So true! When Lorka was a pup, she used to drag things to our bed and hide them neatly All sort of things, from her toys to other 'treasures'. Once I found under my pillow a box of unbroken (!) eggs , which was quite an achievement for the 'little devil'.

It's true what Ina and Mijke write about determination of the pack leaders when introducing home rules.
We've noticed incredible empathy in our both CSV pups. They were relatively patient when we went to work and they HAD TO stay on their own crated (or uncrated), but they used to 'cry' or mess around when we just went out socially!
