When we first opened, one of the things we kept hearing over and over again was that people had dogs who liked to destroy toys. Our dogs do it too - Lucky will work quietly and methodically until she's taken the eyes, or nose, or squeaker, off of any toy we give her. You should see some of the Frankenstein-esque toys we have around the house - toy carcasses tied together to squeeze every last bit of fun out of them possible.
We've been just as interested in finding toys that are sturdy, and can withstand even the most determined destructive dogs. So we've been really excited to discover Tuffie Toys - they're among the most durable toys we've ever come across. They're made from a layer of soft fleece, two layers of nylon, and a layer of PVC. They're assembled with seven seams, and then a layer of nylon coats the stitching. The squeakers are embedded in a safety pocket, nice for those dogs who zero in on the squeaker and just won't let it go. In the store we've been calling them "Tiger Toys" since the company did some of their market testing on Tigers in zoos - and even they couldn't destroy these toys!
Well, when we heard that even a tiger couldn't destroy the toys, we decided that we had to put them to the test ourselves. We all remember how sharp puppy teeth are? So we gave Millie, our official toy tester, one of the octopuses and let her have at it. Stop in and see the results - the toy still looks like new, and Millie was exhausted. Right now we've got all of these toys featured in our window, so give them a peak (or a squeak) and see what you think. So far we've been very pleased with their longevity (and that they tire Millie out...)
