That's awesome .. and gross at the same time :-) natural instinct is something that cant be bread out of dogs (easily anyway) ... like herding dogs (Blue Healers, Kelpies, Border Collies etc) will often round up things .. my Father had a Kelpie that would herd the local neighborhood kids when a car was coming down the street ....
I think that Yorkies behavior when playing with their food and treats is the hunting instinct as well ... some times I wish Holly would just eat her darn treat and not throw it around the room and do all the funky moves on it .... usually the Lab gets it as she "hides it" in plain sight :-P |
