More Ball Control 

Today it was even hotter than yesterday! Chuck came home on his motorcycle, put it into that nasty, smelly garage, and went into the pool.

I thought he might want to play with the ball again so I dropped it into the water. You wouldn't believe how I had to bark to get him to fetch it! I took it to the patio for Jo Ann to fetch, and I had to bark at her too.

When they were both out of the water it was my turn to fetch. Great fun, but tiring.

Ball Control 

When I control the ball I control everyone.

This evening it was hot and I wanted to play ball. Chuck threw it for me a few times and then dropped it into the pool. I put my front feet in and got the ball back.

He threw the ball for me a few more times and then threw it way out into the pool. No fair! I barked and ran around the pool, and finally Jo Ann made him use the leaf skimmer to move the ball to the edge where I could reach it.

I ran around the pool with the ball. They can't catch me when I do that! Then I dropped the ball and kicked it into the pool. They didn't fetch it until I barked at them. Silly people!

Later I thought it was time for a quiet swim. I dropped the ball into the pool, then swam to get it. It was relaxing to push the ball around the pool with my nose.

They went inside and left me in the pool. I asked nicely to come in too, and they rubbed me with a towel! That's best of all.
