I think it's adorable.


Every now and again, Tashi comes across a toy that gets extra special treatment. She carries it around with her when she'll be in another room for very long, she sleeps with it, and she gets miffed if I don't treat it respectfully.

Right now, that's her dino.

Today, I needed to move her dog bed out of the middle of the floor, so I tossed her dino onto my bed. She jumped up on my bed, grabbed it, licked it for a minute, and then sat with her paw over it glaring at me.

She once had a little elephant and giraffe that came same in the same pack. She designated one of them as a "toss/fetch/play" toy, and the other she babied. If I threw the wrong one, she would go get it, take it to the other side of the room/yard, and sit down with it and give me the cold shoulder for a while.

I find it really interesting, and would love to hear if anyone else's doggies do anything similar.

I'm attaching a picture of Tashi with her dino. Does anyone have any pictures of their babies with their favorite toys?

I meant to change the title to "Do any of your dogs play favorites with their dog toys," because I didn't want to give the impression that she's protective in a negative way, but it seems it can't be changed.
