Friday Fun - The Indestructible Dog Toy

WHAT??? There really is a INDESTRUCTIBLE dog toy???
Yep, and that's what this post is all about :)
Most of you know, that I'm a very STRONG chewer - if you didn't, well... now you know.
I do have many dog bones, stuffies, and some other cool toys - but my raiser hasn't had any luck finding a fun "play toy" that really is INDESTRUCTIBLE... fur me :)
I told her there is no such thing, us dogs can tear up ANYTHING we want... But she decided to prove me wrong.
My raiser's brother does "welding" - and while at class, he decided to weld a small cube WITH water inside. This "water cube" was total fun balls to play with, and my raiser soon found out that it IS indestructible.
Well, my raiser's brother decided to make me another play cube... and add some steel balls inside (also leaving a couple little holes... so the noise can be heard, very well!).
Introducing, the INDESTRUCTIBLE DOG TOY...
Picture of a steel cube, about the size of a regular dog ball - it has small holes on each side and there are 6 steel balls inside
Enjoy the movie (and picture) below, of me playing with the cube.
Furry Friday kisses!

P.S. Please not that I'm not allowed to play with this toy all the time (but when I do, it's only with human supervision) - and my raiser doesn't let me sit down and "chew" on the cube (wouldn't be good on my teeth)... all I do is "push" it around, so it will make noise :)

Friday is for Fun

That's right, I had FUN today!
This morning my Raiser and I went to the running trail and jogged 3 miles... those were the BEST 3 miles I ever ran! Of course, I don't run much.
That was my LAST time on the trail, and most likely the last time I'll run 3 miles with my Raiser :(
On the plus side - she got PICTURES! A picture may be worth a thousand words - but my Raiser likes them for memory, I'm happy to know that my Raiser will have many memories of me, even though I'm gone.
We also went into town to run some errands, and my Raiser got many more pictures of me. Most of those pictures will be saved for later blog posts while I'm at "college", as my Raiser just heard it might be a 3 month wait before she gets another puppy and she wants to do some posts while I'm gone.
I hope all you guys had a FUN FRIDAY!
Please enjoy the pictures below of my run!
