haha! Every once in a while our dog will be super excited and run into a room and go to pick up the first thing he sees, and then he realizes that it's not his toy and drops it.

He knows what toys are his and if I tell him something is "mine" he doesn't ever touch it again.

My dog has been rebelling big time!! He loves all of lo's stuffed toys and his balls. He usually doesn't go for anything plastic or wooden but recently chewed part of a stacking cup. Grrr...it drives me bonkers! It doesn't help that when people are over they mistake my lo's toys for my dog's toys and play fetch with him...

ETA: @autumnlove: my LO loves my dog's toys too! Especially his deer antlers....ew!

Sophie was a huge target for us too. The first time I gave it to LO, my dog stole it. Luckily, we were gifted two so I just let our dog keep the one he slobbered all over.

Since then, we constantly remind our dog to "leave it" when it comes to LO's toys. I think he's getting the point and haven't stolen anything since.

I don't have a LO of my own, but I do have a few toys for when friends bring their LOs over. My dog loves them - especially the squeaky ones!

I bought a small stuffed animal for a friend's baby for Christmas, and my dog was able to sniff it out from under the pile of shopping bags before I wrapped gifts. I couldn't believe it when I saw him tearing it apart. Naughty dog!

There is one stuffed Lion that our puggle loves to... be intimate with... so we've had to wash it a few times and now have it up on a high shelf. They know not to mess with his other toys (we keep sophie attached to the stroller so they can't get to it), but stuffed animals are hard. I keep most of them put away and his lovies are always in his crib and car seat.

It's really cute that Liam knows which toys are for the dogs now and will pick one up and try to give it to one of them!! Our labradoodle will play gentle fetch (handing the dog toy back and forth) with him all the time!

He seems to know the difference between his toys and hers but he does look at Sophie like he wants to destroy her sometimes.

@mrs. tictactoe: We have a puggle too! Luckily we haven't had the issue of him getting intimate with her toys yet.
