Ha ha , my one has done that from day one,, pants or knickers he will silently walk up to them,, silently pick them up and silently slink off to his bed,, where if you look you will find pants socks tee shirts, and remote controls lol. To them the smellier the better, wee, poo, B.O what we find nasty they find very attractive. What annoys me is mine will get my dirty socks and chew and suck them and get so into it he bites the toe bit off. The amount of times ive washed and cleaned socks and put them away, only to pull a pair on and find the toes missing, lol.He will also do it to pants and even tee shirts, only the other day i put a t shirt on and caught a view of my back in the mirror and their was all holes around the back of the neck, lol.

You just have to make sure they go in a laundry basket and do a strong correction if he dares knock it over and rob it lol. When im actually doing the washing and have it on the floor in front of the machine, that is their doggy heaven, they will sleep/lay/ play in all those lovely smells. 

You either have to catch them in the act and correct them or keep the dirty washing off the floor, which in their head is their domain,, so anything they find is fair game.

Yes all mine have a fetish for dirty socks & if the dirty laundry is on he floor there is nothing better than having a roll around in it.We have loads of spare socks,my son came down the other morning i did laugh.he just stood there & said look at my socks well i looked & there was loads of holes in them,he then said the other ones are worse can you buy me some more cause the stupid dogs have ate these ones he laughed walking back upstairs.

All my pups when going to new homes leave with the dreaded fetish.Its not long before the new owners are asking why they like socks so much

Cairo used to steal socks but my mum keeps a firm rein on the laundry - it was just in my brother's room that he'd run away with a sock and chew the toes out of them too.

 

My friend's Setter had a thing about stealing her knickers.  She was standing in her back garden one day, talking to her very posh neighbour who was complaining about the two dogs barking (she's got a GSD as well) when the Setter started to cough and wretch and then he puked up a pair of her knickers.  She doesn't know who's expression was the best - her own mortified expression or the neighbour's look of disbelief!!!

 

You wouldn't be having best Agent Provocateur with that lot about!!

hahaha, I have 2 steal and hide culprits, Harpo steals my bras and undies from the washing basket, then takes them to the back screen door where Leo steals them off him and pulls them through the holes in the screen door! (As they have both taken turns at ripping the fly screen cover off the door, its now just metal gride screen door)

They're parters in crime the little buggers, im sure Harpo just does it to see me chase Leo around the backyarn with my bra in his mouth!  Socks, shoes and stuff I can get get Leo to 'leave it' but if Harpo has passed it to him through the screendoor i have no chance!

Live by the Laws of the Staffy and you cant go wrong.

If I like it, it's mine.
If it's in my mouth, its mine.
If I can take it from you, it's mine.
If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
If its mine, it should never appear to be yours in any way.
If I'm chewing something up, all the pieces are mine.
If I saw it first, it's mine.
If you are playing with something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine

Yeah,mine trots off with pants,socks,shoes and kids toys too
Loves skiddy boxers
Anything really!
Watching tele last night and could hear growling and strange noises on the staircase,shes got a toy 5ft furry alsation from the kids bedroom and dragging it down the stairs by its head!
Then brings it to me on the settee wagging her tail and doing a funny growl as if to say "look at me dad,im tuff i is!"
Lost count of times I have gone for a pee and shes pulling at my trousers while I am trying to hit dead centre!
