Dogs and sticks!

For some reason dogs are addicted to sticks and the game of "Fetch"

My friend @johannpiber has two little cats that give them much laughter while watching animals on TV and we have a cheeky little Chihuahua that also has some weird habits.
Pets can really provide relief from the stresses of life.
Let's have a look at dogs playing the fetch game.

Anxiously the dog watches his owner collecting a stick and he knows what's coming.

Bang! Here he took a dive to fetch the stick.

The stick landed at the other side of the river.

Oh yes, he got the stick and turned to swim back.

We were told that he is a breed between a pitbull and a sheepdog.

Now here we have a real sheepdog and as he got to the stick, he laid down, as if to say "gotcha".

Then it was time for him to run back to his owner.

Boundless energy this fella had and he was delighted with the simple stick.

So what is the lesson here for us as as the enlightened species on earth?
Simple things can create much joy.
When I was a kid we created our own toys, wire cars, paper kites, sling shots, go-karts and many other toys. Money for toys was never available and yet we had a very rich childhood resulting from our creative abilities.
Those very creative experiences led to many successes in our future lives.
Just saying!

And that's All Friends!
