I haven't had this problem yet but I know my Mom taught her dog to pick up all it's toys and put them away. I've been told the balls that you put stuff in and they have to roll them a certain way to get them out are a good idea. I've had my girl about 2 weeks now and I am amazed at how smart she is. She learns every command in such a short amount of time. She had lay down in about three tries and doesn't forget it. It's amazing.
