    Milly has been in playing with her toys. She now has every toy out of the box and spread all over the floor. After taking these pics she went and found a comfy spot and went to sleep ;)
    I wonder which kid I can convince to clean up her mess ;D

    It's a fundamental puppy right to empty the toy box! ;D ;D ;D Got to check there isn't a new one hidden at the bottom.

    Lol yes she does need to get to the bottom. There are a couple that she really loves but she still gets them ALL out just in case. She had a lovely time though and wasn't getting into things she shouldn't so I was pretty happy.

    But that's tidy compared to a teenagers bedroom!

    Well at least my teens don't have the toys just clothes lol. And I can get them to pick them up. Better work on Millys tidying up skills ;)

    Hah! We spent an afternoon on "put your toys back in the basket" training. Was great fun. Even more fun taking them out all over again to get a treat for putting them back in. ::)

    Fun, but didn't result in a tidy floor! ;D

    Pongo's favourite toys are the sticks he finds outside, to bring inside and then chew into tiny little bits and spread around the living room. ::) Milly is spotlessly tidy by comparison!

    Yep sticks and cardboard are Millys all time favs. She completely destroyed a cardboard box on the Matt this morning. With my permission. I then paid my 11 year old daughter $2 to pick it up. Everyone was happy lol. Milly got to rip up the box, Courtney got some money and I got 15 mins peace:)

    Im constantly tidying up after Otis. He loves to raid the bin for bits of rubbish he can chew into tiny pieces and scatter around the place.

    You need some child labour, Maggie ;)

    Annette, sounds like one of those win-win-win situations to me!

    Totally a win on all side. I got to enjoy her destroying something without me having to clean it up:) always a win, Milly got the pleasure of the destruction, and Courtney got the money. I guess she can call the only loss in having to clean it up. She didn't seem to mind at all lol. I think she loved watching Milly destroy the box. She was probably wishing she could do it and get away without having to clean it up. It's a dogs life for sure.
