| Is your yorkie a fetcher? Malibu is ADDICTED to fetching his frisbee and ball. Anytime we are on the couch, he brings one of those to us and keeps going and going. Didn't think this was a typical yorkie trait so I wanted to see if there are any other "yorkie retrievers" out there. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I send hours a day throwing toys for Cali and she leaps and runs after them and brings them back. Her latest trick is she brings a toy on the bed and whips it off and then looks at me like go get it. So I guess she wants to take turns retrieving!lol

| Yes! Holly loves to fetch-mainly her stuffed rat and duck,but also a squeaky newspaper! Great way to get attention! My son taught her at 10 weeks old and she has been keen on fetch ever since.

| here too Abbey goes & goes & goes..............she loves to run & fetch her toys! She exhausts us for heavens sakes! Beamer on the other hand is more laid back, not to mention sneakier........he waits for Abbey to bring the toy back , than rips it out of her mouth and than drops it at our feet ( with the look of "am I not the greatest" )........lol! You gotta love them !

| Oscar will play fetch just as long as somebody will play with him. He is good to bring it back to you, it is the letting go part he has a problem with! If I ignore him he will drop the toy, and I have to grab it really quickly or he will take it away from me...he is so funny! He wants you to throw it for him but he does not want to let it go so you CAN throw it!

| That is exactly what Malibu does! He will drop it if you ignore him with this look on his face like just try to grab it mommy. Then when I do, he beats me to it and I have to wrestle him for it all over again. |

| romeo is not a fetcher. if he can't hump it or eat it he's not interested. toys and fetch are not his thing. my mom's 2 yorkies are major toy and fetch players. they play until they collapse! |

| Diva LOVES to fetch. She will play for hours! The letting go is also a problem for her. She also likes to drop her ball a little far away and then whe nI get up to go get it she grabs it really fast and runs. See, she also LOVES to be chased! She is crazy!!

| Yep.. I have just spent hours playing fetch with Ella. She brings every toy she possesses if you won't play, she even tries to put them in your hand... or your ear if you are lying on the floor!! |

| This is so great...I'm playing fetch with Schatzi as I type this....SHE DOES NOT QUIT!!! She will bring EVERY SINGLE TOY she has until I throw something; anything. If I try to ignore her, she'll try to put her toy in my hand and gets close to my ear and barks. LoL....it's sooooo annoying, but I always end up playing with her...haha....they're sneaky....
