The doodles got a new toy

lmtoth2 · 01-25-2009, 08:23 PM

We were at Petsmart today for Dexter's class and my husband couldn't resist. I was cracking up at Kirby so I took a video for you. Sorry about the shadows - this was taken around 3 pm when the sun is lower.

Kirby loved it!!

Dexter was NOT a fan...hehe...we turned it off and let him go to it on his terms and he seems to like it more now.

How cute, I wonder if Miss Priss would like one of those

Calimom · 01-25-2009, 09:10 PM

What a fun toy! It's interesting how they reacted differently. I wonder how Cali would react. How long do the batteries last?

I loved Dexter barking at it! At my house, I think Daisy would be like Kirby, all attack, and Dexter would back off and bark. I think our namesake boys are cut from the same cloth!

Oh, my gosh! That is funny! Have they killed it yet?
I'd love to get something like that for my dogs...but I am so afraid that it would be shredded in 15 minutes! Is it pretty sturdy?
My dogs have been barking at Dexter... LOL

The old Bumble ball!! Great videos! My old Cocker used to go ballistic over that toy! I'd have to put it away in a locked cabinet. I was afraid he'd have a heart attack. I'd love to get one again, but I'm afraid it would cause WWIII here!

I've got to get one of those for Tyke! She would LOVE it!

Those videos are so cute - the look on Dexter's face is just PRICELESS!!!

Hagrid would go bananas for that toy! And I think Gab would like it too

. I'll have to see if I can find a "bumble ball" here

. Haggins was really excited when he heard Dex barking.. looking all around wondering where the other doodle was and could he play with it

hehe...so this appears to be a great toy! Kirby is the one who would destroy it. However as you can see in the video, when he manages to get a hold of it and lays down with it, he'll put it down to try to chew it and of course as soon as he puts it down it starts moving...hehe

One of the other videos I took had him jumping around at it trying to play with it. I lost my will to upload videos after 2 though. We will keep it in the closet and just bring it out when we can supervise. Dex will never get a chance with it except when Kirby is outside (Kirby doesn't share well) so we'll see if he warms up to it

Such a cool toy...I love that it wombles off as soon as they settle down to chew it

Is "bumble' it's proper name? I'm going to google to see if it's available over here

You can get them on amazon for a few bucks cheaper....

lmtoth2 · 01-26-2009, 08:05 PM

man that got horrible reviews...haha. It's lasted fine so far. Dexter still doesn't seem to like it but Kirby is fascinated with it. We also turn it on for just a few minutes at a time - no clue how long it will last

blueteal · 01-26-2009, 08:56 PM

Teehee
We had one for Denver it took him minutes to destroy it.............
