Dashing young Lochinvar, a social-register dachshund, will steal your heart in one of the cleverest adult picture (and text) books to come along in many a year. And Vasiliu's hilarious drawings capture the spirit of the sophisticated canine set and their equally abandoned owners. For here is an exposé of Lochinvar's giddy life with "Mumsy"--a disarming divorcee, the former Mrs. Rippingham Cavanaugh III. Women envy her. Children adore her. Even Wall Street men of distinction dream of finding her tucked into their Christmas stockings. Why? Because Mumsy not only has a million dollars but she's built that way as well.

Mumsy's friends (and even her servants) are equally beguiling "characters." Her ex-husband has been banished to the Yale Club where he Whiffenpoofs away his lonely hours with other ex-wayward sons of Old Eli. But on hand to vie for Mumsy's affections is Sir Kedzie-Cowles, who sports an utterly devastating mustache and a walking stick which holds six fluid ounces, a jolly arrangement indeed because Mumsy is on a diet of mostly martinis. Lochnvar's own love affair is hardly so rewarding--his Afghan lady friend is as tall as a baby giraffe. Life, however, has its compensations. He belongs to the Bone-of-the-Month Club; he is always welcome at Hattie Carnegie's and the Chase Manhattan Bank; his tranquilizers are candy coated, and Mumsy's heart is as big as the sky itself.

Their Christmas party turns out to be the high point of the year. Too high, really! Even a woman of the world like Mumsy can find herself blushing.

But in the end we promise that you, too, will say, with Mumsy, "Lochinvar, I love you!"

Deceptive Advertising
There's a little bit of false advertising going on here unless you thoroughly read the description. There are three balls in the picture, but you are only purchasing two. Always read the whole description before buying!

Not the same rubber.
I just received these today. I already have two of the same size direct from the local pet store. The one thing I liked about them that made me want to buy more - my 13lb dog could chew on them all night and never leave a mark. The red one I received was as expected. The blue one I received was not made out of the same rubber. It was softer. We played catch a few times and it didn’t bounce the same. I looked away for 5 minutes and she had it already starting to shred. Not sure what happened but 1 of the 2 balls I was sent was not up to par, possibly defective.

Best Balls Ever!!!
Size: Medium
These are the best balls ever! We have 2 very active ball loving dogs and these bounce very well and they actually hold up with active play and chewing. They still look brand new after daily use for months!

Finally a ball my power chewers cannot destroy
Size: Medium
I have two dogs, an American Bully and an American Pit Bull Terrier, and both of them love to chew. Most balls last a very short time around here before they are shredded or missing big chunks. This one has actually held up. They chase it, tug on it and sit and chew on it, and it is still in one piece with no pieces breaking off. One of my favorite things is being able to put food inside. I add some kibble or small snacks, and they will happily sit and work on it for a long time. It keeps them busy, gives them something safe to chew, and they get a little reward while they play. When they are done, I just rinse it out and it is ready to go again. If you have strong jawed dogs that usually destroy toys, this ball is worth trying. Mine really enjoy it and I feel better knowing they finally have a ball that can keep up with them.
