| Ah the ball! Our little one was also obsessed with it. We got to the point where we'd only bring it out when it was time to play. If we left it out she would keep putting it on our feet or in our shoes until we'd give in and play! |

| I have a little one who is ball obsessed, too. Katie will only play with very tiny balls. It's what her breeder used and who created the obsession with Katie. I have probably at least thirty balls out for Katie, which helped to desensitize her to them. Before that she would chew them if she found them, but she no longer does it anymore except for one ball that must be irresistible to her. I now use balls that are a little smaller, but here is a photo of my little girl and her ball.

| Katie has an I fetch ball launcher, but she won't use it because the balls are bigger than she's used to. It will launch smaller balls, but hers are too heavy, so they don't go far. Now that I have more time, I'm going to work with her to see if she will accept the different ball. It was a gift from someone very dear, so its special to us, and it also is great. Katie has a newer game where she bounces a ball in places such as a radiator, and then she has to use her paws to ricochet it to retrieve it. Of course, it gets stuck often, and relies on me to get the ball. It takes lots of bending on my knees and is also not so great for my back, but Katie loves it, so we do this every night. iFetch Interactive Ball Launcher Dog Toy - BedBathandBeyond.com There is also another Ifetch, but it just rolls the ball out. https://keepdoggiesafe.com/products/...HUBIg#tabify-1
