RiverStar-Aura Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 A lady that I do agility with put me on to these: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/like/301308342156?limghlpsr=true&hlpv=2&ops=true&viphx=1&hlpht=true&lpid=107 I just buy the cheapie ones from Woolworths in the mop aisle and it cost me about $6 although you can probably get them from the Reject Shop cheaper. Kirah loves tugging and killing them. Zeus not so much :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ness Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 We had a holee molee extreme which has basically been untouched for years - Kenz has since discovered its her new bestest toy for whatever reason . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentchild Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 This entire thread is enabler alert!!!!! So many toys, so little money.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suziwong66 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 The other popular option is to get a toy like the Holee Roller or Holee Molee and stuff it with fabric or similar. Then your dog can de stuff it over and over again. Norty Brown Dawg Wilbur loves his Holee Molee - he thought it was the best thing ever when i stuffed strips of fabric into it. I bought it to help him stop ripping the stuffing out of his softies; it worked a treat. He hasn't ripped the guts out of any of his stuffies since we got it.

Little Gifts Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) If you buy yourself some fleece fabric you can make long tug toys, ones with big knots in the middle, double ones, round ones and one of our faves which is like an octopus (it has an old ball or old stuffing for the head. You will often find fleece remnants in op shops too and it is extremely wide so you get loads of toys from it and it is quite durable. You should try and cut your fabric so that the stretch is sideways though or you will end up with very thin and long tug toys! Another fave in this house are fleece pom pom balls. It took me forever to work out how they were made (I have a secret recipe!) and of course they get destroyed quite quickly but the dogs love them so I still make them. I also now make something I call Kitty Bombs from fleece remnants (another secret recipe) that are very popular with the feline community. Who knew fleece fabric had so many uses! You can also make the same toys from cutting up old t-shirts. And we are another household with a Holee Roller/Molee that contains old stuffing and fleece remnants that works a treat for a destructo dog!

piper Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) The Kyjen invincible range is awesome :D Rory agrees ... some enabler on DOL introduced me to them .. Rory has a 6 squeaker python ... more roll eyes from Kirra. Yes they are great! Very durable for a plush toy! Kyjen make great stuff Piper we have them listed for $26.95 http://www.k9pro.com...nvincibles.html Oh no don't tell me that!!! Could do with a replacement for when the sections of the snake finally die.... And Tassie, no, no one on DOL would enable, never! LOL ETA: Just had a look Huski - they are the 6 squeaker 1. Mine is the ginormous 10 or 12 squeaker 1 - over 1.5m long (or was when it was in 1 piece) Edited September 19, 2014 by piper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I am aware, (at least according to their website) Kyjen don't make those any more - just the 6 and 3 squeaker models now! So stock up if you can find somewhere that still has the 12 squeakers in stock :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shame they got rid of the super long 1 - it is awesome for multiple dogs. It does get very loud though, lol I do love the look of the frog though...

Darcy&Zoe Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 The Kyjen invincible range is awesome :D I have to agree with this ... I started my ridgeback x at obedience this term and was told to bring in a toy for them to play with. So off I go and buy a $30 gorilla for him ... well it lasted less than 5 min and stuffing was blowing everywhere lol So I tried the invincible toys and they are still going strong :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgieB Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Reggie's absolute favourite toy is a Pogo Plush Raccoon They look like a normal soft toy but they have a rubber 'skeleton' that's similar to a hollee molee, instead of stuffing. They have two sizes. Reggie's is lasting really well. ???? http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0046ZRXZU?pc_redir=1408674205&robot_redir=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miss2 Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 I bought this one from Coles yesterday and I was NOT a hit. I think it’s because it’s not soft on the inside ( like a toy with stuffing would be) he squeaked it once, looked at me in disgust and dropped it lol Hopefully some of the others will be more successful lol little fussy turd!
