Poor rabbit. Thank goodness our dog never tore up her toys like that

Jeff, I always say the dog’s “making snowballs” when she dismantle a stuffed toy.

Beautiful dog! My former dog (lab) tore up every toy she had, except for the heavy duty Kong. My current dog has no interest in toys. Go figure.

I have Put Bulls and they enjoy tearing up stuffed toys. As soon as they destroy a stuffed toy, I pick up all the stuffing and toss it. If they swallow the stuffing it results in huge vet bills. I invest in Nyla Bone toys and Kong toys. They last longer and are much safer for the dogs.

Sweet picture, Thanks for the smiles.

We had a dog who liked to tear out the stuffing. Thankfully she never ate it!

An earlier dog would chew out the squeaker immediately.

Like BethL the dog we have now will not play with any toys. They have all been the same breed, so go figure.

With this dog—otherwise a mild mannered English golden retriever—the evisceration of stuffed toys is all about removing the squeaker. And she’s frighteningly competent at it!

Thanks for the smiles Jeff. Our pets are so crucial to my partner's wellbeing. She forgets how many there are and how to feed them, but they give her such comfort.
