Play Ball!

I'm so excited about the big Super Bowl pawty this weekend with Joe & Gus & Tanner & Teka! The very first year I lived on Jackman Avenue, the most super coolest football team in the whole world...my Pittsburgh Steelers...won the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, things didn't quite work out for us this year (but they're still super cool!) so we're just going to AZ to hang with our DWBs friends.

I don't really get into playing football much...tennis balls are more my thing. I prefer to chase them all around the yard, but it's been too rainy this week. I hate rain.


I can still have a good time in the house playing with the t-balls. I've learned to entertain myself pretty well.



And there is something special about these indoor tennis balls...they're MAGIC!

Turn your speakers up REALLY loud and I'll share with you my MAGIC tennis balls.




In case that video doesn't work...try this one.




Imagine that, Mr. Sherman...who could care less about tennis balls...is all of a sudden interested in the MAGIC tennis balls!


He must think they're made out of chicken backs.


Or he's trying to be like his BFF, Wally...who is WAY cooler because he can jump super high AND he plays with PINK tennis balls!


Never fear...I got it back. I played beautiful music for Mom all night!

(in case my video didn't work...the MAGIC tennis balls SQUEAK! Very Loud.)

Hi, Lola!
I can hear your ball squeak! Do you play with it in the middle of the night or your mom takes it away like my mom does with mine?
Kisses and hugs

Hi Lola,
Wahahah.. the MAGIC tennis ball can sure squeak LOUDLY! (Keep a close eye on it though cos I suspect it might disappear like magic overnight.. anyway if it disappears, I am sure the humans hid it!)

Where did you get those? Mom says she never seen them before!

Maya and Kena said...

Hi Lola!
We've only seen that magic tennis ball once with another doggie at the park, and boy, did Maya fall in love with it, she wouldn't give it back!! We agree, the squeak is music to our ears!!
Wags and licks,
Maya and Kena

Amber-Mae said...

Lola, You look like a little baby puppy in that squeaky tennis ball pic. You are a super duper cutey, and I love your big floppy lips. I think I need a squeaky tennis ball.

wally said...

Sherman may not be a tight end like me but that's just cuz he's practicing to be a big tuff running back like The Bus!

My sissy gets those squeaky balls and it drives my ma ape batty. Fortunately Ethel does not have a soft mouth and she manages to pop 'em within 5 minutes of getting them.

Lola,
We love squeaky tennis balls and we are so very jealous but we are glad you are enjoying yourself and having fun.
We just saw the set up Joe has for the Super Bowl party and it is unbelievably cool! Maybe the trip to Arizona will make up for the Steelers not playing this year.

Petra said...

Hey Lola, my little bark sounds just like your tennis ball squeak.

Isn't that sad?!

Lady Kaos said...

Tennis balls that squeak? That is the best, most wonderful toy ever. I played both videos at the same time. It was hilarious!

We were sleeping away in the family room when mom clicked the start button on your video, Lola! We couldn't get into the computer room fast enough to see what was going on!

Love ya lots,

Kathryn and Ari said...

Don't forget about puppy bowl: it's our favorite part of Sunday!

The Brat Pack said...

Dot-Spot went nuts when she heard your squeaky ball...I think she needs one too. Or maybe not, she's irritating enough as-is.

PS Is Penny gonna post more pics soon?

Kapp pack said...

And even worse than rain is freezing rain...that's what we're supposed to get tonight!

Kisses, Sky boy
(There's always next year!)

Stanley said...

Oh Lola Girl!

I LOVE your juicy pink jowls! I also LOVE your eyepatch and your tremendous squeaking powers! From another big fan of the magic tennis balls, it's great to see somedog like you making sweet music!

How can your mama stay behind the camera and not hug you TO DEATH everytime she sees your cute face?? Hmmm? Can you tell me?

Goober love & smooches (from me & my girl ~ she LOVES your face too),

Hiya Lola! No worries, both videos worked fine for us here in Scotland.

I bet your Mama just lurves it when you play with those squeaky tennis balls, it is such fun to give the hoooooomans plenty of musical accompaniements to their tv watching!

I am coming to the Super Bowl pawty as well, although I don't know anything much about the Super Bowl.

being Scottish........

But I am bringing a BOWL with me, just in case.

love and licks, you cutey pie!

Katherine and Pippa said...

I will play inside with you away from the rain Lola. I will let you have the magic tennis ball too. I only chase them round once or twice and then I get bored. Actually I might go find Penny for a snuggle and leave you to play with the tennis ball.

Princess Eva and Brice said...

That is a very cool t-ball, Lola! We need to get some of those. If it squeaks, we want it! When we dad played us those videos we went boonkers and we both ran and got squeaky toys! We also really like your new collar, Penny. Very fashionable! Have fun watching the Super Bowl with your humans. We'll be doing that, too, with some of dad's buddies. That means that there is sure to be food falling on the floor just for us!! Way Cool! Belly Rubs, Tasha & Eva.

Izzie said...

You're coming to Arizona???? Arizona??? Are you going to come to Tucson while you're here to visit ME??????? I can't go to Phoenix cuz I get carsick. But I'd WUV to see you!

Hammer said...

Hi Mates

Hope you have a pawsome time at your Super Bowl pawty on the weekend.
I liked your vids.
Love from Hammer

Princess Patches said...

We love your squeakie tennys! Mom needs to find us some! So far, we haven't been allowed to have tennis balls because we can make one bald in 2.3 seconds! We think we need to try the squeakie ones!

Poppy & Penny

Urban Smoothie Read said...

Lenny said...

Can't wait to see you all at the party! I'm sorry your Steelers are not playing. We like the Colts but I'm going to cheer for the Patriots, because I was born in New England.

Your friend, Lenny

Dexter said...

You really know how to go after a squeeky! I surprised it survived your assault.
I am getting cabin fever myself as we are getting snow, sleet, and rain.
Can't wait to get to AZ for super bowl.

The Daily Echo said...

I think we need some of them! Meeka thinks it's his job to personally de-squeak any toy that enters the house so he squeaks it till it dies.

Gus, Louie and Callie said...

Mom played your video and I just couldn't figure out what that noise was. I tried nudging her but that didn't work either.. Of course Louie is deaf and didn't hear anything. Poor little guy... But mom says he has never heard anything so he doesn't know any different..

Jake and Taryn said...

What an adorable video!! We have the "magic" tennis balls at our house too! Both of our dogs came running in to where our computer is wondering where the tennis ball was at!! :)

chummy's mum said...

That's one fancy ball! I think our pack would go crazy for those! They do like those special pink ones like Wally plays with :)

Bella the Boxer said...

Lola, I used to have a MAGIC tennis ball that squeaked, but mean Mom took it away because I would chase it under the furniture and scratch to get it. Now I can only play ball outside but, like you, I hate the rain! Don't forget to send me your snail mail so I can send you a Valentine.

JAZZ AND DIXIE said...

Hi Lola
When Dixie heard your tennis ball squeak she jumped right on the keyboard!! She did that side to side thing with her head and mum thought she looked adorable!
We both love sqeaky things and I usually try to chew that sqeaky thing out of whatever it is in.

Sherm--

I usually don't mind puppies. My favorite one was Panda, the Rottie mix. He had a little white on him so it was like someone put you and me together in a puppy! Awesome!

wally

ps. I checked out the bully stick site you recommended to Peanut. Whoa!
