Speaking of yummy toys . . . my Sheppie friend Riley just did something that probably has us all beat.
He ate his Mom’s laptop and power cord! Not even my road flare trick or Codie Rae can top that one.
Geez, he was just trying to help her by getting rid of that box that makes her so mad all the time. His Dad didn’t scold him too bad though since Wiley Riley was smart enough to not get caught in the act. But later, check this out; his Mom came home with a new chew toy for him!
Hahahahaha! We Sheppies are the smartest dogs ever!
Class, Pay Attention!
Chew a toy of Mom and Dad’s + Don’t Get Caught = More Toys!
I think maybe Riley should come here and share some of his other lessons with us, don’t you?
Pawesome learning lesson! I think I will keep that one in mind the next time Rhys and I need some new toys! Thanks for the tip!

Dawgs….here’s more lessons. Just remember…you have to plan and manipulate your humans very carefully to:
1. AVOID a vet visit no matter what (you do remember where they stick those thermometers, don’t you?)
2. INCRIMINATE the kitties if at all possible (after all, cats have extra lives to spare)
3. ALWAYS get a toy surprise out of it.
Write this down:
Humans + Guilt & Worry = Toy Surprise
Okay, so get this as an example….even though pop fixed mom’s ‘puter cord thingy for now, she still wants an apple cause her ‘puter is on its last leg (sorry Tripawd friends, absolutely no offense meant). I can’t wait. I love snacking on apples! I’m planning now for when mom gets that new apple-tasting laptop ‘puter. I heard her say one time that an apple a day keeps the vet away. See…lesson 1…check. Next, I just have to figure out how to incriminate the kitties! Any ideas?
Great tips – thanks! I love toys almost as much as I love treats. Hmmm… incriminating the kitties would be brilliant!

When Jack was younger he ate 2 couches, my cell phone, pulled up the linoleum in the kitchen, and stole a pair of my sister’s shoes (the $300 pair to be exact). He then got sick of chewing up “stuff” and decided to go straight for the money by pulling some cash off the table and going to town on it. Thankfully, he no longer does this, although I did walk in on him trying to open his treat holder that he had stolen from my purse. However, the doggies are too cute to be mad at for very long 🙂
Wyatt – when did you turn into a kangaroo? That picture looks like its straight from the outback 🙂
Excellent lessons Riley, you need to write a book!
Hey Jack, thanks for making me look like a really Good Boy! Hahahah!
My Mom thinks I look like a ‘roo too, and sometmes a Tasmanian Devil.
Dad has one of those hard plastic Apples. Riley, you try eating yours first, let me know what it tastes like OK?
A ‘roo! With what looks like poo on the ground!
Oh my. A laptop and computer cord.
I’m impressed. 🙂
Oh my, oh my – all i did was nose a coffee across a laptop.
it went snap, crackle and pop – BUT momma figured out she better run me and the fellas and THEN work…
