Many fur parents can attest that balls are indeed a dog’s number one favorite toy. They are chewy, bouncy, and practically the better choice than sticks. But among the many types of balls in the pet toy store, this adorable pooch is in love with tennis balls, and his obsession with it is taking the entire internet by storm.
Ruger, the black pooch in question, has been known in their neighborhood as the sweet and friendly pup who loves to play outdoors. He would often be spotted playing fetch in the park with his fur mom, Mindy Reminga, or chasing around squirrels in his spare time.
But is there is one thing Ruger is known for the most, it is definitely his love for tennis balls. Mindy shared that the pooch is so obsessed with tennis balls that he would never go a day without playing with the toy or having one in his mouth.
That is why Mindy decided to buy the pup a bucketful of tennis balls to play with during the lockdown. With the help of her family, she filled a homemade piñata with over 20 balls and suspended it on their ceiling for excitement. They then tied a string to the piñata with a ball hanging from one of its ends.
When it was finally time for Ruger to rip open his surprise, the whole family gathered around as the pooch curiously pulls the piñata open. Once the piñata was ripped, out fell dozens of tennis balls, much to Ruger’s confusion.
But while he was a bit confused at first, it was definitely short-lived, as he immediately went berserk the moment he realized he was surrounded by tennis balls. He was so ecstatic to see too many balls that he couldn’t help but wiggle in delight and had trouble choosing which one he liked the most.
Ruger’s hilarious clip immediately made rounds on the internet and earned a whopping 2.3 million views on TikTok and around 48,000 upvotes on Reddit. Watch Ruger’s piñata surprise here.
