Charlie with his stone...

Djurhamn...

Charlie is sitting proudly with his stone that he has just carried home after his play down by the water...
He has always been obsessed with stones and carries them around with his head held high and his tail wagging like mad....Suddenly he finds a plant or shrub he likes and very gently places the stone as near to the middle as he can get it and then like a crazy dog rips all the surrounding plant up...Why he does this I don't know but it's an every day occurrence....Does anyone else have a dog with this behavior? This is why the back garden is mostly plant free...That's until we can have raised flower beds with a guard around them...
Jack doesn't have this obsession but he does play with stones and kicks them backwards and chases them around...


Thank you for your visits and kind words...
Have a great weekend...

Such a great shot of Charlie with his stone. Hard to understand the behavior but there must be a reason for it, perhaps known only to dogs!

He is so handsome and proud with his stone. Love this shot!
Don't have a clue to the behavior, but sure do like your story :)

A beautiful photo of Charlie. He looks to proud to have carried his stone. Our first dog used to love stones and would carry them around and kick them backwards too. You could throw the stone in the woods and he would always come back with the same one. The bigger they were, the better. Interesting behavior that Charlie does with the plant, never heard of that before. V

Charlie's teeth must be worn flat! We just lost our family dog and I've been looking for a new family dog - hope I find one like Charlie.

He just looks SO proud and happy! Adorable. My last dog, Tasha, loved stones, but not to the same extent! V
