on Janice, on Jasper, on Nero and Smokey! 🛷 Santa Paws Day 2022 at Dogs Trust Ireland — the one where all the dogs choose a toy.

You go for it, Greg, don't let anyone tell you that duck is too big for you.

I love when the dogs do a victory lap after picking a toy.

I also love the ones that have to check everything out whereas others just go straight for a toy and don't look back.

I look forward to this every year and it's always perfect.

How do they know which toy is the right one of them?? (Though that penguin was standing in a clearing: I am suspicious!)

Thanks for posting this: I had forgotten how much I loved this last year!!

Thank you for this! I like that Jasper chose the person behind the camera to be his toy, Nala just wanted to run, and Queenie chose ALL the toys.

Nero's my other favorite after Greg - all businesslike and purposeful, "I knew what I wanted when I came in and I got it and I am just going to be on my way now, thank you all very much."
