Toy Box

Posted on by

This is what my sad, sad toy box has been looking like lately…

See that one lonely toy? Yeah, I’ve had that toy since I was a puppy – it’s in there for a reason – it tastes like plastic, and I don’t like it! And sadly, that was the ONLY toy I had left, well, until mom took me to the toy shop (aka Petsmart) on Saturday!

I picked out 3 toys, well I picked out way more than that, but mom only let me bring home the ones she thought I MIGHT not be able to destroy.

1. Owsley the Owl by Martha Stewart Pets from Petsmart 2. Rope Bone by Martha Stewart Pets from Pestmart 3. JW Pet Company Hol-ee Cuz toy from Petsmart

Of course I went straight to work trying to destroy my new toys.

My “cuz” toy lost his little legs about an hour later. It had to be done. After all, I didn’t want him walking off in the night now did I?

Owsley the Owl safely made it through the night, but by Monday evening I ate both his ears off. He gave me the “dirty owl eye” so I let him have it. And my Rope Bone….still in the packaging, because mom won’t let me have him yet! Whats the fun in getting new toys if your mom won’t let you destroy them anyway. jeesh.

So, what about you? Know of any TOTALLY indestructible dog toys? I bet I could still kill it. Anyone bury their toys instead of destroying them? I’ve tried that too, but it’s just not as fun as the kill.

Friday Fetch: The Doggie Bag

Posted on by

The other day mom visited Petco without me. I know the horror! But at least she didn’t come back empty handed. And even though she didn’t buy me EVERYTHING I wanted, she did come back with the scoop on some new dog-gone great dog toys.

One of those items is The Doggie Bag. A new product from Hyper Pet. It’s a wiggling, barking, bag of fun! Their website boasts that it’s the perfect toy for hyper dogs.

Hyper or not, their fun promo video (see below) made me want to give it a try myself! The fact that it had a couple of cute little long haired Dachshunds in it may have helped a little too. So maybe if I promise to be really good next time mom’s at petco she’ll pick me up a doggie bag.

You can fetch The Doggie Bag at Petco (selection may vary at different stores) and on Amazon for $17.

Easter Treats

Posted on by

Well my Easter plan worked, because the Easter Bunny definitely visited my house!

Mom made me wait to open my Easter basket until after we went to the farm & fed all the ponies. As you can imagine by that point I could hardly contain my excitement! So when I finally got my paws on those presents he left for me – I went a little nuts.

Oh Boy!

Immediately I took cover under the bushes in my yard, because I knew Trooper would want to play with my new toys.

 

As you can see he found me.

But that’s ok, because Trooper’s gonna have this look on his face when I get even!….

hehe.

Friday Fetch: Bubbles!

Posted on by

Seriously…these are some AWESOME Bubbles! It’s the BUBBLE BUDDY!

Bacon scented bubbles for dogs? Now what’s better than that? (well aside from the BBQ Chicken & Peanut Butter scents) I seriously hope Santa had room for this in my stocking this year. You hear that Santa? I hope it’s not too late!!

Maybe if you were good this year you can get a bubble buddy too….or you could just buy your own here from Barker & Meowsky.

And if the “Bubble Buddy” is anything like the Bubble Buddy from SpongeBob Squarepants…….that would be fantastic!

Happy Christmas Eve!
