Dog chew toys that don't get them in trouble: Add your dog's favorites! (Thanks, daisee)

1. Fun stuff
- We leave empty cardboard boxes for the dogs to chew up. Also these loofah bones (cleans their teeth while they rip them apart) and TONS of cat toys (with catnip). (from veritableqndry)

2. Hard-to-destroy stuff

-At dollar tree they carry "milkbone" toys... she beats the hell out of them and still they hold up. (not to mention their only a buck if they destroy them) (from wakethewicked2)

- I've had good luck with these -- the avatar dog has destroyed everything but this kind. They come in different sizes and shapes and you can put treats inside for them to dig out: http://www.petmountain.com/produc...-kong.html . I get mine at a local farm store, but I'm sure you could get them at places like Pets Mart if you don't want to buy online. (from callpocket)

- Here are a couple that have survived Sophie so far:
  • Busy Buddy bouncy bone - We gave up on the rawhide inserts. She rips those out in seconds but likes the toy without them anyhow and cannot kill it.)
  • Everlasting treat ball -Again she pulls out the expensive inserts right off the bat...but she likes bouncing the toy. You can also hide dog kibble in the middle for the dog to try to get out, which entertains him for awhile. She hasn't managed to rip this one at all yet even though it feels soft and flexible.
  • Jolly Ball: - Ours is bigger than the one at this link. It's hysterical to see her stick her snout in the hole and wave the ball in the air. It's bigger than her head. She runs around the house with it on her snout, growling and acting like a maniac. I don't know why she can't chew it up, but she can't.
  • Then there are big Nylabones, which she can kill eventually. But they take a long time to die. (from olu)

Today Bear ate Bobo, his jumbo loofa dog. (No, its not from petsmart, but we called it Bobo anyways.)
He had that one since last Christmas. It had always stayed in the house, and he slept with it. He really seemed to love Bobo.

But Santa brought Bear a new Bobo for Christmas this year. A nice clean green one. So we let Bear takes his old Bobo outside, and the new one stays in the house.

Today I saw stuffing all over the yard. Sadbye Rip Bobo.

She turns TWO on December 31. When we took her to puppy obedience class, the instructor said a lot of goldens are puppies till they're two, so we'd have to expect some puppy-ish behavior till then. This means we only have one more day of bad behavior. Right? Right?
Well, she turned two. She hasn't eaten anything bad for a whole week. Guess I won't be posting here anymore except to shake my head over all the bad dogs who eat things they're not supposed to shake head . Tsk, tsk Smilie

First slip-up as a good 2-year-old: Helped herself to a bowl of unshelled nuts on a low shelf. Caught her cracking them open with her teeth. Bad dog,but it was kind of cute Smilie
