Emmy loves to lick the condensation off water bottles, cups, etc. So, one day we put down the water bottle she was licking (ripped off the paper first then made sure the cap was real tight) and put it on the floor. She plays for hours now rolling the empty water bottle around and tries to pick it up. I don't see anything harmful with it, and she has soooo much fun. So instead of throwing away your water bottles, try and see if your yorkie will play with it. It's fun to watch too!!

Have fun,
Ashley & Emmy

My Lacie loves bottles too

We put coins, thimbles, thread rolls.. all kinds of things in small empty water bottles for penny.... She plays for hours on end.

Just make sure the lid in on very tight.

I'll have to try it.

Our kelly LOVES our empty water bottles. It's the noise from squeezing the empty bottle. While we drink from one she waits patiently for us to drop it. And as soon as we tear the paper off, she's already dancing and jumping for the bottle.

*NOTE OF CAUTION*

Do not just leave the bottle with your pet. when Kelly has successfully crushed the bottle full of hole she starts to knaw on it. and she chews little hard peices of the plastic come out. And there is blood on the bottle as well. So please monitor your pet's activity with it.

Thanks for the suggestion. My little Abby has a couple of toys but doesn't seem overly interested in them. Maybe I will try that tonight!

Wow!!!! Such good ideas! I am going to have to try some!!!!

My chihuahua LOVES water bottles! He runs around with them like crazy.

Adrianna is gonna have her hands filled when she tries to catch up to him!

How cute! I'll have to try that with Roscoe and Krissy.

simonandhallie · 04-04-2006, 08:05 AM

awwww I remember when Simon was a baby, he loved to play with those. It was so cute watching him trying to pick it up in his mouth

I just tried this and Jaxon is having a blast. Definitely something new and fun, plus I have tons of empties! Thanks for the suggestion.

I noticed my cutie would take off running with every water bottle he could find while helping me in the garden (he is a little master gardener!

), but I hate the glue they use to put the paper on with. I tried vinegar, goop (which in non-toxic), and hot water, none of which took the glue off. I remembered using peanut butter on my daughter's hair to get gum out, when she was little, and decided to try that. It worked like a charm! I then put some kibble in it, and he was off and running!

OMG...my Jack does the same thing. He goes nuts over soda cans and water bottles. For hours. The first thing he does with a water bottle is chew off the label. Then he chases it all over the house. We have to hid cans when we drink from them or Jack goes nuts! He came to us like this so the previous owners must have given him these. It is a stitch to watch and will keep him occupied forever. It is annoying though if you are watching TV so we just pump of the volumn!

My little Lillie (18 weeks) loves the cat ping pong balls that have rattles inside. She can't pick them up so she scoots them along with her mouth and they pop up and bouce all over. She will play with them an a water bottle longer than anything. The Cat ping pong balls come 3 in a package for a Dollar and are orange. She also keeps all her toys in her bed and when we play catch she goes get the ball and head for the bed.

winnismom · 05-12-2006, 11:31 AM

What about those tiny bottles of water..filling them up and freezing them. That way they can't chew through it because of the ice and it's also a soother for their teeth. I think I'm going to try that one!
