Wally is our modern-day Nose-tradamus. I wish I could do this with my dog and his equally ridiculous pile of toys, but nine times out of ten it's the giraffe.
Woke my husband who was asleep next to me with my hysterical laughter. Glad he fell back asleep when I laughed so had I cried happy tears. Totally beyond brilliant. Btw, I only had dogs who ripped apart the toys the minute they got them, except for one dog who did not want or care about toys, or chew on them. She also did not retrieve balls, or sticks. I did love seeing Mr. Toast (when I started laffing out loud), think about your post about toast. This post= truly brilliant. Thank you. I think we all needed this. I certainly did.
Thanks Amy. My current batch of dogs care not at all for any form of fetching. But I have read that dogs who are fetch obsessives are the ones that get recruited to work with the blind, the disabled, etc. because they come complete with a built in reward system. And my personal experience bears this out. Our dog Puppyboy was such a lunatic about balls that I was able to make this little movie about him with his complete cooperation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU-xgr_wTNE
Glad he cooperated. We learn so much from our animals. Wish I had known more when Elwood was still alive. He was not only a fetch obsessive but when he returned the ball to me he liked to tease me… going behind me, getting in between my legs and sticking his nose and face with the ball in front of my while he was behind me. Oh and of course then he’d make it a little difficult for me to extract the ball from his grip. Until of course he was ready! Love 💕 our animals. Love ❤️ Puppy Boy! What a dog. Thank you - great film!
Thank you ! He and I were inseparable and he was hysterically funny. So smart. Could open closet and refrigerator doors! Very protective of me. Sorry I did not recognize his abilities that would have made him such a productive therapy dog!
Loved this article. My fur baby does the same. I'm gonna see if I can get his mood from what toy he chooses. More for me as a distraction from this hell. Thanks for the idea 💡
We ALL need a stuffed honking vodka bottle now.
The best! HA!!
Way more accurate than Tarot.
LOVE this, hysterical! As a dog lover and doomscroller, I now have to get more chewy toys.
They LOVE stuffed animals.
The psycho Frenchies I dogsit love ripping them to shreds. Thankfully my pup treats them

That chair of stuffed dog toys is amazing.
Yes it is!!!
I sense a pattern ...

In our house, carry around black bear = sunshine. Rabbit = rain. though this can be reversed

I feel like I must have already mentioned Jim the Wonderdog in another comment. But it case I have not, please look him up. Dogs know everything already. You can also listen to this podcast where I might be framed as a "Jim the Wonderdog Expert," pay no attention to that label. I am merely a fan. https://www.kcur.org/community/2020-03-21/how-an-extraordinary-dog-in-depression-era-missouri-made-people-believe-in-magic
Brilliant! I think I need a stuffed honking vodka bottle. Or maybe an vodka actual bottle with real vodka in it.

Elwood sounds GREAT too.

Hey, totally off topic, but I wondered if you had any commentary on Bob Dylan’s onstage Christmas(?) decoration from the current tour. Photo from Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/DKD6ECcum5S/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
Marvelous!

I remember the piece in which you presciently saw through the facade of the essentially murderous nature of OJ Simpson. (Honey baked Ham).
Clearly you have the future on speed-dial.
Wow. I am amazing. I totally forgot about that piece. I really should look up the honey baked ham account and see who else we need to worry about.
