It’s a common sight for dog owners to see a newly bought toy instantly getting ripped into shreds. Perhaps this is how dogs show that they love the toy. Pet owners cannot resist but forgive them too quickly as soon as they flash their adorable faces.
A Border Collie named Mika is a different case. Unlike other dogs, she sees to it that nothing happens to her toys. She took on the role of the designated toy protector since puppyhood.
According to Vanessa, Mika’s human sibling, anything that drops on the floor, she takes it away. Rest assured that no one gets to go near that fallen object.
Although ripping and chewing things sounds enticing for any normal dog, Mika likes to be gentle. She treats her toys with care and tenderness. She’s like a collector that takes good care of collector’s items to preserve their values.
Being a gentle dog, it’s not surprising that Mika’s toys reached an impressive number. During her playtime, she likes to spend her time with gentle cuddles. Even her squeaky toys are treated with the same gentleness as her stuffed toys.
Despite Mika being so careful with her toys, there will always come a time that they get smelly. It is when the family had to intervene and wash her toys. And getting the toys from Mika is the hardest part. But it has to be done!
To get the job done, Mika’s family had to create a strategy. One family member took Mika for a stroll to distract her. As soon as she’s out of the house, Vanessa started to collect her toys and started washing them.
Well, it’s not fair to trick your dogs. But sometimes, we have to do what we have to do!
As soon as Mika finished her stroll and got inside the house, she immediately knew something is not right. And finally, she saw her toys hanging and dripping at the washing line. She kept looking back and forth at her mom and to the washing line. After not getting any explanation from anyone, she sat on the grass and refused to listen to her mom’s calls.
She surely felt betrayed by her family. She stayed on her spot, determined to wait for her toys to dry.
All her toys are now filth free! And finally, the long wait is over. She is once again reunited with her toys and forgave her family as if nothing happened.
