Rogz Grin Ball fans, ever dog-paddled for your pride in front of a pelican?

How a Rogz Grin Ball Turned Me Into the Pelican Police of Lake Alexandrina

My paws got wet, mum got a sunburn, and the pelicans still owe me respect

Ever chased something you love so much, you’d swim through fishy water, risk a nose-boop with a pelican, and do it all again six times in a row? Welcome to my summer at Milang, where one grinning ball ruled my soul—and the lake.

Snout-deep in adventure and soggy with joy, I became the bobbing champion of Lake Alexandrina chasing my Rogz Grin ball. Now listen, hoomans. This isn't just any ball. This ball grins back. It floats, it bounces, and it makes me look like a cartoon when I catch it mid-air. It’s basically a toy and a comedy prop in one. Iconic.

"Used to take 15 minutes to find decent fetch gear near water. Now it’s one grab, one Grin, full day of tail-wagging adventure."

They call it Milang. I call it Heaven with feathers.

We pulled up near the jetty, the air smelling like sunscreen, eucalyptus, and destiny. Mum unzipped the bag and out came the holy object: my Rogz Grin ball. I practically did backflips right there on the grass.

The first throw? Glorious. It arced through the sky like it knew what joy meant. I bolted in, ears full tilt, water slapping my chest as I powered towards it like a furry torpedo. Then came the twist...

Enter: the pelicans.

Three big-beaked loafers circling my ball like it owed them rent. They squawked. I woofed. One flapped its wings at me like it was conducting an orchestra. Did I back down? Heck no.

I paddled faster, secured the prize, grinned wider than the ball itself—and zoomed back like I’d just saved the world from aquatic bird invasion. Every time we threw it, same drama: ball floats, pelicans plot, I intervene with unparalleled heroism. Honestly, someone should give me a medal—or at minimum, more treats.

Let’s talk gear that holds up

This isn’t my first lake rodeo, hoomans. And most balls? They either sink, split, or vanish to the Dimension of Lost Squeakies. But the Grin ball? Solid. Perfect bounce. Hilarious grin. Mum even laughed so hard she dropped her phone... twice.

Other things I rate this ball highly for:

• Floatability: No sinking dramas. It plays nice with lakes.
• Grip: Easy to chomp without sacrificing the comedy factor.
• Tough Love: Survived an entire week of throws, against wind, water, and rogue pelicans.

Mum said it even comes in different sizes—because apparently not all dogs have a generous overbite like mine. Rude, but fair.

One ball, one beach, one dog’s big moment

Let me say this loud and clear for the pooches in the back: a summer adventure doesn't need complicated planning or a 12-step packing list. It needs one epic toy (hi again, Rogz Grin ball), a stretch of shoreline, and someone you trust to throw straight.

I wore the salt spray like cologne. My coat dried crispy. Mum ran out of snacks. And still—I wanted one more toss. Because with a good toy and soggy paws, life feels small and big at the same time. Like you’re chasing something—and maybe, for a moment—you are the chase.

Hoomans, next time you pack for a lake day, don’t just bring sunscreen and sandwiches. Bring the toy that makes your furry best mate run like it’s the last fetch on earth.

Trust me. Pelican standoffs are nothing when you're holding the grin. 🐾

High paws,
Thor
