I don't know if any of you have this "problem" but I'm pretty sure its not uncommon.
So Brownee goes through toys like nothing. I've bought him plastic ones in which he'll slowly chew them apart. Fabic ones could be gone from hours to maybe a couple days. I have gotten him some toys from the 99 cent stores and he's destroyed them too. I don't mind buying him tons of toys but do you guys know of any toys that will last a decent amount of time? |

what a cute puppy, a Kong with the treat in it is the only thing I have found that Ivy can not destroy or kill. Bully sticks last a while as well. |

| Welcome to you and Brownee! He's a handsome little guy! I can't add much to what has already been suggested. My Button adores her puppy Kong. Sometimes I stuff it with peanut butter and when I do, my rescue, Zipper gets interested. Another favorite toy is a 15" x 2" strip for ordinary fleece material (scrap I had) with a single knot tied in the middle. It's great for tossing, harms no furniture, and the girls LOVE playing tug of war with it. You know what they say, the best toys are often the "free" ones. When it gets dirty, I just toss it in the laundry with my towels. Tough Button used to be real bad about chewing up rags and fabric items, at age 4, she has not destructively chewed this rag up EVER. |

| This is a touchy subject with me. Shadow seems like to have reverted to a puppy again... although he will be 2 in November. He is chewing stuff like crazy. His kong was a great toy until it dissappeared. I have to get him another one. He does have a nylabone which is a good sendm however he wants to chew shoes now. I am still at my friend's house and the room I am in doesn't hava a closet... Shadow doesn't chew my shoes.. just everybody elses. All I can say is that I do agree with the above. Kong and nylabones... they are the only thing that are ratty-proof. |

Welcome! Brownee sure is a cutie-pie. As stated a Kong toy is the way to go. The only other toy that Marley has not destroyed is a tennis ball from the Tractor Supply Store. Other tennis balls are destroyed in about 5 minutes. but the ones from TS have lasted several months. |
