A Delightful Distraction

Having one curious young pup named Hudson can lead to all sorts of ways to entertain the youngster.  On this particular afternoon, our little fur child was rambunctious and wanted to chew on everything in his sight.  The husband and I led him to the backyard for some physical exertion which immediately backfired.  Hudson began finding items he wasn't allowed to have and running around the yard with them in his mouth.  My husband brought him an ice cube to play with and eat, then my husband went back inside.  Hudson happily chewed on the cube then perked his ears up once my husband opened the back door to join us back outside.  My husband had the ice cube tray over his shoulder and walked into the middle of the yard and dumped our entire stock of ice cubes into the yard.
See.     
 Hudson was in dog heaven! He didn't know where to start, so he just started circling the pile and licking all of them.
If you can't tell he is smiling.
The ice cubes kept sticking to his warm furry paws and he tried to kick them off all the while still licking every single ice cube.
Have at it furchild.
After touching at least every ice cube, the husband dispersed them throughout the yard using a Frisbee.  This made is look like it was raining ice cubes and Hudson happily jumped up and down trying to catch them as they fell.  It was very entertaining for both us and the pup, I recommend this to all puppy owners looking for a moment of sanity and laughter.  Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
