Ocho shreds toys within minutes...makes it look like it snowed in the room! He doesn't shred the plastic squeak toys, so those are pretty durable. Also, his favorite toy in the world is an empty water, gatorade or pop plastic bottle...I have no idea why he loves that so much but he goes nuts for it! And the best thing is, it's cheap, you can recycle it when you're done, and you get a drink out of it!
