RedEnvelope Bucket of Balls

Friends
We receive an inquiry from Ms. Sarah over at RedEnvelope 
asking if we would like something...
Of course we want something lady....BOL
and it arrived.....
well I'll be.....bubble wrap.
Chubby, its balls...tennis balls.
800 and 98 tennis balls.
The jokster said they wrote the wrong letters on our bucket.
"Good Dog"
We thought this bucket of balls by
Harry Barker gift line was a really cool idea.
It is even personalized.
That means they wrote Benny & Lily on our bucket.
They smell like HB tennis balls and taste like tennis balls..
Overall we decided the redenvelope has unique and very cool gifts since we could reuse our cool silver bucket for our toys or accessories.
Thank you Ms. Sarah
Snorts,
Benny & Lily

  4. Cute! Max would just look at me and laugh if I tried to throw a ball...then he'd watch me pick it up! ;)

  5. Even tough we don't fetch, we do love all kinds of balls. It is lots of fun to roll them under the chairs and sofa and make Mom bend down to get them. We can never figure out why she doesn't find it fun too.

    We would love to try to win them.

  6. They look really cool and we love the idea of the reusable bucket. We unfortunately don't play with tennis balls. Crazy ~ right?

  8. That's a pretty cute gift! You actually do NOT want real tennis balls. They are very abrasive and bad for a dog's teeth. They can actually wear off tooth enamel and do a lot of damage. You want to use something like AirDog balls that have been formulated to be kind to teeth. Sure, they don't last as long but at least the dog's teeth do!

  9. they don't bounce - how can you chase and play with a ball that doesn't bounce?

  10. That is a cool gift idea and we love the idea of the personalised bucket to re-use to keep toys in. Enjoy. Have a terrific Thursday.

  11. I like to chase balls, I don't necessarily care if they bounce cause my no-snout pug face can't catch a ball anyway. So sure! put us in the raffle if you have one
    hugs

    Bailey & Hazel too

  17. Monogrammed stickers is probably the way to go because we don't think the covers would last on the balls in our house....or the balls come to think of it...we have a Roxy remember.

    But getting a surprise is wonderful!
