Yes, my 10 month old girl also does this. It seems to go in splirts and it's a good indicator for me that she's not getting enough exercise. I generally power walk her twice a day which adds up to about 3 miles. Some days she has more energy than others and the days when she's energized I try and give her a little more walking. I don't mind her bringing in a stick, toy, or large stone but the big clumps of grass with lots of dirt attached doesn't impress me. When she's in the house it's always a toy or her favorite, my dish towel should someone leave even a small part of it hanging over the counter. I've gone through a lot of dish towels since Tessa came. LOL

She is my second rottie to do this out of 6 that I've owned thoughout the years.
