Does your Yorkie "collect" things? Ok, so virtually since we brought SoCo home he's done this, but it's been getting worse in the last few weeks... He has a pillow that used to belong to one of dogs that passed, he adopted it as "his" pretty quickly, and he does this with his other pillow that was bought FOR him. He collects stuff, toys, paper he wants to/has shredded, our clothes (started with socks, but now has evolved to hubby's shirts and JEANS!), shoes and so on. He doesn't seem to chew our shoes or clothes, but he picks them up and deposits them there. This isn't as bad as him hiding his raw chicken in my closet of course (he's raw fed) which I've nipped in the bud by keeping the bedroom door closed, but it's come to the point if I can't find a pair of shoes, that's where I look! Do I have a crazy yorkie or is he normal? lol He's always liked sleeping on my clothes, but now there's no room for him on the pillow so the clothes belonging to my hubby that he's put beside the pillow have become his pillow. Tara :) |
Hmmm...a klepto Yorkie!! LOL!! Mine don't collect them, but Betty will pull t- shirts, jeans, pj's etc. off of the chair in the bedroom when she feels like it. |
My Baby will take all his toys to his bed one day the next they will all be on the rug infront of the sink, the next on the rug in the hall. It's pretty funny to watch. He does love to steal socks and slippers and anything else he can get his shark teeth on! |
Your post is so cute! You are not alone :) Sophie hides everything under our bed. We couldn't find any of her toys one day and looked all over the place. Every single toy was under there. She hides all of her stuff under our bed! She even takes tissues and shreds them under the bed. |
Apollo is my Pack Rat, but he only does this with treats that he hides under the bed :rolleyes: he also takes kibbles and hides them in my Moms House shoes:D |
yorkies are so entertaining. :D mine likes dirty under clothes:rolleyes: |
Ok, so Soco's not completely normal but not completely unique either. This is good to know. Really, he takes anything to the pillow, beside my bed or in my closet that strikes his fancy. Tripping over an empty box of Hamburger Helper (must have fallen off the counter) in the dark on my way to bed is always fun... lol Honestly, he's so quirky with so many things compared to the other 2 we had I don't know if I ever want any other breed again! Hubby keeps saying he wants a big dog (not while we have SoCo) but I just love him being so small (he's a teapot, but that's still tiny to me!) and so full of personality! Plus I'll be alone with any dog(s) we own during the week in the summers at our trailer, and having done it with 50# and 70# dogs, I'm so looking forward to being able to do it with a 10 pounder! |
Bengi hides treats. When he gets one for doing something or or just because, and he doesn't feel like eating it, he hides it "for later" :D. You can find treats in our bed, the sofa, corners around the house... |
Tucker collects my husbands dirty socks. Wherever he takes them off - office, bathroom, etc and Tucker gathers them into a nice pile in the bedroom. Now Tucker has been doing the same thing with my shoes. Who knew it was a Yorkie thing! |

Yes I have a collector!! I have several dog beds but I have one bed that is like a tent shaped bed. Allegro has it in his mind that this is his bed and that he has to collect everything in it from toys, paper,treats, anything he can find. It is so funny because he will take a toy and run right into his "rabbit hole" as I now call it and will hide his toy in there. It is so cute because he looks like a little rabbit running into his hole, lol. |
Bella doesnt do this, but one of her puppies does! she takes all the toys, socks, whatever she can get and puts them in the ex pen like her own little collection of "her" things! yorkies are priceless! |
Lucy grabs any sock she can get her paws on and hides it in the back of a closet. It took me the longest time to figure out where the socks were going. We have a shy little black kitty that sleeps in the back of the same closet and we think she is putting them in there with her trying to make friends. |
Callie takes EVERYTHING outside which can be kinda embarassing when the cute neighbor is out in his back yard and Callie drags my brightly colored panties through the yard and I just know he sees them lol |
Madison is doing it right now...she takes everything (including her food) and burries it in the corner of her doggie bed or the couch or my bed, and covers it up with a toy or her blankie...kinda gross but definitely cute haha |
So, Soco is methodical and organized?? I wish Bailey was more organized. Unfortunatly, I'm the one who has to put all her toys in one spot. (sigh) :) |

All of Chewys toys, my socks, slippers, tissues, pens are under my bed. I also got a new hamper and it has pretty large holes I guess for a hamper so Chewy has learned to take out the socks and underwear that are on the bottom. Right next to the hamper is her wee wee pad so I come home to a sock laying on her wee wee pad for the first 2 days after doing luandry every time. |
Tucker puts his favorite toys under the ottoman in the living room - that's his "hideout." I have yet to find the hiding place, however, for the socks he steals. He will steal any and all socks that he can find and I'll usually let him play with them as long as I"m watching him, but I now have about 10 socks that have no match. I've looked everywhere! It's so cute to see him running through the house with them though! |

My Emmy puts everything of any importance to her in her crate. She loves her crate and considers it her safe place. All of her favorite toys, treats, food goes right in there for safe keeping. She will even take off the clothes she is wearing and put them there. When she gets hungry she will return to the crate and have a snack or have some of her kibble. You and tell for sure what is important to her and to her way of life. |
yes, i often find a few odd things under the pillow in her bed:p |
3 Attachment(s) HEHEHE, yes my Paisley collects everything. :p She tries to be so sneaky and will even tiptoe away with any items she gets her paws on. :D Notice her little collection here. |
LoL I love this!!!! My Reese and waits EVERY evening for my husband to take his socks off ,has since he was a puppy and he hides them in the corner behind my husbands chair (which is his favorite spot has been since we brought him in the house). Its their game Reese will beg for those socks!!! |
Oh my goodness Dina Nicole, that's so cute. I should take pictures of SoCo's ever growing and expanding "pile" - soon it's going to take over the living room. The other day I found a boot (it's taller than he is, I can only guess he dragged it?) and both my not so light sneakers. Last night before going to bed I found a flip flop on the couch in the basement. I guess that's where he got bored with it, the little brat! lol |
