Drummer in Snow
Originally uploaded by tollers

Drummer had a blast and billroper and daisy_knotwise's house this weekend. We were trying to practice Better Behavior Through Exhaustion. Unfortunately, I got exhausted long before he did (but he was still a pretty good boy, all in all!).

Full set is here.

Next time y'all go up there, see if you can teach Katie Beth to throw the Chuckit.

The problem is that the return sometimes involves a bouncing swimmer's turn off of the thrower, which would be a problem at Katie's size! :-) It would be awfully cute, though, to see her throwing it for him.

Oh what a cutie!

[tollermom]

He _is_ a cutie. And he's sweet, too... just bratty. And the brattiness is my fault ("second child syndrome"), so hopefully it will go away quickly now that he's getting more concentrated Mom time.

Great pics! He looks like he was having a lot of fun.

What exactly is a chuck-it? I've never heard of them.

[tollermom]

He was having a blast. He's definitely Little Mr. Interactive Dog, though... he wasn't the least bit happy if I just left him in the backyard for awhile. He wanted somebody to be out there playing with him.

It's actually a Flying Squirrel (made by the ChuckIt folks, so it has a big ChuckIt logo on it, which is why that's what sticks in my head). Flies better than the soft Frisbees, and since it's permanently curved, it won't lie flat to the ground, making it much easier for the dog to pick up.
