Dog toys (which, for Fergie, basically includes the entire contents of our home)

Wow, I guess they don’t make bug vacuums the way they used to:

Or maybe it’s just that they don’t make them Ridgeback-proof.  Hmmm….does anyone know of a good alternative use for this?

So, which Ridgeback do you think looks guilty?  (In case there’s any doubt in your mind—yes, that is a shoe dangling from Fergie’s mouth.)

Seriously—somebody needs to start a line of Ridgeback-proof kids toys.  I think we’d single-handedly make them a millionaire.  Maybe even a billionaire.

From there, they could move on to making a few other choice Fergie-proof items—stuff like shoes and books, sprinklers, beer cans, balls, baby bottles, water slides, gardening gloves, sand buckets, sea shells, and sippy cups.  That’d be a good start, at any rate.
