[QUOTE="donna723, post: 204584, member: 1883"] My youngest Boston, Katy, can throw a ball or a toy ... to HERSELF! Somewhere I've got a picture of her doing it - I'll have to look for it. If I get tired to throwing the ball for her to chase, she just takes matters into her own hands ... ummm, paws! She finds a corner, sometimes the corner of the dining room or sometimes the corner where the bookcase meets the wall. Or sometimes she does it on the sofa where the back of it meets the arm. She wedges the ball into the corner and then shoves her smooshy little black nose under it ... she inches it up ever so slowly, bracing it against the corner, until she gets it about a foot off the floor. Then with one big mighty upward thrust of her head she launches it up in the air hard enough to hit the ceiling and bounce off .. then she chases it down and starts all over again. She's very good at amusing herself. Her 'sister', Ragan, has managed to accidentally stand on her head in the recliner maybe a half-dozen times. Unfortunately, I never had the camera nearby when she did it. She has skin allergies and she was trying to scratch her own back. She'd get in the recliner and wedge her head into the seat of it with her front paws on either side of her head. Then she'd press her back into the back of the chair and give these little jumps with her back legs, which is hard to picture but it rubbed her itchy back against the back of the chair. She'd be over there just hopping like crazy and a few times she'd push too hard with her legs, her little butt went straight up in the air (the chair leaned back a little and was supporting her weight) and she was standing on her head! Her eyes were huge but she wasn't scared. I think it amazed her to see how different the living room looked upside down! [/QUOTE]
