this is just so funny. I'm going to have to get a balloon just to see if Roxie bothers with it. My sister used to have a dog that would grab hold of the string of the balloon and trying to chase it. The balloon would just keep floating and he never could get it. He'd go round in circles backwards for a pretty long time and you finally just had to make him stop by taking the balloon and putting it up. Once in awhile he'd manage to pop one but mostly just trying to catch it!
