Oh Cailin I am so hearing you!!!!! I have two of this breed and a third on the way and I am still at a loss. What gets me more is they more than like to help with my chores but their own toys etc are a lost cause - I have tried every trick and less I sit there and point here to here it turns from tidy up into another play which results in more mess. Sorry I don't have any wise words of advise but I so sympathise and I'll be on the watch for some new hints.
