Boys and Their Toys

Our vet calls Shaq "property dog" because Shaq owns and takes care of personal property--his toys. On the evening I took this photo, all of Shaq's toys (except this Kong) were neatly arranged on his dog pillow--so neatly that my husband asked if I had organized the toys. I hadn't--Shaq had arranged them. But the first toy we bought for Shaq, this red KongTM, is his favorite. As you can see he also sleeps with it, usually between his paws, though sometimes he rests his head on it. We have to smile when we see how well he takes care of his toys and how much he enjoys this one! In the photo, you will notice another boy toy (the TV remote) on my husband's lap.
