| Tennis ball proof Does anyone know of any tennis ball that is Yorkie proof? I have bought several dog toys with tennis balls attached and Kobe always seems to tear off the fuzz off the ball. |

| I'm still looking, Vinnie had a tennis ball for 20 minutes about 3 weeks ago, just a few days ago i noticed he still had tennis ball fur wrapped around a tooth and he will not let me in to get it out. This tennis ball was specifically made for dogs too!!!

| I'm not really sure what the difference is but anything with a tennis ball attached to a dog toy Buddy has shredded to pieces. He has a real tennis ball which he has had for at least two years and has not even tried to chew it. We play with it daily. |

| so it sounds like the way to go is to buy "real" tennis balls, not dog toy tennis balls. |

| nope. edgar eats the fuzz off of his *tennis* balls! (name brand, not "for dogs") he also shreds ropes on toys if you leave him to them too long. we just can't keep them in the house. he cannot have anything like a "fuzzy porcupine" with long "hair." he likes to rip it off. i had to quit buying that kind of stuff |

| i have the same problem...roman just chews the fuzz right off. i still use it to play fetch, i just dont let him have it when hes unsupervised. i also trim the fuzz right as he almost has it pulled off. it would be nice if there were ones that he didnt chew...so if anyone knows of a good one please let us know!

| I wish we could find one that will hold up for Riley as well. She isn't a destructive chewer, but boy does she love to eat fuzz. And I'm not too fond of finding neon green in her stools! |
