OmG! I swear, it must be the name! Our lab, Heidi plays the same sort of tricks! Except-she likes to sneak into bed before my dh and lay her head on his pillow and then pretend she's dead asleep. He has to drag her to the end-and she never misses a beat-keeps right on snoring away. And she doesn't want to play ball-but waits for every opportunity to steal it from Holly-and then places it between her paws and won't give it back!
