Uni plays fetch with herself. With a ball, she will sit atop the couch and drop the ball and have it roll under a chair or something, and she will crawl all the way under it to retrieve it. With a bully she will throw it and toss it in the air, and be sooo proud of herself then go and get it. :D

I left Mia for 3 weeks, and now she is being a brat.
She was very well cared for, but now whenever I sit down she pops up next to me with her ball and growls at me until I play with her.
In the morning I take her out of her crate for cuddle time in bed with me for a bit. I always hope she will go back to sleep, so I give her a chew, and she will only chew it if her butt is pushing up against me. Ummm no thank you!! But 30 minutes more sleep is worth a butt on my arm, leg, shoulder etc...
When I say come on lets go to bed, she runs to the front door....this is a new one..my hubbie would take her pee out front while I was gone, before she would go to bed. (Scares me to death, cause of the coyotes in the hills) Carefully I will let her go in our enclosed court yard...
If anyone in the family goes to the fridge icemaker in the door, that is her cue to run to the fridge and bark until they give her an ice cube. Soooo cute!!!!
She does the shopping bag thing too. Thinking if I bring anything home, it must be something for her.
If I am taking a bath she runs to get her ball, and drops it in the tub, bath time is not time for me to rest, but time for her to play ball. The best part of this last one is when we have guests!! If they use the bathroom downstairs the door does not always close all the way. If she hears the bath water running, she does not care who it is...she will shove into the bathroom and drop the ball in !! When my son was over, he was surprised, and happy to play with her! *he's a good sport!
When I take her to my girlfriends house, who has yorkies, she walks in like she owns the place. She thinks she is alpha wherever she goes. She goes to their giant toy basket, and will pull every toy out of the basket and cover the living room floor with each and every one. She is looking for the loudest, most annoying rubber toy ! When she finds it she will squeak it until our eardrums bleed......Then she is happy, and will sit on my lap.

Belle is really smart when it comes to her toys. If I take one out of her toy box to repair (nothing around Belle goes without some injury) She runs and sits beside where I sew and waits for me to finish. Then proceeds to take the toy and find the threads I put in and removes them. She use to have a big box of stuffed animals but is down to about three. I think she is trying to remove the squeekers and she also loves stuffing.

Belle is potty trained on pee pads as we live in Minnesota and it gets to cold for her or heaven forbid rains. She has 2 pads, one for peeing on and the other for pooping. She also has to make sure I see what she did as she gets a potty treat. If I ignore her she drags the pad out to show me. Really nice when company is there. Now she has noticed that I put her little piles in the toilet so as soon as she is done she runs and stands up and stretches so she can see in the potty and waits for me to flush then barks and runs in circles so proud. Just glad her 90 pound lab brother goes outside.

My husband teases that Belle is the only dog that goes for a walk in the afternoon and then has to go home so she can go potty in the house!

What hilarious furbutts we have, huh? Uni does so many funny wierd things. She has way too much attitude.

I HAVE to put ice cubes in her FILTERED water. If it's super hot and there's only one in there, she looks at me like, what? only one?! If I don't put any, she's like, What, no ice?! Spoiled?

When it's feeding time, and after I offer her some and she doesn't want to eat it, I pretend I drop it on the ground and say "You dropped one!" and she'll eat it, and eat the rest. :confused: Ha!

When she pees she turns counter clockwise, but when she does her "chase your tail" trick she turn clockwise. Hopefully she won't ever pee while performing her trick!

She waits for "Uncle" to come home (my BIL) and when she hears a noise outside she will growl. Most of the time she is sitting on a stool next to me on the computer. If she growls, I will turn to stool so she is facing the other way, but she will just turn and walk around to face the door again. I keep turning, and she keeps walking, so it's a little stool treadmill. LMAO! Put this on U Tube!

She LOVES chewing on necklaces. IDK why?? Possible mineral deficiency?

She sneaks in my purses when she thinks I am leaving without her.

Everytime I leave my shop to do an errand (my bf is still there with Uni) and I come back and pull into my parking spot, she pops her head out the door's glass to watch me come back. She loves you alot!

Everytime I come back from said errands with bags, she puts her big nose in there expecting everything in there is for her! Who else could you possibly be shopping for?

That's all I can think of now. How about your furbutts? What funny and unique quirks do they have? Please share!

Hahahaha!!! Such a cute story!!! yes before Uni did not know how to go outside, she would go for a walk then come back home to pee!

At our old house, once we got home, she would pee downstairs, then run upstairs to go poop!

Loved your stories, thanks for sharing!!!
