#so i made sure to grab the toy that's not severely sun damaged

[gar-a-ash]

Took Tassie out to play in what little snow melt we had and figured I could talk dog toys for a bit. Ever notice your dog getting frustrated or ignoring certain toys outside? There's a very good chance color is the problem! Most people know but need to be reminded that dogs are red/green color blind, and if you're trying to play with a red toy in green or yellow grass they're going to have a really hard time finding it, especially if it's dirty or the brightness is faded. This floppy flyer is Tassie's least favorite outdoor toy but for play in water it was the number 1 choice to make sure she didn't get frustrated looking for it in the taller grass and in the water. If you can find them blue toys are the best for visibility, and I like the Chuckit toys for the strong blue-fluorescent-orange contrast. Makes it easier for human and dog to find them!
