Alistair Clyde knows just how to make Titus, her Belgian Malinois, happy.
For his second birthday, she surprised him with an amazing gift: 400 tennis balls.
The Best Gift Ever
Titus is playful, loves to make his family laugh, and he’s pretty smart too.
He and his Chihuahua buddy, Bear, bring constant joy and entertainment to Alistair’s life.
With Titus’s big day approaching, Alistair wanted to celebrate in a grand manner.
“I was like, ‘What would he want for his birthday? What’s his favorite thing in the world? Tennis balls. No brainer!’” said Clyde.
A Sneak Peek
“I saw that you could buy 30, 60, 200 or 400 tennis balls,” Clyde said. “I first picked the 60 one and was like, ‘What? No. That’s not good enough. He deserves ALL the tennis balls!’”
When the tennis balls came to their house in two huge boxes almost as tall as Titus, he knew something great was inside.
He even got a sneak peek by grabbing two balls before his mom could stop him.
A Birthday Surprise Worth a Thousand Fetches
The real fun began on his birthday when Alistair let all 398 balls loose to go everywhere.
“It took about five seconds for him to start running around like a maniac in excitement,” Clyde shared.
After seconds of amazement, Titus went wild, running around and playing with his new toys.
While Titus was having a blast, Bear took it easy, watching from Alistair’s lap and munching on some treats.
Titus and His Tennis Balls
Titus is really enjoying Alistair’s gifts.
You can see him joyfully running around, chasing after balls, occasionally pausing to decide which one to play with next.
One clip captures Titus with sleepy eyes, looking like he might nod off, yet he’s still gently gnawing on a ball.
A Gesture of Generosity
Days later, the house is still filled with tennis balls.
So, Alistair took on a new mission: to donate many of them to a dog shelter.
This way, she could share the joy Titus experienced with other dogs still waiting for homes.
Giving Back the Love
Alistair’s decision to shower Titus with hundreds of tennis balls on his special day reminds us of the loving relationships we have with our dogs and the importance of showing them just how much they are cherished.
They deserve celebrations, moments of pure joy, and gifts that cater to their individual personalities and likes.
