a smaller Safe Stix

Penny enjoyed fetching her Safe Stix at Warringal Park yesterday, but she no longer has it.

Today I took a friend's dog for a walk - a beautiful long-haired German shepherd - and she loved the Safe Stix so much that I let her have it.

When I went back to the shop - Murphy Brothers in Hawthorn (in Melbourne) - I bought the small Safe Stix for Penny, because she loved the medium-sized one so much that she carried it everywhere in the park yesterday, and I think it'll be easier for her to carry the small one.

Here's hoping she likes the little one just as much.

our new Safe Stix

At last the Safe Stix is available here! After I received an email newsletter from our favorite shop, Murphys in Hawthorn, saying they'd imported it, I called over there to get one.

I was excited, but Penny wasn't. She was more interested in the view of our rainy street.

Until we played tug with it,

 


and Penny gave it a good shaking.

 

 Now I've put it away, having piqued her interest. Next time we go out we'll try it as a throwing toy (though we have to be super careful with that, seeing she's had her cruciate repaired); and, best of all, as a floating toy.
