Busted, Flat

Where toys go to die.

Lola's New Toy

I bought a basketball today and Lola immediately claimed it as her new toy. Within 3 minutes of playing with it, she had managed to puncture it. She then spent the next minute eyeing it suspiciously as it hissed - getting down and barking manically at it. Since the ball did not retaliate, she determined it was not about to bite her and resumed playing with it.

Even though this ball will be quite deflated in the next 24 hours, it will still be a great toy. We had a "yard" basketball before and despite it being flat and I think being wedged one winter in the blades of the snow blower - it still served as a fabulous dog toy.

UPDATE: Just looked outside and the ball is totally flat! (see next post).

Happy Victoria Day

I feel really bad for anyone who had plans on camping this Victoria Day weekend here in the prairies. It was just nasty - rain, rain, wind, wind. But, today it is sunny and I got out in my boat and did a tour of the pond. Enjoy!

Apollo

My heart is breaking, another one has left us. "Apollo" - Kimberlite's Fly Me to the Moon - was a very special boy with a very special look. Our blue eye boy. Safe journey sweet one.

Berk and Ali

Berk (Dylan x Pal son) having a roaring good time on Wakaw Lake, SK. with Ali. I've also been told that Berk protects "his girls" (Ali and her sisters and friends) when they have "hen parties" at the cottage. He will not let any strangers on the property. Good Boy!
