| Yorkies Playing FETCH??? I was wondering if anyone else's dogs are obsessed with playing fetch. Both of my dogs are like this, especially Baron (our 1 year old). He will wake you up with his toy in your face, barking at you....wanting to play fetch. I didn't think Yorkies were supposed to want to play fetch? Does anyone else's dogs do this??? I find it so weird |

| My Shelby Rose wears me out wanting to play fetch all the time. Anytime you sit down, she's right in your face holding her "newspaper" she wants you to throw for her. She's just so cute. :^)

| Joshua loves to play fetch too. Every time I sit down he drops his toy by my feet, and begs me to play fetch with him. He will keep bringing another toy for me to throw until I start playing fetch with him. One day I refused to play fetch with him, because I was watching TV. While watching commercials, I decided to look down by my feet, and I saw all of his toys by my feet. It was hilarious to see all of his toys in a pile by my feet. I am trying to set a specific time during the day when we will play fetch. Cesar Millan said the leader of the pack should initiate the game. |

| Yup, fetch is Winky's JOB! He will do this from the moment he gets up until the moment he lays down for bed if he could! He likes variety too, sometimes it's just a small 3 inch stuffed animal, sometimes he likes a 8" plush bone... |

| Sammy plays fetch with her fishy, which is bigger than her head. It's not always "fishy time" but when she decides it is, watch out. Otherwise, if it's not fishy time and I throw the fishy she just looks and me weird. She is so silly. Loki will fetch anything for a treat. Seriously, if my socks were on the floor and I said "fetch my socks" he would bring them to me, but ONLY if I had a treat. It's funny because most of his commands he will do without a treat, like sit, down, drop it, leave it, stay, kiss, wave, etc.... as long as he is periodically rewarded. But if you want him to go run across the room and fetch something you better have a treat that he can SEE. Lazy dog.

| Count Roxy in with the rest of the "fetchaholics." She takes turns between bringing her toy back to me or to my son. When we have company she is very careful to include everyone in order just like a mom to keep kids from feeling left out. When we start to slow down in our end of the game, she will switch toys to re-new our interest. I take her to potty first thing in the morning, she brings me a toy very next thing. And the next thing. And the next.......and so goes her preference for her daily routine. It is a tough job for a little girl to properly train her people, but Roxy is persistent, and it would seem her hard work is paying off!
