Pooches: Mr. B Can Never Win

For Spring Break week we decided to take a bit of a break ourselves while sharing some of our favorite posts.
We always joke how Miss M thinks Mr B is her very own pet, here we were able to capture the exact moment where she usurps Mr. B's toy:
We make sure to supply the pooches with an ample supply of toys. Though most of the toys are shared, they each have their own toys. The problem is that the only toy Ms. M ever wants is always the one Mr. B is playing with. Typically, Mr. B will be playing nicely with a toy and out of nowhere, Ms. M will show a lot of interest. 
First she will walk around, spying on the toy.
Then she will ever inch so closely so he won't suspect
to the point that Miss M will be sharing the toy with Mr. B.
Without any notice to Mr. B, Miss M will slyly start taking the toy away
Using her monster paws to complete the take over. 
In the end, all Mr. B can do is look to us for some sympathy.
We usually try to dictate the rules and give the toy back to Mr. B, but the same thing will happen all over again.
Miss M is ever so cunning. One time, Ms. M got a different toy, bit it to make it squeak and dropped it in front of Mr. B. As Mr. B went to check out the new toy, Ms. M moved around him and grabbed the toy she actually wanted. This was the first time that I realized that she was actually smarter than me. Now poor Mr. B doesn't guard his toys and Ms. M will just blatantly take the toys away from him.
Are your pups sneaky with toys too?

Also:
Don't believe us? We were also able to capture this scenario.  And this one.
And look how often this happens.
Make sure to check our Facebook page with some hints about what the pups are up to this week, and to read this special message from Bessie-Belle's mom.

Our shepherd used to do that to my lab all the time!!! It was amazing to see their minds whirring away on how to get the coveted toy back.

Mr. B face is priceless......."you guys gonna do anything about this?"

Our pittie girl does this to our Jack Russell ALL THE TIME!

Sam his his "room" to take toys to. It's a Monty-free zone that lets him play and chew to his hearts content.

Mr. B., I feel your pain. My rotten little sister ALWAYS steals my stuff. Mom tells me that I should be flattered that Abby thinks my stuff is always cooler than her stuff, but I'm not so sure! ;-)

Oh poor Mr. B. you're making my so sad with that face!

And, Miss M. you are one smart pooch, but don't you think you can let him have his toy back?

In your defense though Miss M. you aren't the only toy thief, Dottie does it to Boomer too but she's not as sly about it. She just takes it from him!

Hahaha - too funny! I love it! Tess does the same thing - she has no interest in toys until Ed has one. But instead of being sneaky, she just comes up and takes it!

Poor Mr. B! Ms. M is too smart for her own good!

Poor Mr. B. He never gets a break!

Poor Mr. B! The same thing happens at our house, only our Felix is far far less subtle than Ms. M. Felix just walks up and takes it. We try to enforce the rules, often even producing a identical toy, but it's futile. What Fe wants, Fe gets. Kol doesn't so much as peep back anymore.

Miss M is TOO smart! Laci does the same thing, but not. She destroyed Apollo's, but not her's the other day...I don't know what gets into her, but maybe she is just hoping that we put both meals in her bowl for her alone.

Our pittie boy is tricky with us!! He will go grab a shoe so that we will get up from the couch to take it way and then he will steal our spot on the couch while we are up. :)

They are so great together!

OMG, that look on Mr B's face just cracks me up! Poor guy! I'm glad he's got plenty of other toys.

If there were not actual pictures of this I wouldn't believe it. Priceless!
