so... whats the issue with the dog breaking the toy? I thought that was the purpose. I give my dog toys so he can break them. he loved destroying stuffed animals.
I had a Shitzu/Yorkie mix that treated all all her toys, ESPECIALLY the squeaky ones as her puppies. So if you squeaked it she'd get mad at you, take the toy from you, and go comfort it.
my friend had a pointer dog, he broke his tail by wagging it too hard against a wall and had to be cut off. he never stopped wagging his ass from side to side tho. a very aggressive side twerk
You could give our pup a cast iron skillet and he'd find a way to shred it. We get the cheapest stuffed toys (~$2) to satisfy his destruction urge. Then the one brand of toy he doesn't destroy is kevlar-lined.
I save the cardboard box any time I have a package delivered. Toss a couple treats in, tape it back up, and let her rip it to shreds. It doesn't take her long to shred it, but it does seem to satisfy her destructive urges for a bit.
Hola. All my Labrador's are soft mouthed and love to carry, not destroy, but oh man, the Border Collies ... I found the best well made stuffies that will get destroyed are the Build A Bears at your local Goodwill/Salvage Army etc. They are well made and cost $1-2 USD. Toss them in the wash with bio detergent and good to go. Still get ripped apart and avoid the squeakers, but better than your shoes and furniture.
Teach him the word destroy, then give him a cardboard box. Ask him if he wants to destroy something, then throw him the box. It's a lot safer than dog toys, and cheaper than free.
I bought an "indestructible" toy for my first weim. Expensive but it had a replacement guarantee. It was a chunk of fire hose with a squeaker. 6 min. So I sent off for a new one. Same result. Sent off for another. By the 3rd or 4th they asked for proof, so I took a video of her destroying a new one in a record 4 min. They finally sent me a dozen and a note that they would not be sending me any more replacements

He's going to rip himself apart with that level of wag

And if he ripped it apart? I get him another one.

Ugh indeed. Love ABBA… why this trend of speeding things up?!?

I only wish I had seen your comment earlier. That was brutal.

Sometimes doggos need something to help their overstimulated brains. So happy they love their carrot 🥕

My big black lab did this too. Only time he'd bark is if you were hurting his toys.

UGGGHHHHHHHHH I MISS MY DOGGIESSS. Nothing is wrong with them, they are just at home and I am not

I had a lab that loved her stuffies. My Aussie on the other hand loves them too, but they don't last the night.

That's a shit reason not to give stuffed toys and whoever said it doesn't understand dogs.

I buy all my dog toys at homegoods. Who can afford $20 for one toy at Petsmart or Petco? Ugh

Why on earth would you want to cure it?
shiasurasa12
Dogs can wag so hard they sprain their own tails. Wigglebutt is fine until it turns into Turbo Wigglebutt in which case it can be injurious.

Sometimes they can cause it.

To match the speed of the wag.

is his name "Paint Mixer"?
ThatBobbersonBoy
Hot take: dog toys are meant to be enjoyed by the dog. If they want to tear it apart, let them.

Do mute!

My heart. His emotional support carrot! And I don’t care if he rips them apart. Why wouldn’t you make them happy?
imgurianitarian
I would buy him a million of them.

Yeah you can get like 10 minutes out of a good one. Antlers work well though

Yep, can't have them shredding the game while retrieving it after all.
