| My yorkie and poodle have never gone through a toy. They have 3 toy boxes throughout the house. Now, my pit chews them apart as soon as he gets them. When he comes inside I have to pick up all toys and hide them in closets.

| Coco's a toy killer. I watched her shred a new rope toy in two minutes. Even the folks at Petsmart were impressed when I brought the remains back within the hour! I don't buy those anymore. Stuffed toys have a 50/50 chance. There are many lost souls awaiting needle and thread in the "pet cemetery." |

| Callie has never "killed" a toy we rotate and one that are not her favorite I send over to my moms house where her yorkie and beagle "kill" them lol and they go through at least two a day probably. My moms beagle does it like a science its kinda freaky she will work the squeaker to the seam of the toy them work the seam until its comes undone pulls the squeaker out and kills it and shes done. The yorkie Sammy likes to open it up any where and pull out all the stuffing everywhere and put the squeakers in his food dish.

| Huey kills toys at a variable rate. He goes through a plush squeakie toy every 2 or 3 months. I have found the only indestructible toy is the Hartz dura play. He has 3 of the bones and a ball, all of which still squeak and are intact after years of play. (Do not get the dura play zoo balloon toys-he chewed the stem of the "balloon" off within the 1st 30 min). I have not bought any of the kong toys, because if it is hard and doesn't squeak, he is absolutely not interested. He loves to run throught the house squeeking his toys.

| My Muggles will kill one in about a week. Especially if it has stuffing in it, loves to put that all over the house. The only ones that have lasted for a few months now are his puppy kong and his kong wubba - he is 4 months old. |

| Mia is very kind to the toys...on the rare occasion she gets to play with them. I am not aware of a single occasion where she has chewed up a toy. Brody is very...verrrrrryyyyy...toy centric but will murder the occasional toy trying to get to the squeaker, especially the toys that are not sewn all that well. However, Brody has never seen a toy he does not want (own?) even if it is still on the shelf at the store. He got a huge stuffed "jack" that was, in my opinion, too big for a Yorkie, 'cuz I picked it up to move it to look for Yorkie sized toys in TJ Max and he saw it in my hand and started barking in the store!!! So, into the cart went the jack, and he and Mia love it and play with it all the time. It is a great tug toy, actually. In fact, it accidentally fell out of the 'clean toys' bag while he was choosing some 'love seat' toys (toy box # 1). The jack is a 'bed' toy (toy box # 2), and Brody is a 'neat freak' with his toys, so after a few minutes, he picked it up in his teeth and Yorkshire Terrier Retriever'd it into our bedroom and placed it on our bed then returned to the love seat to play with the newly cleaned toy treasures that 'belong' on the love seat.

| Ziva and Abby pick the "toy of the week" and take turns mutilating it until its done! Last week, out of the blue, they did two new nylabones in, guess I won't buy them for a while. We use mostly infant toys from yardsales (very sturdy, and they love the crinkle ones) and fleece strip toys made from old blankets. |

| P-Nut can destroy any stuffed toys -- and most others -- in nano seconds. I remember when he got several stuffed toys as presents from his auntie - they were history within a few minutes: heads torn off, ears demolished.... It took a lot of trial, error and $$, but we now have toys he can't destroy in the first sitting - mostly Kong (the durable cloth Wubba - it takes a while for those to be destroyed - and their rubber balls). He also gets something called the "jaw gym" which is a very durable rubber bone - it's bouncy, so he can throw it all over the place for himself and run after it. He's never put a dent in it. |
