Ruby (er, Tartok) Tuesday – Guard Dog

Tartok

With a guard dog like me on duty, these rope toys are totally safe.

You have any doubts about my awesome guard dog skills?

    Rope toy guarding is ALMOST as tough as guarding stuffies. Our Puff is the uber master expert at that…her record is guarding 11 toys at one time (and believe me we tested her)! She puts them all in a pile and lays on them like a brooding hen…you just don’t even want to TRY to grab one out from under her!

    I don’t doubt you for a second, Tartok!

    Guarding rope toys is such hard work. Even a top notch guard dog has to rest once in awhile!

    We can see by the wide open eyes and ears on “red alert” that you’re very aware of what’s happening around you. Good job, Tartok!
