When Jack was a puppy every day he had a different favorite toy. That's the nature of some puppies.

However to this day, he is now over a year old and he still loves a few of those special toys.

One of those toys is the duck Pip Squeak talking toy. It's a very soft plush toy that has a removable sound box. When Jack picks it up or nudges it, it quacks. In fact, Jack has been through two ducks and he also has a pig, elephant, monkey and donkey. He has one of each of every animal character that the manufacturer has made thus far.

Jack has never tried to remove the sound box. If he had, it may not have been his favorite toy because we would have had to remove it. Sound boxes in dog toys should be watched carefully. They can be dangerous if swallowed. Jack is simply satisfied throwing the Pip Squeak talking toy in the air to make it talk and then running after it. He also likes to shake it.

"I like to show off my Cairn Terrier puppy photos. How cute do you think I am?"   Molly May My husband and I thought it was funny that Jack likes to throw toys and then run after them. It's quite comical to watch. However, if your think about it, it really isn't all that unusual. How many young boys do you know that play ball by themselves. They throw the ball in the air, hit it with a bat and run after it. :)

Jack's full registered AKC name is Happy Jack. We named him Happy Jack because he is always happy no matter what. If he could laugh, I'm sure he would do it all day.

It is my fantasy dream to see a dog laugh or smile. That would be the highlight of anyone's life. Think how much fun that would be if all dogs could laugh.
