Monday Mischief: The Ball Is Always Greener...

Rita's not all that big on playing ball. But of course she wants the ball if it's in someone else's yard. 
Rita spies a lovely big, green ball in a neighbor's yard

She wants it!
 
Mean Momma wouldn't steal the ball for her. Guess I'll have to buy her a ball like that now!

 And Don't Forget...

    Other dogs always have better food and toys. Mr. N will eat vegetables if other dogs are eating them but he won't at home.

    But, if you get her a ball she won't play with it. She wants THAT ball.

    Dear Jackie's Neighbors with the Ball,
    I would've taken your ball and given it to Rita. Just because... I mean, look at Rita's face... how could I not? But I know Jackie's too nice and honest to do that. Be glad she's your neighbor and I'm not. ;)

    I'm sure Roxy is right. ;) My dogs love soccer balls! But Rita, I hear it's football season. Tell mama you need a football.

    If you buy Rita a similar ball, we hope you'll post her reaction so we can find out if it was the fact that it was just out of reach that made it so appealing. :-)

    Generally speaking, I'm not big on playing ball, either...unless I get a treat. :)

    Thanks for the heads up about the giveaway. :-)

    Haha - That's funny, I pretty much do the same thing too, unclaimed balls are way more interesting than the ones you're allowed! :)

    Have fun

    Your pal Snoopy :)

    Dogs can't help it...It's hardwired in...the other guy's (bone, ball, toy, treat) is ALWAYS better :)

    Dogs always seem to want what they can't have. Beamer's like that too :)
