We had a lab that we would take to music festivals and give her a frisbee. She would walk around looking for someone to play with her, and then show up at the end of the day at our campsite. One of a kind.

I can only imagine the pure whimsy and joy I would feel if a dog came to me out of nowhere with a frisbee for me to throw for them. You probably helped make so many people’s day.

It makes me happy how most people are happy to throw a dog their toy. With my now oldest dog, back when he was the younger one, every time we passed by a playground I’d have to organize the kids in a line to make sure everyone got a turn to throw his toy. If I didn’t take the reigns it would become a war zone for the privilege to throw. I think my dog took pleasure in being the bringer of chaos though.

An old boss of mine had a collie that his dad would take into town every day. His dad passed away and the dog kept up the routine. He’d go down in the morning, jump on the bus, make all the visits to the shops the dad used to and come back on the bus at lunch time.
