| It was a hard night in the land of toys... Do your babies go through random destructive times??? Last night Harley decapitated "Frankin Bird", tore off "Big Pink Monkey's" foot, "Puppy's" ear is falling off, and now he's tearing at his bed???? He's not receiving any less activity than normal. If anything I've been letting him free in the apartment more, and training him more. We've been a bit shy on the walks because of the weather, but there is lots of play time. It's weird because he got all of these toys for christmas, you'd think those would last the longest, because he's still toting around toys from when he was born. and to be honest, he's only killed like 5-10 toys in the entire year + he's been around. Anyway RIP toys... so sorry that was your fate, (I don't think Harley apologizes)

No Longer a Member | Rizzo is going through a destructive phase right now. He normally takes such great care of his little stuffies, but the bunny lost its face last night I've been having to take things away from him that he's started to destroy. Suddenly anything made of paper material is fun to tear up. There has been a little less as far as walks go, but the weather is terrible and Rizzo hates the rain The poor toys... |

| When Sammy was younger we went thru lots of stuffed dollies. He would chew them open and take out the stuffing and have it all over. Now he will focus on one area of a doll, like the nose or eyes. He has a really cute stuffed lamb who we now call Lambie One Ear because someone chewed an ear off! He used to chew holes in his beds too but he doesn't do that anymore. Maybe they start to outgrow it as they get older. |

| Haha I can TOTALLY relate! My bf just came home on Sunday with new toys for Oliver (because he tore apart his old ones)...by Monday night he had ripped the head off his toy carrot and the beak off his toy duck! We even bought back up toys because he rips them up so fast and wants to eat the stuffing lol, my little monster!!

| My Fletcher is destroying those stuffing-less toys!! You know the ones that cost $10/each!!! I have to stop him all the time because he goes to work on a corner of it and rips it with his teeth. A teddy from a prior Christmas lost a leg 2 weeks ago and the pink bear lost his eyes and nose a week before that. Haloween bat lost a purple wing last week and his furregamo shoe toy was torn open.

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I can relate. Scarlett can destroy a toy in no time flat is she chooses to. Her Christmas lamb lasted exactly 2 hours. Yet there are a couple we have had since we brought her home in June.

Poppy's Mamma ♥ Donating Member | LOL Poppy does this sometimes too. Most of the time she will just carry her stuffed toys around in her mouth or sit with them, treating them like her 'babies'. But other times she turns crazy and goes for their throuts or is hell bend on chewing their legs off!

| I can relate! Jackson is generally not destructive at all w/ toys but it figures that the toys he loves the MOST are the ones he seems to love to chew off the most. His favorite toys ever are the Cuz ball (and any of those things made by JW Pet Company, those rubber squeaky balls, etc) and he chews a hole in them after a day if I don't take it away from him when we're done playing... I feel like I've been spending more money on toys than ever before, LOL!!

| Widget has unstuffed every toy I bring in the house. Now he's down to ripping the "stuffing less" bodies to pieces. It takes me longer to buy them than it does for him to distroy them. Our house usually has "snow" every where. |

| too funny I am sitting here cracking up imagining yorkies all over the world, raping and pilliaging their toys. Jusy too funny. Coop does it too. I had to cut and hand sew around the edges the left over peices oof his "raccoon" because he kept ripping it open. so we have a deaf raccoon, and a quadraplegic bunny foo foo. There have been many others that he doesn't know have gone to the big garbage bin in the sky. What is funny in our house he gets a 2nd wind at 10pm. and goes bananas for 1/2 or so. Thanks for the chuckle. |

| I feel left out! My two has yet to get rough and destroy any of theirs. Watching them play they are very gentle and take good care of them. Their favorite is the stuffingless fox. They like to play tug-of-war with it. No toys to replace but I'm out buying to add to their collection all the time! |
