LOL! Ms. K, don't be skeptical. We got one of those non-stuffies for Stella at Petco or Petsmart (I can't remember which). We call it her 'roadkill'. She LOVES it! I think her roadkill is a squirrel and she drags that thing around and shakes it. It's really funny. I'll try to get a pic or video of her killin' it for the 403rd time and post it.
THANKS for my 5 AM chuckle!! If we had this in our house, it would be a dead critter!! I don't think there has been a soft toy made yet that could withstand the collaborative damage a couple in our crew could cause! If there is, I'd love to know about it!
I saw that commercial too, and I thought to myself, just because it doesn't have stuffing in it, doesn't mean that they won't get torn apart just like any other toy....but who knows...
Tootie sez an old sock that smells like her mama is just fine for her. That and her ring toss toy bought at Dollar Tree. And since I propped Dear Husband's guitar case in front of the footboard on our bed, she doesn't chew on it anymore!
infomercials are always soo annoying....but from my perspective i'd give these little critters a try...benny and richard like to destroy toys, so i have stopped buying the big plush, golden retriever loving toys! for ten bucks i'd buy these! xoxo
We got Byron a similar one for Christmas and in the five minutes I left the room Christmas morning to start breakfast, he ate it, whole! Not a trace left behind. I watched the backyard for days for it to 're-appear' and finally gave up thinking I must have missed it in the snow. Twenty days after Christmas day, surprise! He threw it up, still whole. We are very lucky nothing more serious happened and Byron is back to only having toys with supervision.
Yep, Nala has a couple of these. She likes them but I don't think they could withstand a doggie wanting to rip them apart...stuffing or not. Nala just doesn't rip things up anymore. She's matured. ;) I used to have to sew things up for her all the time but it's not an issue now.
When are 2 leggers gonna figger out that indestructible is a major marketing term? It means absolutely the same thing as "hand over the cash and you won't get hurt" It's also spelled RIP-OFF.
My PUs have learned that there is no such thing as indestructible, at least when I am involved.
I BOL when I saw this! I don't destroy them anymore but as a youngster I would destroy anything Mom brought home. She even brought home things for big tough dogs and I still managed to destroy them! Snuggles, Twix
Hey! Glad you liked my momma's hat! She usually wears totally dorky stuff. She got that one at the Land's End store at Sears (but I bet they have it online). She says it is pretty warm too and has a cool visor to keep the sun out. She got size S/M because it is kind of stretchy.
I've never seen those before. I can't imagine a toy that Holly can't chew up since she chewed the couch apart as a puppy! (Just one entire cushion..that's all..along with the pillow).
We don't have any crazy critters of that kind around here, but if we did, Mom says she is sure at least one of us would want to get that squeaker OUT!!!
I have something very similar to that called Skinzzz or something.. it's basically a stuffie without the stuffing, and the squeakers broke super fast. Marge still likes to shake it around sometimes, but I don't really recommend them to anyone.
Farley has a stuff-less stuffie, and it is still in once piece. But he's usually pretty gentle with his stuffies. He still has one from when he was a baby :)
hmmmnnn. We have such a Critter - a skunk one - and Sammie has never been interested in it!!! But then again, lately, she like nothing more than her kong on a rope, natch, and her nylabone. She used to play with squeaker toys, but is totally less interested in toys these days. I wonder if I should be worried? Hugs xo Sammie and mom
We got a non stuffed stuffie from Mitch and Maggie in our Christmas pressie package and Jeter just LOVES it! I think I will only buy non stuffed stuffies from now on. Oh who am I kidding, I buy any cute toy, stuffed or not.

I have tried this: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=18869 which looks an awful lot like it but sells for $6.99. Moose really loved it, he surgically removed the sqeaker then played with the pelt for awhile. I suppose that one could be made of stronger fabric but since Moose can chew through pressurized cans I don't see it stopping him! I have searched for indestructible toys for moose but it turns out that if he can't tear it up it is not fun for him! His favorites are the bungee toys so he can tug with them. He will desqueak them but they still work and will live on as mute critters for months and months!
I taught primary school for 27 years, and loved every minute of it. I am now enjoying retirement on 30+ acres in the north Georgia mountains with my husband and Labrador Retrievers.
When we aren't hanging out in the woods, we enjoy traveling in our RV w/ the dogs. One of our favorite destinations is the Pacific Northwest, especially the Oregon and Washington coasts.
My parents are deceased, I am an only child and have no children; therefore, my husband and dogs are my family.
My blog and blogging friends have taken the place of my classroom and students.
You could say, I've gone from SCHOOL DAYS to DOG DAZE.

Ah we have not had a crazy critter, we have had other indestructible toys. It becomes a challenge, WE WIN

Hi Ms. K and pups.....now crazy critters for Madi...she is crazy enough on her own.
Madi and Mom
Hey! We had one of those. PeeWee ate it's belly and totally pooped out a HUGE piece of fabric. Sigh.
Slobbers,

I played the video. Raider heard the squeaky sound and was begging me to get one for him!
I would really love to find a non-destructible toy for "JAWS"!
His teddy bear has been re-sewn so many times I've lost track!
Hugs, Kath
Do they make wee ones for Billy's size? He is not destructive any way. Though a few toys in the past have lost their squeak from sharp little teeth.
Honestly, I only enjoyed the first 6 seconds of this, the part where they unstuffy the creature. Who needs something durable? Bo-ring!
Twink!

Haven't heard of these---but if they do work with puppies and their 'chewing'--maybe they will be worth getting...
The sun is out here today. YEAH!!!
Hugs,
Betsy
HA! I didn't see a lab in that whole commercial. Evidently, they don't know what true destructive power is! :)

Woofs and indestructible slobbers,

I have something very similar to that called Skinzzz or something.. it's basically a stuffie without the stuffing, and the squeakers broke super fast. Marge still likes to shake it around sometimes, but I don't really recommend them to anyone.
We gave one like that as a present to a friend beagle and she loves it more than anything! Carries it around everywhere.
love & wags,
River

I don't have any Crazy Critters, but I think I would destroy it really fast! :)
Mochi
We don't have one but stuffing or not, Samantha will still destroy it. She could tear it apart!
I have tried this: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=18869
which looks an awful lot like it but sells for $6.99.
Moose really loved it, he surgically removed the sqeaker then played with the pelt for awhile. I suppose that one could be made of stronger fabric but since Moose can chew through pressurized cans I don't see it stopping him! I have searched for indestructible toys for moose but it turns out that if he can't tear it up it is not fun for him! His favorites are the bungee toys so he can tug with them. He will desqueak them but they still work and will live on as mute critters for months and months!
