TENNIS BALL & TORI

Edie was an 8 week old puppy when Tori brought her home. She was a registered show dog, a Cocker Spaniel named Wish Upon a Star. Tori changed her name to a simple Edie, after the socialite Edith Bouvier Beale, Jacquie O’s first cousin. This was a fitting name given her canine pedigree and her elegant owner Tori. This elegance has been dented regularly by a slobbery ball inadvertently rolling out of Tori’s Marc Jacob’s bag across a meeting room floor or the faint smell of wet dog clinging to the pockets of her MaxMara coat. Tori is now so attuned to collecting tennis balls for Edie that the sight of any stray ball rolling down the street has her checking herself before she breaks into a sprint. This is the object Tori never leaves home without.
