Canine stand-off

This is a scene that replays often in my house. At least daily.

Young dog, Daisy Duke, loves to play ball ALL DAY LONG. Old dog, BoBermory, gets fed up with her high energy shenanigans. So he steals her ball and lies on it. (It's under his chin)

She is never brave enough to take it back by force. So she waits him out. Eventually he needs to get up, get more comfortable, get a drink, go for a pee. Then the red one will strike!!
