Oscar knows the word “play” so when I say “want to go play?”, he gets so excited. He loves chasing the frisbee but isn’t so excited about bringing it back to me. I had been giving him little mini milk bones when he brings it back to me but I’ve started giving him little squares of freeze dried carrots. He’s just as excited to get those. I’ll usually take 10 or so out in my pocket. By the time he’s fetched the frisbee 8 or 9 times, he’s getting tired and, even with a treat, I have to coax him into returning the frisbee to me.
He was waiting for his treat! He is so fun to play with. Now that I’ve learned that when he’s being wild and crazy in the house, we can go out and play til he’s tired . . that’s made my life a lot easier!

This is a great photo of Oscar! I used to throw the ball for my Roxie (15 lb daschund) – it was her favorite thing! Brings back great memories.
