What's your dog's Favorite Game?

[pomtzu]

With stuffed animals she won't quit till the floor looks like it's snow covered and she gets that squeaker, (then we have to toss it) but she loves to attack the now "dead " animal.

Pom....is there a name for that ball you described? And where did you buy it, Pet Smart? That is a toy that would keep mine busy all day so I'd love to get her one.

Oh my - you described Myndi to a T. She's little but tough, and I used to call her Jaws because of the strength and speed she had in removing squeakers from toys - along with the stuffing. She could demolish one in a couple of minutes - she would go into a frenzy trying to get that squeaker out when she heard one. She has a toybox full of dead unstuffed animals, and even body parts where she has amputated a head or arm or leg!!! Her idea of playing with them now tho, is to drag them out of the box and scatter them all over the house!!! No - she doesn't pick them up and put them back!


I got that ball thru a mail order gift catalog a couple of years ago. I've never seen any in stores, but I'll check on line later to see if I can find anything like it. It not, I'll keep an eye out for it in gift catalogs. It operates by battery, so not something you would be able to leave on for her to play with at will. She sounds a lot like Myndi, so she would probably love it just as much as my old gal does!

They do sound alike don't they...I have body parts all over my house too but sometimes she picks them all up and puts them in her beds...yes bed"s" , she need one in every rom so she can decide where she feels like sleeping....heck no, she's not spoiled
I'll have to start checking the gift catalogues I guess but if you spot the one you got it from let me know...this is something that she would go nuts for. Batteries are plentiful here so I probably would leave it on all day... anything to keep that wee rug rat happy.

Molli's favorite game is soccer. She LOVES soccer balls, volleyballs, balloons, etc. She hits them with her nose. Too bad we can't play it much anymore, she yaps and barks so loud and we live in apartments now.

Sam LOVES fetch. He is so obsessed with balls it's unhealthy. lol. He loves to jump and catch them and does crazy flips and stuff! I know Cockers aren't supposed to be jumping up and down because arthritis is so common... but he loves it so much.

Springen loves any game as long as it involves running. He loves frisbee and loves to run along side us when we go biking. We have an RC car that goes 40+ miles per hour and he LOVES to chase it. We just can't let him catch it because he'll try to tear it to pieces haha.
He also loves to throw rope toys and stuffies in the air and catch them. He'll knock over lamps throwing his toys in the air! He's incredibly entertaining.

My chihuahua's favorite "game" is for me to sit on the floor and watch her chew her nylabone. She also likes tearing her toys apart, but of course I have to sit on the floor and watch that too, she's needs to have an audience, lol.

Jakes is chasing a ball. Laylas is barking.

When Koko was a pup our favorite game was fetch. She would retrieve what you threw, for as long as you were able to throw, be it ball, Frizby, or what ever she brought me to start the game. She wouldn't always bring it back , and then the game was keep the Ball away from daddy. When she was almost 1 year old, she came up lame that would result in double CCL repair. The surgery plus almost 12 weeks in a crate changed her desire to fetch. Now when you throw anything she ignores you and will not acknowledge anything. I can't understand this because she can run like a deer with no apparent pain. Her game now is "dont let daddy catch you". She will run full bore, straight at me, and then change direct at the last possible second. We have a favorite place on our trail that allows her to run a small loop where the trail splits. She will run around the loop then stop before getting in my sight. In pic-a-boo fashion, she will look back at me before charging back with another last second maneuver. I guess a good name is “dodge daddy and run”. oh, and that game also applies to the cat (Rascal) too. They will play this until koko is worn out and the Rascal wants more.

Autumn is getting too old for play, unless there is another dog or ferret playing with me and she gets jealous. She loves hide and seek with toys and treats still.

Naylee never learned to play before I got her. I guess her favorite game is run away from me when its time to leave the dog park.
