Thank you, Two Collies and a Mutt!

A few weeks ago we entered a contest over at one of our favorite blogs Two Collies and a Mutt. And we were fortunate enough to win one of the prizes! Our winnings consisted of three different bags of yummy Kong Chewy Treats! Axle and Clover have always been a huge fan of Kong brand toys. And I'm sure that they would really enjoy the treats. But since Axle has so many food allergies, both the dogs have agreed to donate the treats to the animal shelter. I know that the shelter dogs will be extremely appreciative of all the delicious treats!

We want to give a BIG thank you to Lassie, Petal, and Marquie for picking us to be one of the winners! If you have never visited this blog before, I highly suggest you give it a look. The photography alone is enough to keep anyone interested. Seriously, Lassie and Petal are completely breathtaking! And the post following the every day happenings of this group is absolutely wonderful!

RIP Purple Squeaky Ball

So it finally happened. Clover's very favorite, special purple ball lost it's squeaker... We have many many toys for the dogs. And none of them belong to one dog or the other. Axle and Clover are surprisingly good at sharing their toys. But the purple ball has always been special to Clover. Given the choice of every single toy in the toy box, she will always go for the purple ball first. And I'm really surprised it lasted the almost full year that it did.

We don't buy the dogs a lot of toys with squeakers in them because they go out so easily. And normally squeaker toys just don't last that long in general. So we were stoked when we found a Kong Ball with a squeaker in it. Clover loves squeaky toys, and she loves this ball.

 I so wish she had been facing the other way in this picture. I can only imagine the excited look on her face.

We will still keep the purple ball for Clover. Its not destroyed, just punctured from being chewed on. Clover keeps trying to get it to squeak again. Shes been nosing it, and pushing it around with her paw as if she's saying "Wake up! Lets Play!" She has over a dozen other toys to choose from, but it makes me sad that her favorite one is now broken. Next time we go to PetSmart we will have to pick up another one for her. 

 Clover, is that a UFO?!
