Yes, Haley is big into playing with all kinds of toys. The funniest thing is when she brings me a toy and I’m busy at that moment, she brings another one, then another one, until I finally give in for some play time. In her mind, maybe she’s thinking “Mom really likes the squeaky chicken toy today!”

Harley is a toy dog, and I love to play with him. If I can only get him to put them back when he’s done, we’ll be cooking with Crisco. BOL

I have Blueberry’s toys neatly arranged near her steps to the sofa. She hardly ever touches them. I think they amuse me far more than they have ever amused her. I guess that makes me the giant toy she gets to play with! My last dog, Shadow, LOVED toys. She also loved destroying them. But that didn’t stop me from buying her a new toy pretty much every week.

I can’t imagine not having dog toys, surely they should have their own stuff the way we do?

Based on your pictures, I bet Asher thinks of Frankie as his favorite “toy.” 🙂

And maybe your camera is yours. It gives you a different way of playing with your dogs.

In reply to Emma. I suspect that you play more with your nose. In that sense, everything you do in nosework is like having a toy.

Yep, that’s Honey’s style too.

I try not to mind the squeakies too much since she finds them so much fun. But you’re right. Our pups pick the darndest times to play their squeaky symphonies. 🙂

In reply to Mary. I can just see it now. Roxy probably looks like a stuffie playing with a stuffie. :)

As a pup who has been fed from food toys since she was 8 weeks old, Honey swears food toys are the best. So maybe Bogie’s just a discriminating boy.

Although I am curious. Since Bogie appears to be terrier-ish, I wonder if he’d like a flirt pole, like cats do. It brings out the prey drive in some dogs as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flirt_pole

Asher will be 4 in a month and is such a solemn, sober chap most of the time. He’ll carry stuffies around and very rarely toss one in the air but as for play with me, nada. Beryl will at least catch one if I toss it at her and look interested for a while. Frankie will play tug but he won’t ‘give’ so that’s not much fun for me. My dog suck as playmates for me, lol! No wonder I buy their toys from op shops 🙂 I need lessons in how to be interesting to my dogs … other than their taxi driver to the beach.
