One of my dogs brings sticks and gumnuts and stuff into her bed either to build a nest, or else she pretends they are her babies. She is sterilized, now, but still does it to a lesser extent. So maybe she doesn't want to play with the stick, it just might be a substitute puppy or nest-thing.

<p>Hi Ellie, our Joy is usually, where one of us is during the day - and at night. She's 'single dog' and enjoys our company and so do we. So there are vet beds and places for her all over the house. I can not remember, that she was more clingy before her heat, but she definitely was during the two months following her heat. To hinder her from constantly running up and down the stairs (following me, doing the housework in a house full of stairs), I used the 'wait' signal and told her, I'm coming back just now. Sometimes, I brought a treat back, to encourage her to wait. I like you new user photo! Harley looks like a beautiful young girl! </p>
