My old dogs/Chocolate Labs, Lord Budnicks/Buddy & Elvis (RIP both)Mia is the first pup I have ever seen that puts it her own toys away. She always tucks them in to a corner and puts her hard chewy one out front. The one I step on in the dark like a kid leaves a Lego out.
Ouch!View attachment 1962219View attachment 1962220
both would clean up their toys & stack them in a pile
next to the wall, in the dinning room, when told to,
Buddy was better at putting them away on command...
they both knew each toy by it's given name or command too
Squeaky, or tug toy & socky (several socks tied in knots),
spike ball, big ball, Green ball or blue ball,
blue bone (like silicone), just bone, or tennis ball was a favorite

Baron my current English lab (18 months) now, spreads them all over,
he not really a ball dog (strange for any lab), more sticks & stuff to chew on
& barely or doesn't get the concept of putting stuff back,
or organized toys, he wants them all out, in the middle of the floor in the front room
where we all sit
he barely gets the concept of fetch, still a free spirit, selective hearing
it's more like selective toy approval or he won't do it unless made to

if he doesn't want to play with that specific toy,
he'll sort of look at you (I imagine)
looks at me like; 'what am I supposed to go get that ?'
He loves his 12oz plastic bottles right now...
the tug toys are a big hit too, he wants to tug/pull on everything
I had photos of it somewhere
I've went to a new browser, long story
but I can't find sh*t now
