Gotta love that Sable!

Sable loves to go out to the field with the other dogs. Most of the time, she and Piniella just do their own things - Piniella might dig a bit while Sable wanders around and just seems to enjoy the outing.

Every now and then, Sable decides she is going to enter the ball game. This is tough since it might be a bit like your grandmother deciding to go out and play catch with the pros at Yankee Stadium. Halor and Izzy are young, fast and totally focused (not to mention ball-hogs). Piniella waits to join the game until Hal and Izz have worn themselves out.

Here is Sable deciding to play ball. She stops wandering and starts looking for the next ball toss. When the other dogs run, she goes galloping after them. I don't think she sees all that well, but she seems happy to be doing what everyone else is doing. On the odd occasion that she gets the ball, she runs about 10 paces and drops it - leaving it for Hal to find later.
