she is older and overweight (pooch) and lives in an apt. She is a service dog for the sisters.
So I hope the caretaker sister will try to take this sweet dog for some fun. Thanks for this post.

With each of her first two Jolly Balls Shadow chewed the handles in two then carried them around in her mouth by one of the ends until we replaced them. Her favorite game is for us to pick up the ball and throw it so she can chase it; but most of the time she won't let go of it and teases to get it away from her. Thank You for your comment, Allan
