THE LASER. **pics**

[veegan]

so my dogs go INSANE for the laser. I mean, I thought Brock was crazy for it, but Alki has shown a whole new dimention to the laser insanity. it is such a great "toy" because they run so hard and fast for it, even though my apt isnt very big. I created a pathway for them to chase it and its an AWESOME way to wear them out FAST! especially alki.. I mean you really have to see it to believe it. lol so anyway, I took a few photos of them today. They both know "bounce" (jump straight up in the air for a toy), and Ive been shining the laser on my closet door and telling alki to "bounce" up for it, and she wants that thing so badly that she can jump almost to the top of the door for it! (brock is actually a higher jumper than she is but he wont "bounce" inside. I think he feels like theres not enough room for him. even though he has no problems flying through a hula hoop inside.. lol) the space where my closet is, is really tight, so it was hard to get pics, and I couldnt get a full shot but I think you can get a pretty good idea lol:

They are so fewfwegnoger cute.
I'm glad you finally started to post on here again. I've been dying to hear more aobut Alki since I first "met her." She's precious.

Love those 'smiles' in the last pictures.

[chocolatepuppy]

Too funny! Alki really jumps up there! :D

[luvofallhorses]

LMAO too cute!

[Glacier]

Cute pics! My cats go nuts for the laser, but I've never tried it as a dog toy...hmmm, where is that thing?:D

[DogLover9501]

Omg, those pictures are too cute! Alki is quite a jumper!

I love those smiles, very happy(and pooped) pups :)

[CagneyDog]

LOL. So cute! You have two silly mutts, and they can sure jump high! :eek:

[Flatcoatluver]

wow you did a good job on catching the dogs up in the air. I gotta try the laser one tiem maybe they might like it

[veegan]

I took some more pictures of them going crazy again tonight. dont know why I didnt think of this earlier (!!!!!) but I shined the laser on the FRONT door, so I could stand far enough away to get a full shot. lol:

she was sooo tired from running by this time that it took her a few moments to muster up the energy to jump!

Holy cow, that dog can JUMP!

Glacier my cats love the laser toy too, but I never thought of trying it on the dog either. Mine needs new batteries though (so I might as well just buy a new one...)

[GoldenLuv]

aawww so cute

my dog's do the same thing if they even hear the lil chain that is on it they look on the floor and start barking and going nutso

[Jadapit]

Lol, great pictures! Its amazing how high a pit bull can jump isnt it?

[lvpets2002]

:eek: OMG the same camera hammmsss && how so so adorable.. I love the picture that looks like the black dog's foot is one the other one's head for an extra lift..

[veegan]

Mine needs new batteries though (so I might as well just buy a new one...)

YES the batteries cost almost $8, and Ive seen these lasers at the grocery store for the same price! the batteries in mine were really low so the dogs had a hard time chasing it, so yesterday I bought new ones and thats what spurred the photo shoot. :)

same with mine, if I bump the chain and they are in the other room they come racing out here whining and spazzing out. it is so funny!! they have super sonic hearing! lol

haha yeah I thought that was pretty funny too. she did fall on him a few times lol

[lute]

haha! that is funny.:)

[EssTer]

LOl...silly pups :) great photos ;)

[finn's mom]

Awesome. Those ones of Alki stuck to the front door reminded me of those velcro suits that enable you to stick on the velcro walls that you run and jump on. That's what it made me think of. I've never tried that toy with Finn...

[Iilo]

Awesome pics!! My parents would KILL me if I let my dogs do that to the front door ;)

Just a word on lasers, they're awesome to exercise the dogs physically... but mentally they can end up confusing the poor things. They never get any REWARD for catching the laser... as it's just a beam of light and they can't get physically get at it.

[Giselle]

:eek: Alki can really jump!!! Have you trained her for agility? Methinks she'd make a greyt competitor.;-) Speaking of batteries, Alki's name always reminds me of the word "alkaline", LOL.

[veegan]

yeah I plan to do agility with her! once we finish basic obedience Im going to do intermediate and then we will jump (haha) into agility. :) would love to try flyball with her too. she LOVES fetch and has super high toy drive so I think shed be great in both sports. started agility with brock but then we stopped, and Im trying to start back up again but the trainer in my area doesnt have any classes scheduled yet.. :p

[jenfer]

"inspired" by your pics, I took out the laser pointer and my little one went crazy! lol.

[veegan]

hehe :D everyone loves the laser!! (except ruby lol! she would rather herd brock around while he chased it)
