    She kills a lot of critters in the back yard (we have a dog door, so she can go chase them whenever she wants) but surprisingly never disembowels them (and rarely eats them too). I don’t get it.

    She does “kill” her toys the same way she kills critters- grabbing them by the head and shaking them as hard as she possibly can.

      Looks and sounds like lab behavior. Though I’m sure other dogs do the same. I had a lab mix growing up that was great at catching just about everything, but got bored once they stopped moving.
