    Human body - My 2 goldens go absolutely nuts for tennis balls. It's literally an addiction. Who else's golden?

    Font - smith_716 14 days ago Aurora (Rory) Goldens are born to retrieve and what's the easiest thing to retrieve? BALLIE! They're the perfect size, shape, they have an interesting smell and texture and give just a little bit when they do the random super hard molar bite down. AND SOMETIMES YOU CAN JUST FIND THEM ANYWHERE!! Really, though, that goldie is impressive with all the ballies in their mouth. Mine were never that interested in ballies.

    Font - chriswaco 14 days ago I remember people telling me that dogs don't have good memories. Then I remember my golden searching for a long-gone tennis ball we had left in a particular place at a park a year earlier. Tennis balls are like catnip for goldens.

    Font - fool_scold 14 days ago Our golden is obsessed. We stopped letting him have actual tennis balls, though... he chews the felt off and eats it, which is no-bueno. Now he gets orange 'Chuck-It" brand balls that are very solid, and he can't chew them up. He falls asleep with the ball in his mouth sometimes. I took him on a two mile walk once, and he carried one in his mouth the entire time.

    Font - that-bro-dad. 14 days ago Yep. We have taught ours that "tennis balls are outside toys" and he knows what that means. If he wants to hold onto his tennis balls (he also likes to carry more than one), then he can stay outside as long as he wants. If he wants to come in, he has to drop them. Sometimes we have a dog sitter and when they send pictures, I see Gus inside with a tennis ball and I know he tricked them. He knows better. Haha. He has recently learned that dryer balls are perfectly
