What wonderful pictures!!! Auggie’s brother doesn’t look too upset about not getting a turn.

Auggie is perfection. Strong, confident and coordinated. Eli is an alert student. Great photos.

Is that a Jolly ball? We buy a couple a year for Roxy Rottle. They are also used as horse toys, but Roxy would sell; her soul for hers. The other big hit here is a Varsity Ball. It's too hard to puncture and (in some versions) is too big to fit in a mouth. Our daughter's Bulldog would chase his and use his chest to maneuver it like a soccer ball. He would have run himself to death without human intervention.

No. We have had jolly balls that last for years. My friend found it online guaranteed to last a lifetime. I didn’t last three minutes.

People who issue these guarantees must have toy size dogs. Roxy can obliterate a jolly ball in a matter of days by surgically removing the air valve. Our varstity ball is the only thing that has defeated her...at least for now.

We have found two virtually indestructible kinds. One is the big Kong ball with the handles. Auggie puts his teeth through them, but they don’t deflate. They’re the red and orange ballls you’ll see occasionally in my photos. The other is the floating green ball of unknown manufacture. I know them when I see them.

Too funny! Same with some of both the dog and cat toys we've had. But we have found that Kongs last quite awhile, with even the puppies.
