Cute Dog Chew Toy

Ran into a blog specific for testing dog toys. Lab-Tested runs various stuff through a collection of Labrador Retrievers and sees what survives and what gets chewed to bits. This one caught my eye -- not for the dog's pleasure but for the humans: bq. The description for the Humunga Tongue says, "This is a heavy dog toy recommended for dogs over 40 pounds". What it should also say is "except for Labs, of course". bq. Starbuck loved the way it bounced, and would gladly carry it around, but wasn't quite sure why we laughed so hard that we cried whenever he did so. The inevitable chewing commenced, and soon the floor was littered with tiny orange shreds of rubber. When he separated the ball from the tongue, it became a choking risk and had to go in the trash. balls_humunga_tongue.jpg Posted by DaveH at October 9, 2004 10:51 PM
