What kinds of toys does your dogs play with?

We have a 7 year old shih tzu dog and he loves to play with stuffed bears. Last night he chew the ear off so had to go to town today to find him another bear. I found one! He loves bears. He carries them in the house. He licks on the bear as he is giving them a bath. so cute

Felix is his name and I tell him to go find bear and he brings his stuffed bear back to me. He is spoiled.

I have a bulldog-boxer mix and she plays with everything. She has a stuffed bear (named Beary of course). We tell her to find Beary and she searches throughout the house and comes back with him. She also has a duck (headless now because she got too carried away with playing) and a stuffed raccoon toy.

She also plays with empty toilet paper and towel rolls. And everytime she eats, she plays with her kibble. Very funny to watch.

My Tundra, a husky mix, plays with stuffed animals. His favorites are the red ones! He chews out hard eyes because when he shakes them, the hard eyes hurt him! He tosses them up in the air and then shakes the daylights out of them!

Tundra also plays his own version of "Hacky-Sack". He carefully places an object on his left front paw, flips the object, and catches it in his mouth before it hits the ground. He will find a leaf, or nut, or any found object to play with like this and will busy himself for an hour or so. He does this inside or outside! He can really shake the house when he gets going!

My little rat terrier, Suzie, doesn't play! She was found in a junk yard and taken in by an older lady, so I don't know if she ever played. She does a good cuddle though!

Rolled up socks or some "rope" made out of leftover polar fleece.

Dogs are so funny with their toys. Our dog has what used to be a stuffed bear (Fuzzy). She chewed all the stuffing out and still plays with it. She also LOVES squeaky toys...and tennis balls.

My dogs like to play with anything that has the noise maker in it.
When they put a hold in the toy I pick it up put it awy until they run out. Then I reswe all the torn animals anf put in new sound pieces. and there happy as a clam. not they can start all over agin tarying them up.

Any kind of stuffy is a toy in our house. :) Gizmo and Kandi love them all. They also like any kind of small ball or rope for tug-of-war.

We need to see a photo of him with his bear. What's his name?

Our dogs love the empty coke bottles, and the crunchy sound they make, and the lab ALWAYS has a ball!
