My wife’s dog just loves this toy bird. She sits and whines till I get home to play with it with me.

It has a rubber cord neck. I put my thumb in a hole in its head and point it like it was my bow arm. Then I grab its tail and draw it like it was my string hand. It shoots like a bow and the bird flies pretty fast and up to 70’.

bjrogg:
Problem is it doesn’t last long before the outside is chewed up and the inside starts coming out. Worst yet she starts trying to eat the inside and that’s not a good thing.

I was hemming up a pair of overalls and I did some work on the bird. The head was almost ripped off. I’m sure it would have come off the next shoot.

I should have done more but I got it flyable again.

bjrogg:
She was so happy. But I know it wouldn’t last long. I’ve been trying to get her to retrieve it and starting to have some success. Anyone know of a toy like this that would be more durable and she would still like?

Check out Kong Brand Dog toys. Dogs can't hurt 'Em. Bob

bjrogg:
Thanks Bob. I looked on my phone.

I see they have indestructible toys but I didn’t see anything that was like this one.

She has some of those other toys, but she just goes crazy over this one. It’s a nerf dog toy and she loves how it flies and the feel of it too.

I’m trying to teach her not to tear it up. She doesn’t exactly have a soft mouth, but if she does just chew most of the time it doesn’t hurt it to much. Once it starts getting loose material then she wants to tear it up. Then it takes a beating.

Really starting to have fun with this pup. She is almost a year old now. She is a bit of a knucklehead, but so am I and we get along pretty good.

I swear she must be part goat. She isn’t afraid to climb on anything and is very agile. She loves outdoors and other dogs and people. She goes crazy over squirrels.

She was my daughters first, but she made too much noise at her apartment with all the squirrels around there. My daughter really wanted a chihuahua and she found one for herself. My wife and I were already attached to Roxy so we got her.

She’s a very smart, energetic, agile pup. She seems to have a good nose and eyes. She is a little stubborn and praise definitely works better on her than discipline.

I would like to see if I can train her to hunt. I never really had a hunting dog before and don’t really know how to train one. I think this little girl has potential though
