A terrible thing has happened in the Hoppy household.... Henry has finally destroyed his last toy
crazy.gif


It was a rubber chicken with a squeaky that cost a few quid and has lasted since I got Henry... this evening he was playing with him and I noticed he was chewing at its feet with some gusto, so took it off him to have a look and realised that he had almost chewed its toe off

Mr Squeaky Chicken has now been taken away and Henry looks like I have just stolen all his Christmas and birthday presents

He keeps lookig for him, then running back to me to see if I have found him yet

Please join me in raising a glass to Mr Squeaky Chicken - you served us well.

RIP Mr Squeaky Chicken.

I have just bought some toys for Harvey. So far we have a fluffy duck (ooo-er that's my slang for a naughty word too!), a fluffy pheasant, a cuddly floppy fluffy dog, a Kong Wubba and a Kong mini bone.

I wonder how long that lot will last?
 
When we first got Otto we bought him a fluffy duck, a fluffy pheasant and a blue cordouroy dog. All are still alive and well, although the birds did suffer from gangrene and had to have their feet amputated, and the dog made the mistake of insulting Otto's mum, so had his nose chewed off, but they patched up fine and are still with us

However the more recently bought toys had limbs savagely torn off

mainly because they were shoddily made cak that fell apart when Otto looked at them funny.

He is the only dog I know that just doesn't chew his teddies, occasionally he will pull something off, but never actually chew. Now if it is rubber or plastic and bone shaped, he will gnaw to his hearts content.

RIP Squeaky Chicken

(Oh, and I was going to PM you but can't be bothered now, the PM fandango was a complete fabrication. 'Twas as suspected, the titles were visable but not the content, apart from of couple of exceptions!)
 
Henmeister - quel surprise

Thanks for letting me know though - I had nothing more inflammatory than a phone number in mine but I would have still felt responsible if eejits had got hold of it!

I'm afraid Mr Fluffy Duck lost a foot early on, and since I never found it I believe Henry ate it

His Kong Wubba lasted about 2 weeks as well, and Mr Grunty Piggy made it about a month

RIP Mr Squeaky chicken.
Skye, in particular sends her condolences as this toy is her absolute favourite of all her toys. Skye says (or should I say--barks) "My deepest sympathy to Henry at the loss of his toy. Please tell his Mum to go get another PDQ"
 
RIP Mr Squeaky chicken. Buffy too sends her condolences to Henry. She had a much loved Mr Squeaky chicken who was desqueaked early in his life but livedmany a year. Like you I suddenly discovered he was missing part of a limb and he had to be dispatched.There must be a whole family of them in squeaky chicken heaven.

One of our Border Terriers has phantom pregnancies and 'adopts' a soft toy to baby. This toy is carried around and loved until the phantom is over - and then it has the stuffing ripped out of it

A very sad RIP to all squeaky chickens/teddies etc that have passed from our lives!

I'd like to add "Thyme-y Tim" to the list - an unimaginatively named thyme plant bought to replace "Basil" the basil plant who was cruelly munched by a spangle
mad.gif
"Thyme-y Tim" has, alas, suffered the same fate - for a dog who is not really one for stealing food, she's done rather well over the last few weeks. Poo this morning is...fragrant, to say the least!
