Does anyone else have a thief in the house? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

My 2 dont nick anything but i have just been looking after my friends lab for 3weeks while she was away and he is such a thief!!!! Every morning we would get up to find allsorts in his bed....shoes,socks,sweet wrappers,footballs...you name it he has pinched it in the last 3 weeks lol. He's gone home again now bless him, im missing his funny antics.

We've been really lucky that Tatum doesn't bother things left laying around EXCEPT any underwear (clean OR dirty) left laying on the floor. But usually only my youngest daughter's clean panties that are laying by the tub while she's in it. Doesn't mess with the pajamas laying there though. And when she does it, she actually seeks someone out and makes sure they see her so she can growl and give it a good shake. Then she drops it and runs for a toy. Just her way of saying hey, come play!

I LOVE THIS!!!!! I want a sign like that hanging in my home. I had something like that about Christmas. Don't pee on the tree and stuff like that. Made everyone laugh who stopped by for Christmas.

Saw this on a Tshirt at THIS site.

Yep, my guy is a thief too.

RhondaJones · 04-04-2007, 07:26 AM

Well, it sounds like most of us are living with little thiefs!! We can't get mad at them ...they're just too darn cute! I loved the "its mine"....very cute!!!

Dina_Nichole · 04-04-2007, 07:32 AM

Mostly only my Trixie Bear is a thief

She believes everything is her's and I do mean everything!!!

Sorry to say, Bubba is now 2 and still steals anything and everything. He is also a "cookie trader". But he has also taught his sister the art of theft. Only thing is if he steals something and she has nothing she tells on him by yapping!

BubblPopElectrc · 04-04-2007, 08:03 AM

Britney used to be an underwear thief when she was a puppy, but she doesn't really do that anymore.

Brooklyn is pretty bad about it. I just try to avoid leaving stuff out.

Dixon30 · 04-04-2007, 08:17 AM

Madison likes to steal clothes too, and she doesn't steal food from you, but we had been looking for our remote control to the t.v. for 2 weeks, we thought the kids had lost it, well we found it in her carrier hid under her blanket, her rule is " if it is on the floor, it is fair game

"

Thats tooooo funny!!!

Oscar is a "lil" thief too. Funny thing is, he'll take take my hubby's snicker which is twice his size and weigh a ton, and starts running off with it.

Now he mainly "protect" my clean laundry from his brother Cooper (sheltie)...who would parade around the house with whatever he can grab...and Oscar will try to get it back...if I'm around he'll drop it in front of me, if I turn the other way...he'll run off and hide it.
can't get mad at the little bugger though...he is just so cute...

Cidney · 04-04-2007, 08:59 AM

SAHDREAM - where did you get that pup - tent? It is so cute, my boys would love to have one!

Patti · 04-04-2007, 09:00 AM

Pixie wil take my shoes from the back door one at a time and move them to the hall and get the other shoe and then move them one at a time to my bedroom. WHen I take my socks off she takes them and puts them by my shoes!!! I think she is telling me to stay home.

simplyyorkies · 04-04-2007, 09:28 AM

My Zsa-Zsa loves daddies socks. Why anypuppy would put them in their mouth is beyond me! He comes home every day and takes off shoes and socks at back door. If Zsa-Zsa is out of her xpen she is in there ready to nab a sock. Eva waits for her to return with the sock and they both sit on it, daring anyone to try and take it from them. Crazy pups

annabelle's mom · 04-05-2007, 09:42 AM

Besides being a laundry "thief" Annie likes to take the draft blocker (a 3 ft long beanbag "moose" that I have at my front door and bring it to me. Its at
least half her weight, but she insists, with much grunting and snorting to hop up on the foot stool and bring it when we are watching tv. Guess that's what makes her strong....all that hauling things around !! Like you say...who could resist such a cute, precious Yorkie.
