Ball "Herding"

[Soda-pop]

we have one of those balls at work for the dogs to push around the play yard and Soda just runs up to it and bark- screams at it and tries to bite it. It's a hoot.

 

And LOL @ Paula and the crook- maybe they turn it into a game of giant croquet?

The crook is in case you need to help your dog. It's a sort of ball herding polo thing... without the horse. Or the herding.

You, too, can own your very own HERDING BALL for just a mere $90.

$90 for a ball? Mine get tennis balls and $5 soccer balls. The soccer balls get popped, but they don't care.

Sorry about Miss Piper's ear. No advice on how to mend her formerly pointed ear, but one thing I did noticed on my recent trip back home to Bucharest was that all the street dogs that had been spayed/neutered/tagged and released ended up with uneaven ears on the side of the tag. So anything messing with the cartilage there makes the ear flop. Pretty weird to see so many one-up-one-down dogs in one place.

 

They all end up looking like this, which is absolutely adorable

 

 

 

And no, this is not a Border Collie mix as I've never seen a BC in Romania, but it's the closest thing I've met to the real thing

I have had to gently educate several people I know about this "ball herding" thing. Don't get me wrong, it looks like its a fun game and as a game I have no problem with it, but balls ain't livestock...
