dryoasis88 | 08-12-2013 09:42 AM | I have a klepto too! Hepburn doesn't steal things in the house, he is remarkably good at recognizing what is his and what isn't (although I rarely leave anything in his reach that I don't want him to have!)
As a puppy, he chewed through my apple iphone headphones, but that was a one time deal.
He does, however, take bottle caps off plastic bottles and hide them. I give him larger ones occasionally, but only under my supervision and for a short time. You can't put any bottles on the floor or lower tables in my apartment or else they will be uncapped!
He also steals from my work!! I work as a nanny and he is allowed to come to work every so often and play in their fenced yard when the weather is nice. He loves it, 4 crazy kids, ages 2.5, 4, 9 and 11 to play with and no leash!! But I always find a little toy or knick knack in his bag when I get home with little doggie bite marks on it. I have started checking his bag before I leave with him so I can return the items before they get to my apartment. My boss thinks it is hilarious, but that may be because he has never taken something important to her or the kids. His favorite is wooden blocks. I have to be super careful! |
