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.
