| Gang Fight over Waggle Ball!!! I had gone on Amazon.com and ordered 3 balls....two were smaller, maybe a little smaller than a tennis ball....hard plastic....when you touch it or roll it around on the floor, all kinds of strange noises, beeps, yelps emit from the ball. I put it down with my 7 dogs....they went ballistic! Two were frightened, but the others went into hyper prey mode! Then there was my little Lexee.....she hovers over the ball and wont let anyone near it, like she is protecting it! Then a fight broke out and I ended up picking it up.....Lexee was not about to let anyone else attack that ball, and the others were not about to allow Lexee to determine the strange new creature's outcome! ......so a brawl ensued, resulting in the ball getting picked up! I bought another one that does not make any noises....it is a "weezel ball, with this furry weezel attached to the ball. You put a battery in it, turn it on, and the weezel "runs all over the room, pushing the ball"....they are having a wonderful time with this thing, no fights, but then one will snatch it up and run put it in a bed where it cant move....just twitches and tries to roll around.....OOOps! Ty is trying to breed it........ I havent tried it with the little puppies...they are down for their naps...when I get them back up, I will put it in with them and see how they react. |

| I showed Piper one of those balls and though intrigued, it was too big for her; I'm going to check into those smaller ones, thanks! I laughed out loud as I read about your little ones antics! |

| What if the weezel gets detatched? Can you tie it back on? I love the idea but worried Magnus would actually catch it and tear the weezel apart.... |

| THAT is exactly what I am watching very carefully....it is attached with a loop of plastic like what is on clothes price tags.....I do NOT like that and this particular toy will need to be watched carefully to keep a dog from chewing off the plastic "string" that is holding the weazel onto the ball.....you would have thought they could have devised something better than that! |

| I put the babies in their playpen and they played non stop with that noisy ball....for almost an hour fifteen minutes, they ran themselves ragged.....a real attention grabbing toy!! They adore these balls! I didnt put the weazle in with the puppies....too many dogs attacking the weazel at one time, I was afraid even with my eyes glued to the toy and pack, they would get that weazel off and swallow that plastic string thing.....I can not for the life of me think of the name of that plastic string thing! When is the last time you had a toy that absolutely captivated their attention and kept them actively playing for over an hour???!!!!! Anyway, they are all exhausted now, laying around the playpen....I am going to feed them their warm goats milk for bedtime and put them to bed! |

| I got a GoPro for my son for Christmas to try to film puppies for new parents.... Does anyone have a GoPro Hero...the basic one that cost $129.00....it has a digital memory chip (??) in it that you take out and put onto that slot on your computer, like I do for my digital camera....I guess you can then email the video to people???? |

| The puppies playing with the ball had to be some sight, lol, so young and inquisitive, must have been funny to watch them, also great exercise for the babies.
