Photo Caption Contest: Eye on the Ball
Does this photo just say “dog” or what? The subject here is a cute little terrier mix named Chloe who I photographed a few weeks ago (you can see more of her shots here) . Let’s just say the terrier part of her became extremely dominant whenever a ball appeared.
So, have at it, Dogsters. Post your suggestions for a Chloe quote by commenting below and I’ll announce the winner of the 50-Zealie prize next Monday, May 18th.







Come to me, come to me, come on, just roll to me.

Goody, goody my ball, play ball with me.
I WILL get you my PRETTY!
Look me in the eyes!! Come to me!!!
“That Telepathy handbook said that if you concentrate really hard while staring at the object, it will come to you. Okay ball, come to me”
“Yes,… the jet eye strength flows from the force within.”
” I think I can, I think I can”!!
“did they tell you to stay too?”
Do I have the balls to fetch this one???
Mama said there be days like this.
It isn’t easy being green….or retrieving it for that matter!
This game of tennis just blows….
You will go in my mouth…….
You will go in my mouth…….
Never stand between a dog and his tennis ball…
A dog’s prayer would be answered if tennis balls would rain from the sky…
Count to ten, Count to ten then grab the ball! You can do it just Count to ten.
Bally Bally Bo Bally Oh Bally!
Good one, Ace! Thirty Love, a busted racket, and delay of game….
“Please can you throw the ball just one more time”
Hey there beautiful, where have you been all my life?
PLEASEEEEE DOG GOD LET THERE BE ANOTHER BALL SOMEWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I better go hunting for that other Ball coz I know DOG GOD will not disappoint me.
“now for my next Magic Trick, after the Count of three, the ball will be in my mouth”
Thou shalt not take thy neighbor’s ball…

They tell me to keep my eye on the ball, but I’m all about putting my mouth on it!

“Mom, why are you making me pose like this? Is this for Dogster? Look, all I want is for you to throw the dang ball!”
Love Rosie
I’d forgotten what a clean tennis ball looked like. I can fix that…
“Never keep a dog from his balls, or I can promise you there will be disastrous consequences…”
Bad Rosie! BOL! (7 year olds won’t get that)
hmm I have there attention being this cute, if I get the ball that awaits me, how much cuter will that be? does that mean a bigger treat?

they said “keep your eyes on the ball”… but they never said for how long…

“We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious. They stole it from us. Sneaky little bi-peds. Wicked, tricksy, false!”
Some people like to have pet rocks, I like to have a pet ball.
Lets see who can stare the longest, me or that darn ball
“Aw Come on Ball, I Promise I wont get you all Slimy with Dog Slobber.”
Funny, that doesn’t look like the money I saved on my insurance.
Sure the human thinks this is funny now but let’s see how funny he thinks it is when I poop in his shoe later!
The terrier stealthily eyes the final ball that stands between him and the championship…
No one, and I mean no one, comes between my and my ball.
No one, and I mean no one, comes between me and my ball.
That ESP thing doesn’t work as good on the ball as it does on mom !
Shucks… I can’t believe I got stood up at the ball again.
Mom said to “leave it”, but she isn’t looking anymore……
That silly ball is making me go cross eyed! BOL!!
I love you ball!
This is proof,
a real photographer will do

“perfect shot”
“You…I will get you ball! All I have to do is jump over the 3 foot fence, jump over that small puddle, past the German Shepard, grab the ball, and run! Yes I can do that! Not so hard! Yeah, it’s easy as pie! Okay I’m ready!…and go! *Doesn’t move* Ah! I can’t do this!”

YOU said I could have that ball, mommy. WHERE IS my doggy stairs?

“Did she make you stay too?”
Like others before you, you’re going down ball… It’s just a matter of time.
Peek-a-boo!
Come to momma!
Looks like a stalemate.
I shouldn’t uv chewed up my racquet.
I dunno, with this economy, am I going to get a replacement?
“…and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil…”
Hmmmm, what’s it gonna take to get someone to throw me that ball?
You are so beautiful to me. Can’t you see?
You’re everything I’ve dreamed of–you’re everything I need–you are so beautiful to me.
“Mommy? Ya know that pet rock you have? Is there such thing as a pet ball?”
“I love you you! You love me! We’re a happy family. With a slobbery ball and wet kisses from you to me… Can’t you see I’m so happy…
“To chew or not to chew… That is the question.”
“The first date is always the hardest… Why can’t I just go up to her and say ‘I love you, Baby!’? I feel so stupid!”
“I know, I know. You don’t like me anymore… I just wanted to say ‘Good night!’”
Oh no! There are two things the nextdoor neighbor hates most: dogs and tennis.
“If I try, that cat will tear me to shreds! Let’s make a plan, so Mr. Cat won’t eat me. Meet me in my doghouse at 2:20 today. Deal?”
“Does anyone know David Aardsma? Could he hit this ball for me??” (PM me if you don’t know who David is.)
“Have you seen my new movie, Claws? Duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duhduhduhduhduh, Jump! Eeks!! I can’t reach!”
“Mommy said dogs don’t like tennis balls, but I’m not so sure…”
“I love to Dogster Museum. Ooo! Look how pawsome that ball is! I wonder if there are any security cameras…”
*Sigh* “Mark Rogers will do anything for the perfect shot. I bet this picture is for his photo caption contest.”
“Hmmm… I wonder if that ball tastes like bacon… Is it a world famous BACON BALL?!?!
“There’d be days like this my Mama said! *Mama said* Mama said*
“Wow… This is a thrilling experiance!! So this is what Huntington was talkin’ about!! Now I know how he feels when he talks to Rosie!!”
(Hi Rosie!!! Love ya!!)
“Does the guy with the whip really expect me to attack this? It’s to beautiful to attack… Maybe Mom was right when she said I wouldn’t like attack team…”
(I still love ya, Rosie!!)
“Wow!! That ball’s so clean!! I think I can fix that… First I drop it in the mud. Then, I return it. They’ll never notice I did it!!”
“I’ll get you my pretty! And your little racket, to!! Mwahahahah!!”

“Sooooooo We Meet Again”
“Why Isnt It Moving It Was Just Moving”
“Man This Time That I get My Mouth On That Thing Im Never Letting It Go “
“I Love You So Much But For Some Reason You Keep Running Away”
“I love you so much!! So why doesn’t Mama let me have you??”
Give the dog your ball, give the dog your ball you are in my power you will give the dog your ball!
Ball: You just blinked. You lose.
Chloe: Yeah, well, you just bounced. YOU lose!
Do you think these are convincing enough begging eyes?
“If I stare long enough, this ball will burst into a thousand MINY balls!”
This is not “fetch” by any definition.
