New toy in the house!

It's a very long squirrel whose body makes lots of crinkle noise and it's tail has a squeaker that sounds like a dying animal - what could be better for a rat terrier?! 
 
We let D'light check it out and he quickly said "No thank you!"
 
Then it was Soos' turn....
 
"This is rat-tastic!"

"I love this tail!"
 
 Soos feel asleep after all that fun and I draped the squirrel behind him so you could see how long it is! 
 
Too much fun for Soos!

And then a couple days later out came the squirrel!
 
 
 
Look who has learned how to play tug - good boy Soos!
 
 
More play time and look who's coming to see what all the commotion is about....
 
 
Catty's turn to play with the squirrel!  All she wants is for me to play tug with her.  Don't you worry about Soos - hear that squeak?!
 
 
Catty keeps playing with the squirrel and Soos has found his favorite ball.
 

Catty is done with the squirrel so Soos and I keep playing.  I toss it and it lands on the peanut. 
 
 
The frustration barking we don't want.  So, I lower  the criteria for Soos and move the toy to a place that Soos can grab it with some help - which boosts his confidence!  And guess what - foster dad is home so Soos says "time to go get some snuggles!"
