My dog is obsessed with balls. Literally OBSESSED. Balls are her crack-cocaine, her reality TV, her chocolate, her highly-addictive substance in any/all forms. She sleeps with them and brings them wherever we go - like a little kid with his or her favorite toy. I'm pretty sure she would risk life and limb to get a ball. I wouldn't put it past her to, for example, jump out the window of a speeding car to get a ball (she has not done this yet, thank goodness).
Dingo's not a huge fan of swimming but if she spots a ball in any type of body of water - ocean, lake, stream, raging rapid - or better yet if you throw a ball out there for her to fetch, she's jumping in after it without hesitation.
The other day I was joking with my friends that I want to make her a little doggie shirt that says, "I Love Balls!". This idea started as a joke but then I got to thinking, I do have a few other doggie clients who are almost as obsessed with balls as Dingo (although the only dog I can think of that is truly in love with balls like Ding is a client named Leila, who is mentioned earlier in this blog :). That said, these shirts could be a hit!
What do you think? Would you buy your dog a shirt that said, "I Love Balls!". I "reckon" it would make a great conversation starter. If you are a single gal I would suggesting bringing your dog to "Yappy Hour" at the Liberty Hotel with one of my shirts and maybe a matching one of your own. It may be a bit uncouth but I'll bet you, and your dog, will be quite a hit.
Coming soon, Dingo's Dogsitting shirts emblazoned with "I Love Balls!"....Get em' while they're hot.
