That was my thought, JJ.  
In fact, when it came to it the ball always won if it was thrown, but she could always be persuaded with a stick to drop the ball so it could be thrown.

Low cunning is the name of the game.

Do the sticks have to be Brought Home? Some dogs are most insistent on the point.

Oh, I made a terrible mistake once while out walking brother-in-law’s border collie (half border collie, really). He had made a very careful selection from various found tennis balls and carried it for a while then dropped it. I didn’t realize my job was to carry it home. He made that quite clear when we got there.

She certainly is! I expect our Chatelaine to be looking chust so when she files her report. Furfles for That Hound - Carinthia may balk at this kind of affectionate display, however.

Lunch was Good - DS kindly accepted the enormous exploded Yorkshire Pud from my plate. We handed over Birthday offerings, so that he might open them on The Day, as we’ll not see him until two days later, for Afternoon Tea. (I need to be able to cope with my walking machine, to w#rk off some of the calories involved in celebrating all of these birthdays, but my left (rear) beely knee izz not being kind).

Isn’t it just, Gus.  
I have a Dyson dryer thingy which may be a bit too powerful for the belly legs.  
ETA - I’ll let the typo stand, azz that’s pretty much what I am. A belly on legs.  
Pfft,

Because, after centuries of evolution, there exists a class of drinker whose sole communication is the word “Guinness”, and they want to capture that market?
