You have to toss it fast and stop when you get to 90 degrees (or a little sooner). The ball fits snugly enough to not fall out when simply inverted. So yeah, oomph and stopping at the right time should do the trick.

1) Do you have a dog or dogs? Names, ages, breeds (pictures are welcome too!)
Yes, I have one dog, a classic 13 lb. short hair (smooth) male black and tan dachshund. He's 1 1/2 y.o.

2) What is your favorite pet related product?
Squeaky toys!!! He loves them. He has a parrot, his favorite, a carrot, and a tennis ball shaped dog bone.

As soon as I can I'll post some pics of him.

I have a dog! Her name is Marley (she's named after Scrooge's business partner in A Christmas Carol, NOT Bob Marley.) I've had her about 8.5 years (I got her while I was pledging, actually) and the vet and I think she's about 10 years old.

She is a delicate mix of many excellent breeds. She's completely black, about 60 lbs, with long fur. She's a pretty solid mid-sized dog.

Shelter dogs who were formerly stray have a reputation for having stomachs of steel, and my dog is no exception. Marley once ate an entire bag of Hershey's Kisses - with the foil wrapper still on - and that was a disaster. The only other thing I've found that she can't eat is scrambled eggs with Tobasco.

Thank you!

I usually make her wear a jaunty kerchief around her neck because it makes her look less like a poor, unloved stray. Typically she wears yellow or red. :) She loves wearing them (as evidenced by her frantic tail wagging when I show her a kerchief) but maybe that's because right after tying it on, I praise the living daylights out of her ("Who's a pretty girl? YOU ARE!!") and now she associates the two.
