Thank you Hector

You made two very happy puppies this morning.

They love them and Jiggers has been in heaven making noise for the past 1/2 hour.

 

[Hector]

You're very welcome, happy holidays. Poor Kryten, has the one with no squeaker lol. Jiggers looks like he's chewing the head off to eat it. Hopefully they can get many more days out of them .

 

[Smokeycat]

I deliberately gave Kryten the one without the squeaker. Maybe they will survive longer that way. Jiggers was having a blast squeaking away.

 

[Hector]

Maybe you can give them these toys a time limit like 1 hr a day hehehehe.

Denna still has hers! One year and counting.
One survived being the only toy in the house during T-Day - with 2 small kids to help her squeek the squeeky, too.

Kryten discovered the joy of toy destruction when he was 8 months old and taught Jiggers. Prior to that we still had the very first toys that I had gotten Jiggers including a non dog toy that he cuddled with in his crate. Now as long as there is no stuffing or working squeakers he's content to just shake them otherwise they must die. Stupid puppy.

P...well, you know about P's toys.

Will these toys last an hour, or, will they last longer than my last three pairs of shoes and are they for sale? Lol

Depends on your dog. My dog likes to play with them and he never chews on it with the intention to get the squeaker or destuff anything. If your dog is like my dog, then these will last forever and ever.

Describe your dog's destructive behavior with toys and I will let you know. How is the dog with squeaky toys? How is the dog with stuffing, but without a squeaky toy? How is the dog with squeaky, but without stuffing? When your dog chews up a shoe, do the shoes end up in bits and pieces? lol

This was the only piece too big to get sucked up in the shop vac. They shred any toy they get. I have a giant ball that squeaks which they loooove but only gets to come out under strict supervision. Been on the look out for a toy they can't shred, was hoping Kong would work but that didn't last long lol.

 

[Hector]

..............the toys would be destroyed within minutes..............lol..............and if the kong didn't last, there's no way these toys would last

What about a jolly ball? This ball is soft rubber and will keep it's shape. If the rope gets chewed up then toss it and the ball should last a long time.

Just avoid the jolly ball with a handle, it gets destroyed fairly easily as it gives them something to chew on.

I'm amazed to be able to say that both toys still look and sound like they did when they first got them. Others have died in the interim but for some reason these aren't on Kryten's kill list. No squeaker has survived past an hour in nearly 2 years and these two are over 3 weeks now. I'm confused.

 

[Smokeycat]

Forgot the pictures. Kryten refused to let me take his picture while he was playing so he got a hat.

Well good lol.*claps in joy* hahaha.

That picture of Jiggers is way cute and Kryten...well his face says it all lol.

In the first pic, I see Kryten in the background nibbling on that duckie *waves* .

 

[Smokeycat]

I'm amazed to be able to report that both toys are still intact and in complete working order. The only problem is that they need a bath. Why Kryten hasn't destroyed either one is a complete mystery but a welcome one.

Awesome! One was stuffed without squeaker and one was not stuffed with a squeaker right? Is the beak and wings still intact? I would think they'd tear those off already lol. So toys have to be stuffed with no squeaker or if there is a squeaker it cannot have stuffing? I'd love some pics.

 

[Hector]

Oh and is the squeaker even alive still?

 

[Smokeycat]

Other than being dirty both toys look (and sound, both squeakers work) like they did the day I got them.

They are both regularly chosen by either dog and they also make good indoor fetch toys for Jiggers. They have destroyed several toys since Christmas so the fact these survive especially since the first set was damaged quickly baffles me but I'll take it. I'll see if I can get pics while they have them.

 

[Hector]

They still look great!
