JUST CURIOUS ..what is the LIFE span of a JOLLLY BALL??? hahaha

Bella has the same original tennis balls IF I had not thrown them out to be slobbered apon to much..but when It comes to the jolly ball ..she turns into this mad bully woman..lol.
she totally loves them but wander how they really stand up??
I can see with the heavy playing with it 3 times a day..everyday outside..they are starting to show wear and tear..and only a half a year with the jolly ball..

just curious as to the life span..lol

I am thinking of getting a couple more of them to add to the outside. I perfer to not let in the house..since they are so large and she just goes nuts over them..
fun in the snow and sunshine is one thing..but a destroyed house is another...lol

the teaser is in good shape here..

Dupree likes it somewhat, but got mad that he cant destroy it!
Pat,what day is your son coming home?I bet your getting excited!!

much bully love~Christine, Dupree, Marley and Savannah

LOL..that made me laugh ..maybe me too. if this keeps UP..

I have 2 teasers, 2 different jolly balls out there right now
but the one with the handle is seeing all the wear and tear..
think I will get another one and store it away..
Bella has another one in her bully box when my son gets home finally..
but another one can not hurt to have around..

yea different here too with the bullies..

Gus got the handle figured out and he is gentle with the ball and just rolls it and carries it..but Bella is such a wild child with this ball..she has not even touched the handle..and that is a good thing but can see her teeth marks on the ball itself..all over..

well, it depends which bully you ask...

Marley has done well with it,playing, using the handles...UNTIL Dupree got a hold of it for like 5 minutes, handle is about gone:*( He is my chewer..

Bella is chewing on the edges of the teaser too..

but looks like it will hold up better here then the actual jolly ball

Yes but he still manages to do some damage to them

is he better with the teaser ball???

I have 2 of them out there too to play with
Bella is ONLY Starting to want to chew this ball
the teaser too..
she used to just roll it but NOT anymore..lol
she loves it

15 minutes for the handle and another 15 for total destruction

Tennis balls 5 minutes or less and basketballs maybe 20 minutes...I've got a chewer. Thank goodness for Teaser Balls!

Bella will NOT sure the handle..that is the ODD part..

she is diving straight into the ball..
first of all she just rolled it but with the winter and the cold temps..she can bend it enough to carry it...and I can see where this is heading..lol she loves it..totally
would be a shame..if there was no jolly balls for her..
might get another one and just put it away somewhere..to be sure..I will always have one

I have 4 of them out there right now
the teaser fills with snow so they are not very good in the winter
the rope one is neat..but then again..they ONLY want the ball.forget the rope..lol
the other one is a huge red ball..a favourite here..and it is taking some rough chews..

depends on the chewer

usually its the handle they chew off, but the ball itself is still pretty much intact, Rocky destroys his qickly, I cut oof the handle or whats left of it, and he goes right on with the ball.

I am a bit worried to be honest...

thanks for your concern.
I thought I would have heard from him by now
but nothing
my guess is that he has the cell phone on..
home only so he is not paying roaming fees
and is in the US somewhere..stuck with the snowstorms here
and not coming back quite yet..
that is my guess anyhow..

geesh that's kind of worrisome!

I hope you get a phone call soon!

when she first came home
Photobucket

HE MISSES Bella something terrible..he always says that ..all th

he is home for 3 months when he comes home this time..or so..so Bella will get big time spoiled..
he truly loves his dog.
this time was a long time out on the ships for all of US..
hope he is home soon..
at least call..would be nice..

Pat...

Well, I hope it is in 2 weeks so your wait won't be so long!
I bet he will be so happy to be home and see Bella:)

I am excited..STILL Heard NOTHING from HIM...

the last I heard from him was a bit after Christmas..
HE always calls on New Years Day on the cell phone
but did not his year..
I am guessing that he is really stuck out there somewhere in the water..
with no service
we are really getting dumped on here with the snow..and if that is case they would just pull off and park for a couple of days..

so just waiting
yea excited
tree and decorations are still up..
will likely not be here for a bit yet..
guessing another 2 weeks or so
thanks for asking..
