ness Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Hahah what took Lex so long to get one out Ptolomy, Kenz and that box would have lasted less than 5 seconds . I had a chuckle at the fact that Blue was never suppose to be a popular colour with your kids and yet the first ball that was got out was a blue one :rolleyes: . Thanks for organising this .

I hope your kids enjoy them and I would love to see photos when they arrive Thanks everybody OMG the look on their faces!! PMSL ;) sas said: Dante heard that and got very excited! Ditto...

jm266 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I also had an audience trying to check out the laptop when the squeaking started, looking forward to when they arrive. Video is excellent. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubyStar Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 OMG that is hilarious Can't believe it took Lexi so long to get one out! I had the sound as low as I could get it but the girls still jumped up from their slumber when they heard the first squeak go off Thanks again for organising this! Woohoo!

OSoSwift Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I am thinking that the Whippets will LOVE their I-squeak balls. How excited where the Whippets when the squeaking started - VERY EXCITED!!!!!! Can't wait till we get them home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Watched the vid at school with no sound. Can't wait to watch at home with the sound on - and see what the dogs think. Hmmmmmm - now ... what's the collective noun for Tollers in the presence of a box of i-squeaks. I know -...... ....... a tsunami of Toller tails ...... And thanks again Ptolomy - apart from actually getting the i-squeaks - we've had lots of fun already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pie Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 You've created a monster Ptolomy, last night I let my two play with their small ones (of course Trixie only wants the one Kyzer has at the time) and they had a great old time , then I put them both outside to toilet and forcefully removed and hid the isqueaks on the top of a cupboard in the bedroom, all was good, it was 11pm so they were tired and went to sleep, but this morning I was awoken by Kyzer barking and crying and trying to jump up to the top of the cupboard to get his isqueak. Oh nooooo, I'll have to hide them in the freezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RallyValley Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yes Toby went out to the car this morning and was staring at it and I was all like awww he wants to trial again. Then when i opened the car to unpack from last night he jumps in and tries to grab all 3 isqueaks at once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't know why they are so popular, compared to other balls and squeakies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirawee Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Thank you for my i-squeaks Ptolomy :D My guys didn't get a chance to play with them by the time I got home last night but hopefully they will love them too I look forward to seeing the video when I get home too Is it strange that I love the smell of them?

Ptolomy Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Somebody PM'd me and asked how can they use an i-squeak in training with thei 5 months old puppy. Thought that it might be worthwhile posting the question here and have others explain how they use their i-squeaks/toys...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huski Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) I haven't used an isqueak before, but because Micha is very prey driven but reluctant to tug and he goes nuts for anything squeaky so I often use them in training. So I use squeaky toys as a reward just as you would use food or a tug, by bouncing it and letting him catch it or throwing it and letting him chase it (I know it's naughty but he won't ever be a competition dog so it's ok ). I am happy to do a video of him 'working' for his isqueak when they get here Edited March 18, 2010 by huski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My lab also loves squeak toys but he loves food just as much and when we get to an area with lots of dogs he tends to ignore toys, I would rather use a toy than food as a reward though.
