What an adorable event on the tennis court with the famous players, Svetlana and Venus. But the dogs are the most adored. A great break from the stress of the game.
This will never get old.
Every tennis match should be like that! 🥰👌
Venus look is priceless. Best tennis match ever,player humans were great too.
I wish there was an extended version of this
those doggy sweatbands crack me up lol
Ball Dogs need to be at all professional tennis matches played in the U.S., the ratings would rival that of World Series.
Head Judge: “Dispensing treats is a very serious thing”…
These ball boys are the best ball boys I've ever seen..... they're so adorable 😘😘😘😘😘😘
Wonderful ! Three cheers for Venus and Svetlana for playing with the most lovable ball boys, ever ! Tells a lot about your caring nature !
Those sweat bands on their paws are too adorable!
Now that made me smile.
What a blast for these ball-chasing doggies! Loved it!
OMG, that is the most cutest and adorable idea ever. Like why didnt we think about that in the first place.... DUH !!
IF THIS EVER HAPPENS IM BUYING TICKETS FOR EVERY MATCH. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤓
Ohhhh I adored watching everything about this!!! The beautiful, super smart, focused, happy & utterly efficient doggies, PLUS how much the players loved it! I adore that they played & loved on those little babies afterwards & that they were given their treats! All dogs need loving & reward, no matter how professional 😍😭
Ok this is one of the cutest things I've ever seen.
I would lose tennis every time just to see the dogs run for the ball
This is Adorable. I Love It.
Venus and svetlana are without doubt two of the sweetest players
Oh my goodness who came up with this idea??? I LOVE IT!!! This was the cutest thing ever! The fact these two tennis players love dogs was a bonus. 👍🏾❤️

I’m imagining the commentary between Chrissy Everett and John McEnroe at Wimbledon. And how dog saliva on the balls effects the physics as it strikes the grass versus standard paved courts. Then they heatedly discuss the banning of the use of ball-dogs at the French Open due to the clay courts turning the sticky wet balls into dirt clods not to mention the dogs having to constantly wash their mouths which just exacerbate the wet ball problem...

Chris Everett didn't have to play anyone ellse we did eighteen consecutive matches with contenders and won the majority of the games under different assumed names here in blue. It was all filmed
They were intentionally missing into the net just to see more dog cross runs, that was a,amazing!
This is adorable. And I know it was made to be funny, but I bet if they actually did this at all tennis games, it would drastically increase viewership at all levels.
Kudos to both players. You can tell by the look on there faces that they really enjoyed that.
That is actually a good idea. It also probably help relieve their anger in case a player loses.
Freaking adorable. A great make anyone feel good video.
Wow! That was so much fun to watch - cute.
Venus is such a dog lover 🥰 so perfect for her, they were so cute together
And the chair umpire tossing treats, love it!
It must be hard for the players to not get distracted by these 2 good boyes
I think back when I could play tennis, I would have biffed a few just to see them retrieve the ball.
They took our jobs! Lol

There was a small breed called the Ramasseur (french for "gatherer") bred a few hundred years ago specifically for the purpose of retrieving errant tennis balls during the games of French royalty. They were so prized and their breeding so exclusive that only 200 were ever known to exist, and all were owned by the House of Bourbon. During the upheaval of the French Revolution, after the public execution of Louis XVI the people stormed his property, and - seeing the pampered custom animals as a gaudy extravagant reminder of absolute monarchy - promptly executed the last 10 examples of the breed in 1793. None of this actually happened. I just made that shit up. Seems like it could be true though...

sound like it could be true because you know what is true, back then rich people bred dogs as a hobby to see who can come up with new cool looking dogs. fucked up part about when they found a look of a dog they like they interbred the dogs to keep those traits going eventually becoming a breed. so basically all dogs of certain breeds are related.

In fairness the video is poorly shot. Too many close shots with few wide or framing shots. Often felt like the dogs were staged and not actually picking up balls on proper cue. So either it's fake or, even worse, so poorly shot it looked fake. Needed angles where, from wide, Venus would miss a shot and then the dogs did their thing. Also never showed where the balls go after they pick them up.
Absolutely the finest in showmanship and sportsmanship!!!!
this is fun and very cute
I never knew this was a thing omfg they’re so precious 🥺❤️❤️❤️
So happy this was randomly recommended to me 😂🥰😍
No foolin? PLEASE ASB we need this ball boys in our life. You can't tease us like this and expect us to just go on with the game.

Haha, I mean you’re really not wrong. Dogs and us were chilling together when we’re both still hunter gatherers, chasing after the same game. (Where and when this happened is up to debate, apparently there might’ve been two separate domestications one in Europe and one in asia) When we settled down, they settled down with us. Livestock animals like pigs, sheep, cows were all domesticated later by some thousands of years. If not for dogs, we wouldn’t have had the luxury to make permanent homes, and we wouldn’t have thought about domesticating other species.
