oh and did i mention we play this in the house,lol

LOL, that sounds EXACTLY like Maddie!!! We play in the house during the evening/night. Sometimes she drives me nuts with that ball!

When it gets to be too much we have to take it and hide it from her. But then I always feel so bad because it is the joy of her life. How can I deny her it when it is so simple and it makes her so happy?

I have a Border Collie that is obsessed with playing ball also. Especially if I have company!!!! After awhile, I have to put the ball away and she gets better. She even throws it in the pool, watches it float around, then jumps in and retrieves it. Try taking the ball away and give him/her a bully stick or something like that.
