Kacee has never been much of a thief. She is at times, but not very often. Now, Muffin was a different story!
She loved to steal things just for the fun of it. However, she had a stuffed doggie that she loved. So, whenever she "stole" something, I would just pick up her stuffed doggie and she would drop whatever it was she had in her mouth. It worked all of her life, because she had that doggie all of her life.
