Henri the Hoarder My sweet little baby Henri has developed an odd trait, he has become a hoarder. My mom, my sister, and I all like to wear flip-flops, so since the weather has been nice we brought them out of the closet and Henri has started stealing them! He just takes them and puts them in a pile, he doesn't even chew on them, it is the most bizarre thing I have ever seen. I recently found out that its not only our shoes, but he has been takings like: socks, my bras:rolleyes:, stuffed animals, paper, pens/pencils, sticks, and he even stole my cell when I accidentally dropped it!:eek: I don't know what has gotten into him, he will pile his "loot" in the corner of the living room, under my bed, and he even hides his toys in his bed & blanket. Does anyone's yorkie do this? I would get a picture or a video of him doing this but he is just too sneaky, and when I do catch him, he just walks away like nothing happened :rolleyes: |
Sorry I have no idea about this behaviour but it's adorable!!! At least you know where to look for things when they are missing! :D |

1 Attachment(s) Here is his "loot" pile that I found under my bed, I found: a pencil, one of his toys, a sock, and two of my old stuffed animals. I don't know how he was able to get these things (except his toy), because I try to make sure that everything is out of his reach, but somehow he finds a way :rolleyes: |
that is so funny, the things these little babies do.......hehe |
my cedric does this! he doesnt want to share his toys with his sisters...and he loves my flip flops and my husbands slippers. hehe. |
Last night I laughed about this because Miss Mia does the same thing. Sometime in the night Miss Mia managed to hide 4 toys, 1 dishcloth, and 3 socks....UNDER MY PILLOW!!! Good Morning! |
Too cute, Priss is still in the destroy mode so everything is put away. |
That is cute. My little Ahi only likes to bury things in blankets or laundry piles. :D |
My Alfie does this . He has stuff everywhere he hides things all the time . Lottie likes to have a little rummage to see what he has LOL His favourite hiding place is underneath the covers in his bed, sometimes I wonder how he manages to sleep on top of all the things under his blankets ! |
I'm not sure why he's becoming a Hoarder, but it sounds like Henri's having a whole lotta fun! :D Too cute! |
Part Crow ? It is a fairly well known fact that crows are attracted to shiny things. They like to put all their tressure in an abandoned nest, or hole in a tree. What is not so well known is some Yorkies get Crow Syndrome also know as Doggy Kleptomania, yes, indeed. At first they just hide their stuff like, bits of kibble, a toy or two and mostly they hide this, in their own space like a doggy bed or crate. This often escalates to out right theft. You will find their stash grows, as the obsession is allowed to grow. They will some times have several horde piles of your stuff, like bras, hair scrunchies, contact lens solution, dish towels, dental floss, socks, flip flops, even car keys and toilet paper rolls. If this sad thing is happening to your beloved Yorkie please get help today ! Call 1-800- thisajoke. :D Seriously, many Yorkies like to hide stuff. It is only a problem if they obsess about it and begin guarding behavior. |

The only thing Henri hides under my pillow is himself, he looks so funny and cute when he does it too. |

How funny! I love the picture of his 'stash' lol |
Thank you so much for posting this. I feel so much better. One of my Yorkies hoards the bully sticks and I just thought it was an odd quirk that no other dog did. I am so happy to hear that another dog hoards something. |

Lol! That is too funny and so cute! Katie Scarlett will pile up socks when she gets the chance but we keep a close eye on our socks now that we know she's a thief! ;) |
Brody rounds up all his toys...which includes all of Mia's toys and anything else he 'Knights' as a toy...such as the scrunchies he's just pulled out of Mia's or his top knots. lol He has two groups...the 'bed toy box' and the 'love seat toy box'...and he retrieves any 'fallen' toys to their 'proper' location...he 'counts' them and rounds them up into a group. He also searches crinkly bags for new toys or toys 'hidden' by Mommy or Daddy. lol Mia hops pops and 'digs' and pushes and pulls rugs, covers, pillows, etc. over stuff to 'hide' it. Also, I had to put a crystal and pewter collector chess set in a cabinet years ago. Chess pieces were just 'disappearing' into thin air. I eventually saw a kitty nonchalantly pick up a chess piece off the board, jump down off the coffee table, and walk into the computer room carrying the piece in his mouth, where he dropped it into DH's leather computer case. When I looked into the case, I found all of the missing chess pieces. I guess he was starting his own collector chess set! lol I love the photo...too funny...lol |
My new boy is a hoarder, too! He collects socks, washcloths, his rope toy, and his squeaky bone. Thank goodness he's not a chewer. I had a mini dachshund many years ago that would chew the "middle" out of any underwear she could drag out of the hamper. Dex just wants his little pile of stuff. |

Thats funny and gross:p My sister has a mini dachshund that I swear has OCD, she will obsess over random things, if you open a cupboard or a store bag she just has to know whats in it.:rolleyes: She is a funny little thing |
I have a hoarder also Little Beau runs under my bed with everything! I found half a grapefruit rind under there the last time I vacuumed!!!! |
Beau Beau only weighs four pounds but he can knock over my trashcans (plastic) and gets all sorts of stuff for his loot pile!....he also got into my purse and thoroughly chewed up a $20.00 !!!!! |
lol, Ziggy "steals and hogs" slippers! if a pair is missing all we do is look in "his"/my room! |

He is not allowed to touch Mommy's things though. Might not be safe and I don't want it destroyed. He's pretty good though as he has so many of his own things and is so focused on Mommy anyway. He does like to get at my socks when I go into my bedroom or office but I quickly take them away from him or ask him to drop it. Won't be cute anymore if he ruins something. my friends'cat chewed up her favorite shoe and she cried like a baby!! ;) |
I wish dexter was a hoarder, he's more of a 'spreader'...toys everywhere! |

Not a $20! Chew up a $1 instead, lol :p:D |
Scarlett is a "spreader" too. The other day I had to call Apple because she had been walking on my keyboard and somehow ordered the new Van Halen cd!!! |
