Thanks Donna - I love the feature that you can click on and hear the actual squeeker sound the toy makes! Very nice site......

Tricksie got her pig today and she loves it.

donnarod · 04-28-2009, 11:37 AM

Sorry, it didn't last 2 hours and she had the stuffing out, ripped the neck off.
They have no refund or exchange policy.
Guess I will have to get her a semi-tire, new of course.

Sorry about the stuffed pig

..it really is so frustrating!! I have to say though that the TY Beanie stuffed bone shaped toys (they squeak & crinkle) that I got from the same place on Easter are still in tact! Mine are super rough on toys....not one hole! It is amazing to me!! With the 15% discount, I'm going to order more of these!! I see that PetSmart sells the TY Beanie dog toys now. They seem to have good reviews also....for now I'm sticking to these bone shaped stuffies.

WELL, I will try this one. I am going broke with this baby of mine.
Thanks for telling me.

So funny! She looks like such a little angel in your avatar!!

At least I have two of them to blame! They play tug of war with all of their toys and that is why they rip! I have the larger black paw print bone and the smaller pink zebra one...so far no holes or rips!! I'm going to order the larger camo one and the heart one I think...I hate that they are the same toy but I've had to throw so many away!!!

I am baby sitting my Granddaughters little tiny Pom, the best toys are my DH old socks that they play tug of war with. Think I will quit spending money on toys.

Wow that site has a huge selection of toys. I saved it. Thanks for sharing

donnarod · 04-29-2009, 04:58 AM

She got the pig and had a hole in it in no time, so disappointed.

FlDebra · 04-29-2009, 06:29 AM

The site is super to work with if there is something wrong with the toy but none of them can guarantee against our little "terrors" ripping them up. Mine will sometimes play with a plush toy for months never chewwing it up, then suddenly one day, he just rips it to shreds!

Try Dr. Noys Toys -- they are great (and available on that site) -- they have no stuffing. The plush is sort of doubled over on itself making them still feel full but even if your little one rips somewhere, no stuffing. Mine will still occasionally try to get the squeaker out, but Dr. Noys thought of that too and includes an extra squeaker and sells more squeakers separately. They seem a little expensive but will outlast the other toys by far.

I also bought mine the Hide-A-squirrel Jr. on that site and Ben has played with it a LOT without tearing open the little squirrels. He loves to chew on them, but has been gentle so far. Unless I can find something like these, I just buy the cheaper plush so if he shreds them quickly I am not out too much money. I even hit the garage sales one weekend and bought a bunch of baby toys. I got a little Gymboree squeaky monkey that Ben loved for a quarter no less! It will probably last forever -- go figure.

You know...I'm thinking there must be different makers of the "Hide a Squirrel" because you are the 2nd person to say that your squirrels haven't been torn apart. I think I ordered mine through PetSmart at Christmas and the squirrels didn't last but two days! I tried to sew them up a bit but it always makes me nervous that they might get to the squeakers and choke on them if I don't catch them so out the toys go! Thanks for the tip on the Dr. Noys though....So far I'm sticking with the TY Beanie Bones...they really are holding up....THAT is amazing to me...

Tricksie ripped her hide a squirrels up in no time.
Think I will try the Dr. Noys, a lot of people have told me about them.

Might be the difference between sizes. They have a Jumbo, large, and Junior. I have the Junior and the squirrels are pretty small. Seems the smaller toys are less likely to be torn apart at my house. But the Larger size has replacement squirrels you can buy -- they are usually 3 for around $6.

I love the Dr. Noys toys. Ben also like to sneak his outside and then leave them. With so many dogs going out the door at once, I don't always catch him with one in his mouth. I have to pick up toys everytime before I can mow. Even after being left outside for who knows how long, a trip through the washer, and his Dr. Noys frog is still in good shape. maybe just a tad sun faded.
