I know that Snoopy would have eaten off the pompoms and the string tie within a half hour!

It wouldn't last 15 minutes with my two! They destroy stuffies so quickly that I don't even bother anymore.....they have plenty of other toys that last more than a few minutes after I bring them home! Laughing

About 5 minutes. My older dog Ben usually destroys anything not made from galvanised steel (ok, really strong plastic) in under half an hour so this would last about three minutes.

My little ones are actually really good with stuffed toys. We still have stuffed candy cames from last Christmas. We have only had to throw out two of the toys we bought them last year, and that was only because one of our fosters decided to shred them. Laughing

Champ and Princess don't really play with stuffed toys. They prefer nylabones and kongs.

I actually bought something like that from them about a month ago and it lasted maybe 20 minutes in my house. Bacardi is in a search and destroy phase with stuffed animals. He only destroys the really soft latex toys but will demolish the stuffed ones in no time flat. I buy toys by the box loads from petedge and then dole them out a few at a time. I try to limit the stuffed ones to 1-2 per week. It is so disheartening to see my money go poof that quickly.

Piper and Jarod will not destroy the stuffed animals unless they get into a tugging game and then it happens on accident. Bacardi, actually goes for the kill on purpose.

Minutes and without a trace. Bozy's poo would be rather colorful. Wink

It would last a bit longer in my house, because Avi and Zarathustra would ignore it for a while, then one of them would bury it in the litter box. They are some really weird cats!

Alas, a long, long time. Sad Daisy's at the age (10) where the urge to play strikes seldom. We say it comes with the full moon. In her heyday, about a day or two!

I said over a month but just because after the initial 'playing with it period', it would end up under the couch and wouldn't get bothered with again until I realized it was missing and hunted it down.

It would last forever here.

Lucy chews or licks toy butts, but only for short periods of time.

She doesn't bother with the rest of the toy.

good question Ilana-not very long because either Buster would chew it up in 15 mins or Jenny would chew it up and they would both tear it up playing Laughing Laughing

How about an option for less than 5 minutes? Between the Lab, Beagle and Snoopy the wonder chewer it would be gone soooo fast! Though the kittens enjoy swatting the remains around Wink
