| Fetch and tug of war are Tucker's favorites. He also loves a good back scratch. He loves to play a game where I hide his toy under a blanket or behind me and he crawls all over me looking for it. Walks are a great way to entertain him. He likes when we try to teach him tricks, like sit, stay, come, turn around. He doesn't realize he's working....thinks it's all play!

| bunjee likes fetch and tug of war. we play chase too but i only let him chase me, i don't chase him. i don't want him to think running away from me is a game. i have a cat toy at the end of a stick that he loves to play with as well. we also do a little bit of light wrestling where he would get up, run in a circle around me for a bit, then we'll wrestle again. and sometimes he'll just run in a circle or a figure 8 in the condo all on his own. |

| Tiki is the worst fetch player ever. He's great at going to get the toy, ball or whatever I threw, but good luck trying to get it back from him! Alls he wants is for me to chase him! And he also does the same thing when I finally get the ball from him or am in the process of trying to take it out of his mouth, he just thinks my fingers and hands are the new toy and starts chewing them! It's so funny, it's like ok, who's playing fetch with who? I think He's got me fetching more than I've got him fetching! He almost seems to be taunting me in some ways. He'll run, get the toy and then lay down half way back to me and start staring at me, like "ok mom, come and get it, I dare ya!" You gotta love it! |

| We play fetch mostly with Aggie. Every now and then we'd have a major race in the house. |

| Oh and one more thing, are your Yorkies like this...no matter how many toys I buy my little guy, he wants nothing more to play with that whatever I have in my hands. I mean anything from a pen, to a piece of paper (or better yet toilet paper which has been one of his most recent favorites), to the telephone. I tell ya, why do I spend money on new toys when alls he wants is toilet paper? |

| OH this is a fun thread!!!! Ok Tigger loves to play "Chase me and then I'll chase you." It starts out with myself or my boyfriend chasing Tigger and then we turn around quickly and run away from him and let him chase us and then we go back and forth doing that. John(my BF) Loves to hide from Tigger and call his name. Once Tigger realizes he can't find him, he'll run around the house looking for daddy. then he'll begin to whine. John will let that go on for a couple minutes and then he jumps out and Tigger's surprised to see him. Tigger will,also,bring his toys and set them on our laps and will look at us as to say "you know you want to throw it come on now!" Or he'll throw it for himself if we don't do it for him. I tend to rough house with Tiggster(my new nickname for him). I'll push him around and I'll make him dizzy and he'll bark at me or mumble. It's hilarious. John and I will say get him/her(whoever we want him to get) and he'll bark at that person and then play bite them and kind of do this front leg jump thing (where only his front legs come off the ground). But whatever you do DO NOT play like the other person is hurting you. John and I will kiddingly play rough with eachother (no hitting or stuff of that nature, just tickling or even just saying "Ow Tigger help!!!") and he'll bark ferociously and bite the person doing the damage(most of the time he'll bite the right person) it's so much fun.

| Dolce loves to play fetch and has gotten rather good at it. She almost always drops the toy back at my feet if I wait a couple of seconds. If not, then it just turns into a game of tug 'o war. She also has a REALLY funny obsession...my underwear. LOL! When I get in the shower in the morning and put my pajamas/underwear on the ground, she goes MAD trying to find my underwear in the heap. It is SOOOOO funny! I've made it kind of like a game by wrapping them up right in the middle of everything, so she spends forever trying to get to them, but usually can't in the end....I don't really want her to get to them, so it works for both of us. Oh! And I'll also put a towel or blanket over her and let her wrestle around until she gets out. It's SOOO funny when she finally pops her head out and has CRAZY hair! I love it!
