Sydoo Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Georgia loves tissues. She doesn't collect them though she steals thems and rips them to shreds. Poor tissues don't stand a chance. New or used, she doesn't care. :laugh: Billie loves tissues too...but only used ones. I have a box of tissues on the coffee table that she couldn't care less about until someone takes one and uses it...then she watches carefully for a chance to snaffle the 'spoils'. She will thieve a crumpled one from my pocket if I'm not paying attention but quickly discards it when she realises it hasn't actually been used.

FlowerProwler Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Socks. Its the OH's fault, no matter how much I tell him to put them away, he still leaves them on the floor. So if I see Onyx dash from the bedroom outside you can guarantee he has a sock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dame Aussie Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Our backyard can sometimes look like an underwear graveyard It's always Mosley, Lili will only steal chicken if she can. Some of his favourites are any type of underwear/socks, remotes, a tub of 150 glucosamine tablets (why would he eat more than one???!!-Had to call the vet for that one but he was fine), shoes, apricot pips, body butter, bread, lentils (yep ), hairties, handbags and millions of other things. He is evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumabaar Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Franky loves stealing anything off the table- Only when I am looking so I will follow her and take it off her. She doesn't usually go more than a few steps before I tell her to leave it. She LOVES hair ties because she can flip them over her snout and has a 'favourite' one that she will go to great lengths to 'steal' in front of me.

kezzzza Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) We have just got a GSD baby girl and in the week we have had her, her crate has had almost everything in the lounge room in it. Empty plastic bottles, toys, treats that are not only hers but one she has stolen from her new brother and sister. Blankets, towels, bra's, remotes, usb cables, tissue box you think of it it's been there Thankfully nothing chewed up Edited February 18, 2012 by kezzzza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Daisy collects Barbie heads. She grabs the Barbie between her paws and then pulls off theirs heads and puts them on her mat. I don't know what she has against Barbies body :laugh: Your Daisy knows that Barbie has had work done LOL!!! My mums male chi used to collect my underwear. If it went missing it would be in a pile under her bed. Still dont get it, lol. :laugh: One of my Griffons used to go to the laundry, up-end the laundry basket and chew the crutch out of all the underwear she could get her teeth into... she also chewed the crutch out of my hubbies jeans :D Georgia loves tissues. She doesn't collect them though she steals thems and rips them to shreds. Poor tissues don't stand a chance. New or used, she doesn't care. :laugh: My Anatolian came to greet me just the other night when I got home from grocery shopping... I left the doors to my pickup truck open whilst bringing all the groceries into the house... Didn't realise that he had reached into my truck and grabbed the toilet tissue - the big 36 roll bulk pack..... whilst it is winter here at the moment, and we have only had one snowfall so far... next morning I bleary eyed looked out the window and thought it had snowed... blinked a couple of times and realised that it was the toilet paper, all chewed into little pieces scattered all over our front lawn. I hadn't even realised the night before that the toilet paper was not amongst the groceries My two working border collie pups are tool thieves... I find wrenches, spanners, screw drivers and even the big pipe wrench (which is quite heavy) scattered all over the paddock. Wish they would put those tools to good use and go fix something :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ons Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 the underwear incident completely forgot about Fostering a coolie x, it was winter so pretty well dark when I came home from work and didn't really look in the yard in the morning - went out on the weekend to find it littered with my underwear that the coolie x had stolen not a problem except the older bloke next door was always leaning over the fence talking to my dogs when he got home from work each day at 3 pm :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal House Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Yesterday I found two pieces of broccoli, an empty bag of treats, an apple, a roll of toilet paper (shredded) and an avocardo in Ferns crate. Last night I watched her move all her toys out of her crate and onto the big communal bed in the family room. My husband said “Fern’s moving out” :laugh: Does anyone else have a kleptomaniac dog? And what do they like to pinch! ETA to make sense Just so you know that Avocado is poisonous to dogs. Might want to put them well out of reach.

Abilene Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Doof is mental for tissues and socks. Kodiak doesn't collect anything, she just sits there waiting for things to be brought to her! :laugh: So Doof is the thief.... and Kodiak just takes possession of stolen goods..

Tapua Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Labs are natural retrievers so not wanting to discourage any retrieval and to hopefully keep a track of what they steal we have a 'bring to mum' or 'bring to dad' policy which means whatching TV involves collecting a pile of unwanted items, shoes. tops, paper, envelopes, knickers, anything on the bench, butter containers the odd knife (thats always relaxing) soft drink cans - full or empty - whatever until our Labs have finally decided to settle - it s slow process. ugh kids :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
