Until about two weeks ago, Berkeley and McDuff co-existed; neither one of them were interested in the other. About two weeks ago Berkeley started noticing McDuff and watching his every move. He would smile as soon as he saw his puppy pal and give a little giggle. McDuff has notice how much more mobile the little guy has gotten, and apparently thinks that now he is good play partner.
When McDuff wants to play he will bring us his squirrel or fox and lay it at our feet and look at us, wanting us to throw the animal so he can chase it, bring it back, and start all over again. Last week McDuff started bringing his toy and laying it in front of Berkeley, then he would just look at him. Poor Duff doesn't understand that Berkeley is not quite at a stage in life where he can throw objects short distances.
Tonight, McDuff placed his fox ever so cleverly right in front of Berkeley. Berke is at that stage where he grasps anything in sight and holds on for dear life. So, Berke grabs on to the fox. Duff could not have been more pleased, because now he can play his 2nd favorite game, tug of war. These two started playing together! It was the cutest thing and they both loved it!
Granted the fox is disgusting and I don't really want Berke playing with it; I have been waiting for these two to bond for 6 months I couldn't stop their fun.

Here they both are with their death grips. Eventually McDuff won; Berkeley was a good sport about losing, he just went on to the next toy.

That is so funny. I love your BOYS! Makes me laugh. Miss your face!
I think the two of them are going to be best of buddies this is only the first of many, tug of wars. Love Mom.
cute cute. Glad that they are bonding! McDuff really is such a good dog--I love that he has someone else to play tug of war with now.
