    Oh, the Talus-man!  So cute.
     
    For chew, squeak, tug all in one, Gracie likes the Kong Air Q-tease... Looks like a fat squirrel on the end of a rope.  Squeaker in the head, Kong air squeaky tennis ball in the body.  Also comes in duck, rooster, and bluebird versions, as well as Small and Medium sizes for all.

    Gracie is a very "enthusiastic" player. She usually likes toys that she can flip in the air, that can take a thorough head shaking and that hold up to being seriously chewed. I second the vote for the Hol-ee Roller ball.

    My favorite is the Busy Dog Ball from [linkhttp://www.busydogball.com]www.busydogball.com[/link]
     
    Mine still play with it everyday, and have yet to damage it.  That is a miracle in my house.

    Bailey loves the hide a squirrel... but I want to also get the the bird and the bee one, but I didnt find it on there (I actually wanted the bee when I ordered the squirrel) but all I can find are the refills.  Am I missing something?  Can we still get the other two?

    I got all of the hidey toys from dog.com, so i'm not sure why you can't find them. I think I ordered two of each a few months ago, and then we stashed some in the cloest until the first ones got too torn up to play with.

    [:(] I cant find it lol.

    Blue loves this guinea pig I got him for his birthday. He likes to chew on it the most and of course his teddy bear which he snuggles with.

    Lily and Charlie don't really understand the whole hide-a-squirrel concept.  I mean they play with the squirrels and the trunk sepearte.  How do you get your dog to maximize his enjoyment with this toy.  I mean, Lily just wants me to through the squirrel so she can catch it.

    Tuffies! My dogs love stuffed toys, but they always rip the cotton out in 20 minutes. The tuffies have lasted 6 months, with hardly a dent in them. They;re soft and they squeak, but they are impossible to tear up. My dogs also love anything with food in it...especially kongs and treat balls.
    • Puppy
    My puppy (7 months) is ripping her stuffed toys within minutes.  At at least $5 a pop and the fact she's making a mess with the cotton which I try to pick up as soon as she gets it out, I'd like to know what "tuffies" are and where to get them.  I found the American Kennel Club toys pretty sturdy, but the last two I bought (a little cardinal with a ball in it and a blue bird) she destroyed and chewed up the ball.  Her toy box is empty as I am throwing out about two toys a day.  HELP.

    Kane loves his rope toys, he loved his stuffed teddy bear until he totally destroyed it and I threw it in the bin. But most of all his squeaky toys the louder more annoying they are the better he likes them.
     
    I would recomend plastic toys that won't tear easily. Kanes teddy bear that he got for christmas lasted one day till he had ripped something off it.

    I just let her watch me put them into the trunk and take them back out a few times.. then I put them in while she was watching and walked away... not out of the room, but started looking on here and just left her to play with it.  A little while later they were out... now as soon as I stick them in she pulls them out.  I think you just need to put them in there with them able to see that and then give them some time on their own with it to work it out.
