Charlie has you very well trained.
Well, I like to think of it as being the other way around; but, I
may have blinders on! :rollhappy:

My dogs don't want new toys. They want the old toys
repaired...must be that lovely stench they like. Oh, I found some new toys they really do like...sterilized,
gen-u-ine bull horns. They don't stink like the hooves and you're less likely to step on the things in the dark.
Our dogs get miffed when I gather up toys and put them
in the wash. They sit in the laundry room door until the
toys come out of the dryer. Dogs are crazy wonderful!
Just noticed that Charlie does have a very sweet smile.
I do repair his toys....up to a point. But, I stopped with old Piggy, thinking that he'd fall apart at any moment. But, that was almost 2 years ago! Tough Piggy!
Charlie LOVES when I empty the dryer. I try to toss in one plush toy with each wash and apparently, to Charlie, a freshly washed plush toy, warm out of the dryer, is the BEST THING EVER! He comes running and shoves his head past me and into the dryer to snuffle out the newly clean and dry toy. He acts like I'm giving him a brand new toy...It's so much fun to see him SO happy!
Angela, I haven't seen those bull horns. I might try one if I can find them. However, Charlie doesn't chew......anything. He never chewed as a puppy and he doesn't touch any of his many chew toys, ever. The vet got me to change his kibble to a brand that he sells which has very large chunks, about the size of a walnut in the shell, so that Charlie would have to chew them and do a little bit of scraping his teeth in the process. It's worked. Charlies teeth have been getting whiter and they look more clean and free of tarter, overall. I was getting concerned about the health of his mouth because he never chews things to clean his teeth. I've tried and tried; but, he won't coooperate and let me brush his teeth.
Yes Marco, Charlie is the best. He's very loyal and affectionate and he always wants to do whatever I'm doing. I really like that he seems to love me too!
