| Need Ideas For The Best Squeaky Toy(s) Livi had a squeaky toy that was a perfect size for her and since it was the shape of a (skinny) dog, it was perfect for her to pick up by the neck and shake. It was her FAVORITEEEEEEEEEEEE toy!!!!!!!!!! When she had Coccidia, I was contantly bleaching things and I was just spraying that toy with a bottle of water & bleach mixture. However, I was soaking some of her things in the sink with bleach and, without thinking, threw that toy in with the other things. When I realized what I had done, it was too late. There was no way I would have been able to get all of that bleach out of the toy, since there is the opening where the squeaker is. I had to throw her favorite toy away and since then we haven't been able to buy any that she loves. I knew you guys would have some great suggestions so that I can make my little Livi happy again. Thanks!! Tammy |

| Was that a tiny loofa dog? Oh no! I am assuming you tried another loofa dog? Well....I found a fun one recently...a TY beanie bow wow toy. The cool thing about it is that it crinkles AND squeaks and is relatively small. I bought "Stink the Skunk". I also made a squeaky toy...maybe you can repair loofa dog? Petsmart had a package of replacement squeakers. Poor baby! That sounds like something I would do! I feel your pain.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | if it was all rubber it doesn't sound like a loofa dog (also known as Bobo) to me. sorry, can't help with any rubber toys. Morgan isn't allowed to have them because she destroys them really quickly. She does love her squirrels in a tree toy and her Bobo. She also loves this little 'pink' dog i got from victoria's secret. LOL its not even a dog toy but she loves to toss it around.

| No idea about toy but... what about going back to the pet store where you originally bought it from and asking them to look up the brand/company that made it? Maybe you can google them online and find a replacement toy.

| My little Roxie loves the small furry animal toys they have at Petco - I know not everyone's favorite store - but they have a little pig, I think a duck and sheep and several others - they are fairly inexpensive and tiny. But Roxie also loves her bigger toys!! Especially her squirrels! She is just 3 1/2 punds and loves her gray squirrel and her black squirrel that are a part of the American Kennel Club line - this line highlights hunting type animals. We buy the smallest ones in this line, as I think they come in several sizes. I think if you can find the rabbit, it comes in a pretty small size. You can get these a lot of places, even at Target. These are good substitutes for when Roxie can't be outside hunting for the real ones!! We need a brown toy squirrel though - because that's what she chases around the yard every day! Also, another one of her favorites is a red fuzzy flip flop that I bought in the $1 bin at Target last year - Target also has small toys similar to the ones at Petco and often for just a buck - look in the pet aisle if you don't see something in the dollar bins. yorkiesmiles |

| Gracie loves any of the Dr. Noy toys. They are tiny and perfect for Yorkies. The dog toys have squeakers and the cat toys have cat nip. However, in a pinch, you can buy the cat toy and put a squeaker inside instead of cat nip.

| I have found great toys for Toto at Jefferspet.com and the prices are so reasonable. They have the Dr. Noys Xsmall and she has three sets of all of them as well as the Pip Squeaks. She has a set at our home, in our motorhome and in whatever condo/apartment we are living in while Patrick works. She loves the Dr. Noy green frog the best!! http://www.jefferspet.com/ssc/produc...198CQGFLGW02QF

| Yea, it wasn't a loofa dog if it was all rubber. You might try a loofa dog. They have a bunch of them at Petco. If it's a winner, buy two extra and trade them out regularly so one is always available. They are also washable. Poor baby and poor mama! Good luck in your toy search.
