On a serious note we had a Lhasa when I was a kid. He had the typical easy dog toy two socks one tied inside the other. Then he ended up with a second one. The original had no stripes, that one was called Mr. Sockie. The other was white but had stripes at the top of the sock opening, that was called Sister Mockie. He consistently would retrieve the one asked for. Now here's the kicker. At Christmas we would add his stocking in the mix. If we said get your stocking he would ignore all his toys and run and sit under his stocking out of all the family stocking that were hanging.
