First, Happy Leap Day! Hope everyone enjoys the extra day this year!
When winter comes, Phod's Precious ball gets put away as we know it will get lost in the snow. Instead, we pull out his discs. This year I threw out 2 that no long flew, leaving him with 2. One which had been chewed a little and a great foam one which is perfect.
Phod is in love with his winter Precious, a now very chewed up disc that doesn't really fly.
 |
| Because sometimes it is so cold we don't want to play fetch, Phod leaves disc outside and it freezes into different shapes. It is stressful when he can't find it in the snow but 99% of the time he knows exactly where he left it. |
 |
| After Phod pulled it apart a little |
 |
| "Throw it or else" |
 |
| Bringing what is left of it back |
Disc will stay for the rest of the winter and then will find its way to the garbage can. I will make sure he has another similar one for next winter.

I wonder why dogs love the toy-carcasses so much... we have a monkey (or something what was a monkey once)what is Easy's bff now... I hat do make a knot in it to throw it and it is really a tatters now, but he always wants it back :o)
ReplyDeleteUm, I would never have even known that was a flying disc by the current look of it. BOL So glad Phod loves his winter precious.
ReplyDeleteThe snow looks like so much fun

Oh No the dreaded garbage can ~ things don't come back from there ~ that is the black hole that sucks things away.

Winter Precious looks like it's on it's last leg.
ReplyDeleteAroo to you,

Oh Phod! LOL! Zoe and Phee love destroying toys, too! :D
ReplyDeleteI think it's a stretch to call that a disc. It kind of looks like an old dishrag. :) I'm glad it still works, though! Playing in the snow is important work!
ReplyDeleteLove and licks,
