Sepia Saturday - Reach...

Poor Ethel just couldn't get to the tantalising toy behind the gate. There was no room for her muzzle to slide in, so she had to resort to reaching out with her paws, AND attempting to stuff her face into the bars - all at the same time! She wouldn't give up whatsoever, and ended up sitting back and resorting to moaning at me. I knew she was capable, and she proved me correct in the end! What a clever and determined young canine!

No giving up!

She proceeded to run around the garden, shredding the soft material all over the ground, diving on Earl and asking him to tug. And, of course, he woofed the OK! Then, the pair tugged and tugged hard, until it burst open at the seams - innards everywhere. Oh well - time for me to clean up! One toy well-earned, well-loved and well played with, indeed.

Does your dog ever reach with their paws?
