My plan ultimately failed when Camilla got bored of just lounging about, saw the ball again and crawled over to it before handing it to me, making it very clear that she wanted to play right now; I threw it and it rolled to a stop near her Mom, who looked at it, looked at me and then beckoned for Camilla to grab it.
When my eldest pup rushed to grab it she also decided that she was going to promptly hurl the ball straight at Anput's face, because obviously that was what she needed to do after finally getting us to play with her.
As such I got up, rushed over to Camilla and hoisted her up again, ignoring her whimpering and fixing a sharp glare on her as I scolded her for being bad, causing her to go limp once more as she tried that pitiful angle once more.
