Good Boy and Tough Toys

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Haley got a new stuffie on his Gotcha Day (1/8/2014). It was a very "tough" toy. Here are the remains:

Time to bury this one.

He had so much fun with the stuffie, as you can see, not only dissecting it but parading around with it and shaking it while growling that I just had to get him a new one. It arrived yesterday.

While Haley was outside I took the tags off it and placed it on the floor under the kitchen table. Haley came inside later and checked it out but left it alone. He did this occasionally for a couple of hours. After all it hadn't been "given" to him so it wasn't "his". Finally I did give it to him.

After an hour of "loving" the stuffie the comb was off the head and the "brains" revealed.

This tough toy will not last long either.

For all of you who are concerned, Haley is supervised and does not eat the dismembered parts. (Knock on wood.)

We have the same scenario here. I bought a stuffed toy recently. Luca had it totally torn part in under 10 minutes and the remains were trashed shortly after. But he had a good time : ) it sure looks like Haley did.

F, I tried to reply to you but it ended up down the page, blame it on my tablet. : )

Stuffies don't stand a chance with Mr. Haley, lol! 

I love the photos! His coat and coloring are so much like JD's! 

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Thanks Karen. Sometimes I see a picture in the DK slide show and at first wonder "when did I shoot that picture" then realize that it's JD. lol

[Stephanie and Ragley]

Aw poor rooster and dinosaur! RIP sweet toys! Too funny. Fortunately, Ragley is a stuffed toy lover on the other end of the spectrum- she loves to carry them around and snuggle them. For now. I am hoping she never discovers that there is magical stuffing contained inside and hopefully that will keep her from ripping into them! 

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Haley use to treat his stuffies gently but when he was about nine months old he turned into a destroyer.  Hope Ragley continues to be gentle with them.

[Julie and Max]

Max has "killed" every stuffed toy he's ever received. :(

We have one with no stuffing that does okay and on with a tennis ball that is still alive!

It does look like Haley had a great time with her poor poor stuffies though!

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Boys! 

[Miss Ellie]

Ellie use to snuggle and carry hers around...but has recently taken to eating them...so stuffies have gone away for a while...we will revisit once she turns a year old...love the photos of Haley...he is so darn cute:)

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

My DH thinks it has to do with prey and what to do with it after the kill. :(

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

ROTFL....Vern does the same things to his toys. I know the dinosaur toy is supposed to be a tough one and that is one of Vern's favorites, but it ends up looking just like the one Haley destroyed. Haley looks so content and I imagine dismembering stuffies is hard work :) Looks like it wore poor Haley out :) Very funny!

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

I guess Haley and Vern have at least two things in common; toy destroyer and roller.  : )
