| Yorkshire Terrorist! Well Sassy has turned out to be a Yorkshire Terrorist, as she has killed two identical toys and only has one more before they are all well, tagged for body bags. We have decided to replace these with rope toys only, as anything stuffed is fair game for her terror. She has destroyed one of two identical puppy couches/beds (it folds out into a bed), and I only hope that my sewing job saves it for a while. Those things are $15.99 each, not something I really want to see destroyed but it's better that then the couch. Is she the only Yorkshire Terrorist on the forum? |

| My Tobi is also a yorkshire terrorist. He has torn up his bed, his leash, 5 pairs of socks, and at least 5 plush toys in the last 3 months we've had him. Tobi is only 7 months old. I guess they start young! hahaha

| Be careful with those rope toys. They can swallow the strings and it can cause an intestinal blockage, which is very scary and most of the time requires surgery to fix I had to take them all away from Izzy, she's a big chewer!

| so right about the rope toys, they can cause a blockage. Sawyer is a little terrorist too. I haven't found any toys he can't destroy; when they start to look " wounded" I send them to the great dead toy yard in the sky. I love to replace them however, so it works for me. I thought I had found a winner in a rubber football with a squeaker inside; but after the attack of Sawyer, it now sounds like a dying animal; and when the air comes back into the ball, it sends chills up and down my spine with the worst sound I have ever heard. I will continue my search for the best toy in the world, surely there is one out there ( he even knocked over a concrete bird in my front yard! It hit the walkway, and its poor little beak fell off.) These little wreckers have no mercy at all.

This is a link for an indestructible dog bed, a big pricey but if they destroy it they will give you a refund. http://www.orvis.com/store/product_c...ubcat_id=12717 | |

| Milo has recently turned to the dark side as well. His once overflowing toy basket is looking a bit empty these days. |

| Buddy has gone through rubber toys, stuffed toys, chew bones etc like a buzz saw! I have given up buying toys for him. He has a toy box full of hard rubber ones that he won't touch. He carries his favorite rubber clown around all day and his chew bones. That's all this poor little boy has I have pulled colored string from his butt, he's been hospitalized for ingestaton of nylabone fragments, has thrown up a leg of a stuffed spider he got for Christmas last year, two days later and I never missed the leg off the spider. Yorkies get into more mischief than a 2yr old! |

| Now that is bad Oh you guys have me worried to death now. She gnaws on her nylabones, and plays hard with all her toys. Even the hard rubber ones. I don't need her ingesting anything, but thank god she is never out of our site with her toys. We watch her like a hawk. However that doesn't mean she hasn't eaten some of the stuffing of the now two stuffed toys she mutilated and killed. oh hum life is a Bitch and then you buy one. (She was until I spayed her-now they just call her it or a spay) |

| Nope... HAHAHAHA Ive got 2 terrorists at home! Went through COUNTLESS beds & toys! They kill toys within a day and tore apart beds over the course of a couple days! Holes in walls, shoes destroyed! it was a very sad sad time in my life! hahaha They outgrew it thank god, but their toys are still fair game. I buy them the stuffed squeaky toys though bc in all reality they are their favorite! They love NOTHING better than destroying a toy and shredding it to pieces. I take it away when they get the stuffing out cuz I don't want them to eat the stuffing. I just couldn't take away all their fun though by not buying them those toys anymore! On another note **rope toys are NOT good toys!!!** I have thrown away ALL rope toys my dogs have had. 2 people I KNOW... one with a cat and one with a dog, had to rush their animal into surgery (that costs them upwards of $2,000) bc their pet shredded and swallowed those rope toys and somehow they tangled their intestines from the inside. This can and WILL cause death to the animal in a slow and VERY painful way if the surgery is not done!

If I am busy in another room or on the phone, Milo hops onto the coffee table and goes through my purse. The first couple of times it totally reminded me of when the Boy Wonder was a toddler------any time I was on the phone he was terror tot! | |

| Double Trouble Hello everyone, I am new to Yorkie talk, and really enjoy reading about your Yorkies, and what they get into. I am still laughing! I have two little Yorkies, only a few months apart, and I can relate to a lot of the things that your puppies have done. My husband says "these two should try robbing a bank." What one doesn't think of, the other one does. So far, they have chewed a hole in our brand new black leather easy boy chair, chewed the woodwork, and a whole lot of other things too numerous to mention. In spite of everything, we keep right on loving them, and no day is ever dull. Thanks for sharing. Janelles |

| LOLOL, Yorkie terrors they can be. I have always felt luck Max does not destroy things usually,he does shake his toys so hard that when they are washed they explode like his Barney toy which I had to qickly find a replacement (on its way), but here is something he did one time and I still find feathers all over. My MIL, before she died, liked making feather pillows, all kinds of pillows for your bed, your couch, just all over. When she died, hubby brought them home and I was going to make some nice large ones for our bed. In the mean time they were in a pile on the floor and Max and the cat would play hide and seek and just have so much fun. One day, I had to take hubby to have tests and he had to have a driver, so I was gone about 4 hours, when we opened the door it looked like it had been snowing, those feathers were everywhere. I guess Max had the Yorkie Zoomies and ran and ran through all those feathers through the whole house. That was in January and I still find feathers when I clean. Normally he is pretty good, course I am home 99.9% of the time so he does pretty good.

| Thanks so much for the warning about rope toys. After I read your message, I went into the toy box, grabbed them, and they are now in the garbage. I never even gave it a thought as to how dangerous they can be. Tootsie and Teddy play with them constantly, and I sure don't want any problems. Janelles |
