You toss the ball, he brings it back, you toss it again. The moment you sit down to answer one email, the ball lands in your lap. What he wants is something that moves on its own. This bouncing pig dog toy hides a rechargeable ball inside its plush cover. It hops up to 2 in (5 cm) off the floor, plays music and replays a voice clip you record yourself. Unzip the cover to charge or wash, then zip it back up. Bounce, music, recording and charging: Bounces on its own: up to 2 in (5 cm) of ground clearance, so it moves in a way a plain ball never does Music mode: tap the ball and it plays, so there's sound as well as motion Record and play: record your voice or a favorite sound, so he hears a familiar voice when it plays USB rechargeable: charge through the port on the ball with the included cable, so there are no batteries to buy Zip-off plush cover: comes off for washing, so the pig stays clean Unzip, record, charge, zip up. Unzip and remove the ball, press the power button to record, tap for music, turn the ball to the port to plug in the cable, then put the ball back and zip up. It works on most floors. Grass, tile, thin carpet and wood all work. Thick rugs slow it down. Two outfits: red overalls or blue overalls, both about 5.9 inches across and both with the same pink pig face.
