I’ve known of a toy poodle that would take small objects, and assemble a collection of them, hidden behind a chair or under a cushion, or behind a chair AND under a cushion. Its owner suspected that the dog was acting out instinctive nesting/mothering behavior that would have been normal if she were doing it with puppies instead of cell phones and TV remotes.

Our dog actually does that. The century-old Persian rugs are the main target, followed by under chair cushions. Brilliant animals, huh?

Could be worse.

Not exactly the same premise, but this one reminds me of Sideshow Bob’s battle vs. rakes on “The Simpsons” …
