Mine are constantly wanting to play fetch. And its so hard to disappoint them when they sit there and look at you with those big brown eyes. Even more when my female starts her high pitched 90 dB bark of terror. I suppose I could do a better job of training her to stop the barking, but that also takes a great amount of effort, so we have reached an agreement. It's just easier for me to command her to sit and shut up. If she does that for like 10 seconds, then I give in and toss the toy. And I feel vindicated. But I would be interested in a STURDY electric toy that would move by itself and actually hold up to an aggressive Yorkie attach. I am not a big fan of the toys with the food inside.
