Spike was disappointed when we went out two days ago and his favorite toy was destroyed.  He wouldn't even try to pick it up.  But at least I got him interested in the rope.  We attempted to play with the tennis ball but after I threw it he would go after it, smell it, and look at me like ~~ "where is my toy mom".   In June I will be delivering him to his new owner in Oklahoma along with Stitch.  Sonny is going to have a great time training those two.
