The German Hunting Terrier, Tyko, loved to play and would amuse himself if no one else was playing with him. He enjoyed throwing objects from a height and then retrieving them so he could repeat the action. So, one time, when his human was using a ladder to finish a task, he climbed to the platform above him, grabbed a piece of wood, and dropped it on his head. As they moaned and looked up to see who had dropped the wood, Tyko went downstairs and got the piece of wood back up so that he could drop it again.
