Magical Blue Ball

The makers of iFetch designed a fun ball launcher that requires these small, blue tennis balls.  Our mom thought it would be a good idea to get the ball launcher.  Most dogs like to play fetch, and we are no different.  The launcher is a blast except we don’t drop the ball into the hole.  We just bring the ball back for mom to put it in.  If either Sophie or I choose to do it instead, the other one is just waiting to snatch it away.  That’s no fun!  
​
Originally, Sophie was the one who was all about the ball and the launcher.  Of course, I got a little jealous of my sister because she was getting all the attention.  So, I decided to join in the fun.  Now it’s all about me and the ball.  I cannot get enough of it.  The size, the color (blue is one of the colors we can detect), smell, etc. is unique to the iFetch balls.  Any other ball just won’t do.  Believe me, mom has tried.  I don’t know why I love them so much but it’s like my safety blanket.  I have one in my mouth most of the time and will even fall asleep with it.  I especially love a new one.  The smell drives me wild.  Mom restricts new balls to once a week or maybe twice if I go to the vet.  There’s always one in her pocket for after we are done with the visit.   It is officially my favorite toy and there’s no substitution for it!  

Until next time,
-Sam
