FishinBC Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Briar's is any ball or round shaped toy. Rob Dog's is his cat - Naughty Nadia. He picked her out all by himself when we went to adopted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addysdaddy Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Kit, I have actually taught Addy to "Tidy up" after herself when we are done playing. She has about 50 tennis balls that she loves to chase all over the house. So I started with those. When we are done I point to her toy basket and tell her "tidy up" and she starts picking up the balls and dropping them in. We have gone on to other toys as well. It works to an extent. I wish I could just tell her once and she would pick them all up. But she is so ADD she grabs at every ball around her trying to get them all at the same time before she stettles on one. This could start carrying over to her stuffing from toys as well. I haven't tried it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit Posted March 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Great idea, love the command "tidy up"! Kits newest favorite toy, my Lacoste socks, no she could not pick out any of my old icky socks, she had to pick my favorite new socks. I know it's weird, but I like socks, especially ones with cute alligators! ( Im from the 80's generation...) Kari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleysDad Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 How funny, I come here to ask about this very topic and find that pretty much every other BC owner is in the same boat as me. Harley's favorite toys are stuffed animals. Some last a few hours before all the stuffing is removed, some only last minutes. He then carries the carcass around for a while and gradually rips it apart and eats it (if I let him). Tennis balls get immediately defuzzed. Frisbees get destroyed chunk by chunk Kongs haven't been destroyed but they usually spend long periods of time lost behind furniture. He has 3, only 1 of which I know its wherabouts. What bothers me about this is he also stripped most of the wiring out of my electric blankeet. He put a hole in my down comfortor (now that was a mess). I replaced the comfortor and just discovered where he has chewed a hole in the corner of it (these things are not cheap). At just shy of 1 year he has gone back to the crate when I am not home or at night. I'm afraid that letting him have toys he can tear up is making him believe he can tear up anything of mine that is somehow stuffed as well. He knows better because he won't let me catch him chewing anything of mine so its hard to discipline him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dal & Mad's Mom Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Hey I found a pic of the 8.00 fish only it cost 13 here http://www.dogtoys.com/fishyanker.html I bought Dal a jolly ball and that was played with for a while. I was taken to a warehouse that takes returns/demo's from a major pet supplier bought kongs, and good fleece toys and got the cutest chew man for the planned pup it's the size of my palm.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucieluv Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 I solved the ripping the stuffing out of toys problems by buying the hide-and-seek toys. Although, it created another problem. My dogs like the toys inside the toys more. So, I ordered a case of refills for them to play with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
