Where did I put that other sock?

I'm sure you've heard of the "Dryer Phenomenon" - you KNOW you put in a PAIR of socks, but miraculously, only one of the two exists when you take the load of laundry out of the dryer.

Here at the Kane house we experience the "Buckeye Phenomenon" -
only it's really not as much a phenomenon as it is the result of a curious terrier.

He 'finds' something and runs off with it triumphantly

(or in this case, secretly) leaving us to wonder where we put said item.

With all the baby socks, clothes and toys we've been accumulating we have this challenge not only with socks, but toys that rattle

and generally anything that fits in his mouth.

And since he doesn't destroy them, it's hard to yell at him ...

Poor Mallory. It wouldn't surprise me if he stole the socks off her little feet.
