It's rare that Darby has possession of a ball when Bonnie doesn't have one, too. 
When she does have one, as in this photo, she guards it very carefully--but also seems to tease Bonnie with it just a bit. 
Wish I understood canine body language a little better.  I need to re-read Patricia McConnell's books.  A recent post on her blog talks about play styles of dogs.  You can read about it here.

I'll have to check out that play style article later, sounds interesting
Darby is too cute with protecting that ball; Bonnie is good natured not to go and try to take it from her
(I hear rain is on its rain here next week)
