On Monday, Stefan got his motorcycle license so he can commute to work by bike. Fun times indeed. While we were waiting to go pick up his new motorcycle, we decided to run by the pet store since I needed to go by there anyway. Stefan was hoping to find some sort of motorcycle-related toy for Ayla (this was before she killed Buddy of course) but the only thing they had was something similar to a tractor wheel which just didn’t cut it.
Instead we found a KONG ball (they’ve just started carrying a lot more KONG products at Fressnapf) and I had to get Ayla one. She generally enjoys chasing balls and in the courtyard it’s great because they roll back to you due to its gentle slope when she gets tired or bored. This ball is really fun, though, because it bounces really well and in a crazy fashion like the crazy rubber balls I used to get as a kid from vending machines. I’m actually a bit afraid I might bounce it too hard one day and it will end up on the roof or going over our fence or who knows where…and it’s rather solid so I could actually break something with it.
Ayla goes crazy trying to chase this thing down because it just doesn’t want to stay in her mouth! And the slightest touch will send it bouncing away which is just great fun. They have another similar one which has little knob-type things all over it and it is supposed to bounce really wildly…I’m hoping they start carrying that in the store soon too…and Ayla’s chances of destroying this thing are not very high. So far she hasn’t made any dents in any of her KONG toys! 🙂
Hi Ayla,
I like to tear my stuffies apart too! I’ve got a whole toybox full of broken stuffed animals. Mom only throws them away when we can’t recognize the type of animal anymore (hee hee!)

Hey T-man!
My mom used to sew mine back together and then after I’d destroyed them 2 or 3 more times she would trash them. But apparently she was just a bit fed up with that approach when I killed Buddy and she just sent him directly to the trash. What’s a Newf to do?
Newfie kisses!
Ayla
I think I can’t play with you as I am really scared of how you play with your toys and you might think I am a toy!
But I just wanted to tell you that BIG or small, we enjoy our KONG toys too. Ours is really really small but we put peanut butter in it for FUN!
You look like a gentle GIANT. You are gorgeous!

Hi ChaChi Lu & family!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. You are just too cute! My humans have run into some super adorable Chihuahua’s lately and have thought about getting me one…but I freak out the cats already so I would probably scare a Chihuahua too…and the cats would hate the humans even more for bringing home a cat-sized dog! 🙂
I LOVE peanut butter – anywhere and everywhere! My mom makes me frozen yogurt with peanut butter mixed in and sprinkled with doggie chocolate chips. It’s the BEST! Maybe I can get her to fill that in a KONG sometime… YUM!
Newfie kisses!
Ayla
