New ball

We had a small drama the other day, a big dog (who we won't name and shame!) stole Merlins football and burst it. We were at the dog beach so I suppose these things can and do happen but Merlin was not impressed and dragged the remains back up the beach towards the car!
Well we couldn't look at his sad puppy dog eyes any longer so we purchased a new one for him today, he is so happy so I decided he would be the subject of todays blip.
It's just started raining and he has rescued the ball from the garden and put it by the back door ready for play in the morning, this ball is obviously so much better than the last one!
