Hey! Maybe your self-preservation instinct is kicking in. Good.

Its funny how some toys seem to get special treatment. Erwin has football
that he has had for months now that looking at it, I wouldn't have guessed
would last over about 5 minutes. Its soft thin plastic. One good chomp
should take it out, but so far...nothing, and its by far his favorite toy.
I never would have thought to buy it for him, but he stole it from another
dog down at the park. I tried to find the owners (I'd seen them earlier,
they were three little kids with a 'teenage' golden retriever), but they
were no where to be seen.

I have yet to find a ball that Gretchen cannot pop. She doesn't like the
solid ones.
She even popped my basketball!

Kongs are about the only thing my crew can't destroy either. Anything else
is ripped to shreds within an hour, usually. I have found a couple things
that took overnight to destroy, but that is their limit.

Yea, that's what I meant by the solid ones. She just doesn't seem to like
it.
