Egg Babies

Cupcake's new favorite toy is Kyjen's Egg Babies.  They're little squishy egg squeaker balls that come out of an animal's belly.  You pick the animal.  I got the platypus, but honestly Cupcake could care less about the platypus, and her face is so flat she can barely get the eggs out of the belly so I have to do it for her.  But once out, she LOVES these egg babies.  She is now officially an egg baby hoarder.  She tries to fit 2 in her mouth but fails.  She'll go and collect them all and put them in a little pile and then sit and look at them with her tongue hanging out.  And she is constantly driving me nuts rolling these things up under furniture, so I ordered replacement eggs for cheap on Amazon and now she has like 15. They're all over my house and the squeaking is driving me bonkers, but she couldn't be happier.

Awwww

She's adorable! Jack likes things like that. He never took to the jolly ball because he can't fit the whole thing in his mouth. His new obsession are these giant tennis balls from Petsmart. How sturdy are these eggs? Jack loves his stuffed animals too but they don't last long.

We have 2 balls Gizmo is obsessed with -

On is the giant tennis ball, that sounds like what Jack has, the other is a Green rubberish ball, that you can put treats in, the same size of the large tennis ball. We dont put treats in it, cause its her favorite ball...   It rolls and it has enough bounce to it without being too dangerous

Ahhh FOUND IT !    the EVERLASTING Funball !   http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3207021&lmdn=Price

I will have to try this...

...everlasting fun ball.  I got her this blue ball that talks but ended up hiding it because it annoyed me so much.  It could detect the slightest vibration from your footsteps and would instantly start yelling, "YEAH BABY YEAH!"

Sounds great

We might have to check into that one. My husband just cleaned out his sock drawer so we took an empty water bottle and shoved it in there. Jack is having a blast with it. He destroys everything pretty quickly so we are trying to come up with cheap alternatives or things that will last.

Pretty sturdy so far!

She hasn't destroyed them.  Yet.  She's had them for about 2 months and constantly chews on them.  She's 8 months old...  But she's got sharp little devil teefs and hasn't broken the lining.

I'm not gonna lie, that is

I'm not gonna lie, that is the weirdest concept for a dog toy... "Here doggy, pull the eggs out of my butt and squeak em!" I watched the video and that dog wasn't anywhere near as destructive as mine though:) Anyone test these things out on a dog that likes to rip and tear? My GSD loves plushies that squeak but I've yet to find one he didn't eventually tear through.
