that authors of the shorter dictionaries have to leave out
some relatively transparent uses. II assume that few people would assume that
"if you want to bed studdding your dog" would mean that you were going to sew
sharp buttons on it.
