Eko is always on the lookout for dogs at the park, but he especially loves playing with puppies
This cute pup was visiting the park for the first time. She happily gnawed on her ball, oblivious to Eko
The sound of my shutter caught her interest
And while this cutie was giving me kisses, what do you think happened?
I’ll give you one guess…
The pup turned back around and discovered she misplaced her ball. “It was right here!” her perplexed face said. That’s when Eko ran up to her, the ball in his mouth and grinned.
Then took off with the pup in hot pursuit
Eko bounded up and down the park with his new friend right on his heels
The puppy was game, but there was no way she was ever going to get the ball back on her own
Eko doesn’t care about toys, he lives for the chase, so I made him hand over the bait. I returned the ball to the puppy, who happily trotted right back over to Eko. Stealing a ball from a friend to start a chase is one of the oldest tricks in the book and it was fun to see a puppy learn the rules of the game right in front of me.
And the next time Eko tried to pull that old trick?
The pup was ready! She grabbed the ball and dashed off with Eko right behind her
There are some lessons and tricks we can’t teach our pets. They are lessons best learned through experience, with a little help from an old dog!
Eko is such a sweet and friendly dog. No wonder he has so many friends around when you all go on outings. Hugs and nose kisses
Eko is super clever, what a smart idea! I bet the puppy had a wonderful day too and I bet she learnt the trick and will try it later with another doggy :o)
beautiful dag!
What a fun story…….Eko played nice with the pup and vice versa – that’s always a joy to behold…..Eko was a little gentleman and made a friend – clever boy!

Sisfur Nalle loves to tire out the puppies at the doggy parks! Wooooowoooooo!
Very true. Mom is really enjoying watching us teach Bailie all about things in dog life. Stealing a ball to get a game of chase going is one of our favorite things to do too. We have no interest in playing ball, just chase.
I just love that 🙂
I love this story! What a fun time! 😀
Loved reading this post and how much fun the two pups had together!! Enjoy the day as we all should do!
Chase is a fun game and efurrything tastes or is better if it belongs to somefurry else! ^_^
