Sticks, rather than balls, and lying in the middle of the hard floor are both things Carter does as well. When we get the right snow for it, try throwing snowballs for Seargent. Carter loves snowballs because he gets to eat them after he catches them. Actually, he does this with sticks, too - Carter things the point of chasing and catching something is that you get to eat it once you've caught it. I second the Kong idea, best dog toy ever. Carter isn't a big peanut butter fan, but loves his kong filled with his regular kibble, then topped off with a couple of spoons of (plain, sugar free) yoghurt and frozen. The only "game" he plays is taking things apart with his teeth, so we have to be very careful what kind of toys he gets. Extra-large rawhide "bones" and real bones from out local organic beef guy are his favourite "toys". Glad to hear he's starting to settle in.
