Most clothes pegs put on a washing line by a dog in one minute

The most clothes pegs put on a washing line by a dog in one minute is 8 and was achieved by Java (USA) in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, on 21 March 2026.

Trained by Lisa Rickards, Java didn't just place the pegs on the line, the clever pup had to first open each spring-loaded peg with his mouth before hanging it, adding a real layer of dexterity and precision to the challenge that goes well beyond simple pick-up-and-place tricks. Managing eight pegs this way within a single minute is a testament to the patience and skill behind Java's training, turning a bit of laundry-day fun into a genuinely impressive canine feat.
