Golden Retriever Is Obsessed With Collecting Massive Rocks

The Dodo

She's VERY serious when it comes to collecting rocks and will even trade them for dinner. We talked to Yuma's dads about how they support her rock habit.

00:00What does Yuma like to collect?

00:04Rocks. So many rocks.

00:06An average walk with Yuma is usually spent pushing rock the whole time.

00:12And screaming at the top of her lungs in her yippy, high-pitched, valley girl bark that only comes out for rocks.

00:22The neighbors hate it.

00:24We think she's just either smack-talking the rock or telling the rock how much she loves it.

00:30That's too big. That's too big, buddy.

00:36Yuma's doing the saddest walk to bed because she doesn't want to give up her rock.

00:43Good girl, Yuma.

00:45Every night.

00:47Okay, good girl.

00:49Yeah, I'm tired. It was a long shift at the quarry.

00:52She just picks a rock every day.

00:55Look at what she came out with.

00:57Do you think that one's too big?

01:03And you can't break her focus.

01:05No, there's no breaking it.

01:07Yuma looks for rocks anywhere that she can.

01:13Oh, she got it.

01:15You're such a dork.

01:17She was diving like eight feet under the water to get at the rocks there because they're marinated so they must be worth more.

01:25Every day is a bad day when you're Yuma.

01:32How was your walk?

01:34It was pretty uneventful.

01:36Excuse me, it's time for spa day.

01:40She still has a rock in her mouth.

01:44She doesn't get overwhelmed by choices.

01:47She goes, no, this one's speaking to me.

01:51Let me see. That's too big.

01:54I wish I could be that decisive.

01:57Somebody thinks she's getting away with something.

02:02I for sure don't see a rock in your mouth.

02:07She'll trade a rock at night for dinner.

02:11Are you so hungry that you're prepared to barter?

02:14When she's ready to eat, she'll come in, drop a rock on her food dish, and be like, okay, I'm ready for dinner.

02:22Oh, lucky lady.

02:25Have a good day.

02:27And Steven Petsmart will take this as payment.

02:30Once she's done with that rock, she puts it into the bank, which is the rock garden.

02:36She checks it every day, but she never takes from it.

02:43We stopped buying toys really about a year ago because we're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not digging.

02:50Nothing is going to trump this.

02:52I know people are probably going to suggest that she's got a mineral deficiency.

02:57Buddy, that's too big.

02:59I have spent thousands of dollars on blood tests.

03:02This dog is not deficient in anything other than a lack of rocks.

03:07Let's go.
