I can’t remember where the first Mallard toy came from but it was one of the toys that Twix fell in love with. It was a small one so I ordered another one on Amazon. It was bigger than the first one. He totally LOVED it. To the point he destroyed it. The first toy Twix actually destroyed. That was about a month ago when I had to throw the left overs of the toy in the trash so he wouldn’t eat them.
Last week I went on Amazon and got him another one. I intended to give it to him on Christmas but after me working all weekend he had so much energy in him and he deserved being a happy boy. I can buy another one for Christmas. So I gave it to him, something I will never regret.
I have not seen Twix as happy as he was last night when he got his new Mallard. He played with it for hours! He slept with it in bed last night! I don’t know how many times I threw it and he went to get it. We played hide and seek with it. This is THE TOY for Twix. I fear for the day when we see a live Mallard… I’m not sure I know what he will do!
For those of you now wondering why BamBam didn’t get anything… He doesn’t play with toys. He has not realized the joy with it. And honestly, I was a little jealous of his deafness last night… that Mallard squeaks.. a lot! But BamBam just hasn’t figured it out. Sometimes (I think three times in his lifetime) I’ve seen him play with a toy or a water bottle… and I have tried. So if/when the day comes that he starts to play with something… I will buy loads of it for him!
