Hi Hannnah,
GDB gave us toys for our dogs before graduating. We got to test them
out to see what our dogs liked best, and Honestly, Anise never liked
the goughnut. However, she does love all the kong toys, and nylabones.
All the Kong toys have stayed in great shape. As for the nylabone,
Anise is on her second one since I got her. Those do get in bad shape
quickly. I have learned not to give her the nylabones when she is
unsupervised, and once the bone seems to have splintery ends I throw
it away. How big was the bone you bought her? It might have been too
small. I have learned to buy Anise toys that are bigger than what is
recommended. Hope Princess is doing well. Please give her a hug for
me.
Juanita And Anise
