LMAO! Yes! I'm not sure if it's a good or a bad, but it's a Cuz toy! They have four: two pink, one green, and one orange. The two pinks are lost at the moment (probably under the bed), and so the green and the orange are usually plugged into each retriever's mouth! They wrestle over them and are generally obsessed. I think the noise attracts them initially, though they usually knock out the squeakers pretty quickly. (Though Big Orange kept its squeaker for a long time and was blissfully stolen by the neighbor's dog for some months before reappearing in our yard, squeaker still intact. Unfortunately.) Many a Saturday morning, I have awakened to the squeak of a "Big"; the Goldens recognize their worth as alarm clocks. And all they have to hear is that squeaker rattling inside the ball, and they come running. They also managed to find them under three feet of snow. (Not that Bobby and I left them out intentionally, knowing a blizzard was on the way or anything ... ;)

The Goldens want to know, "But will you let us chase the chickens??" The chickens are the Goldens like those cool gloves were to Coraline--desired but forbidden! ;)

That's hilarious! Mr. Feet no longer squeaks, thank goodness. Especially since it was the evil Mr. Feet, and made that awful demon grunt-squeak. The squeaker is not even left to rattle around inside, but mention "Mr. Feet" and the chaos will begin as Louis scrambles to find it. We just have one, but it has never been lost. Although Louis did try to lose it forever by dropping it out the car window one day...Luckily, we were in the garage!

Actually, Louis is currently outside in the 100+ weather with his Mr. Feet, alternatively rolling it into the pool for amusement and barking or howling for someone to come throw it for him.

Goldens, of course I will let you chase chickens! You can ask Louis though, the chickens are loud freaks of nature that aren't as fun as they look!
