My Siberian Huskey is still going through his puppy stages and loves to play with squeak toys but he tears them up in less than half an hour? Are there any out there that you might have heard of or own that are better made and will last a little longer?

You should definately purchase the Big Mean Kitty toy!
I have a German Shepherd and she tears up toys in a flash! So when we bought her this last Christmas we were so thankful!
It squeaks and is made out of very tough fabric. It's been months now and she's only managed to tear a hole which she can't get the stuffing out of.
Go here to get one.

It's $30, but incredibly worth it! :]

I havn't found any. I found that kongs work the best or rubber chew toys. The string ones made a mess all over the house. I would stay away from anything that is like a stuffed animal. If anything my dog loved old socks that we didn't use. They last a good while. Try going to a pet store and look around.

The Kong toys are good and durable. I have two very large dogs that go through toys like food. I have tried them all, the Nyla bones are the best but are not squeak toys. I just keep buying the .99 cent squaky balls nothing else works and at least they are cheap.

Not that I have found!!!
My dog tears up the squeaky toys in about 10 minutes too!!! She likes the Kong toys and cannot destroy those in 10 minutes although they don't squeak!
I don't think there is a material that is pliable enough for them to chomp down to make the toy squeak AND be tough enough for them not to destroy.
So....we have to accept that we either let them squeak and destroy or not squeak at all!

I have not found any squeaky toys so far that my dog hasn't eaten in a few minutes, but I have heard of the Kong toys but again they don't squeak. My vet told me to try Nylabones-which come in different sizes and it takes them a while to chew up and are safe for the dogs.

There is only one brand of Squeky Toys that has survived my Carolina Dog (very, very aggressive chewer).... I believe the brand name is Booda.
Remi (my Carolina Dog) has a cow, a frog, and a ball all made by that company. I bought these when he was 9 months old & ripping thru every other toy. My vet recommended this brand & I found it at the local doggie-toy store (Pet Supplie Plus)
Remi was 4 this past June & the only "childhood" toys that have survived to see his adulthood are those 3.... and he still plays with them now :)
Also, in order to keep your Husky from chewing up all kinds of things, I recommend retreiver rolls. Remi used to go thru 2 a day. Now that his is older & more settled, he goes thru 1 a week.... it kept him out of alot of trouble when he was young

There is a line of soft toys out there called Combat Extreme. They are made of ballistic nylon. They are warrantied against chew damage "even if attacked by a pack of rabid wolves". I have a chew monster, and I purchased a couple of these for her. She did open the seam on one of them, and the company sent me a new toy.
Just type combat extreme dog toy into your search engine. Lots of places sell them.
Also, there are squeaky toys made of firehose material. My dog never did damage that one. Beware of cheap imitations on this toy, there are more fakes than there are real ones out there.
We also have Awful Mean Kitty. We have had this toy for a very long time, with no damage done.

No squeak toys. Anything able to withstand a dog's chewing will hurt it's teeth, the best you can hope for is sturdy enough to last a while.

I have found a couple companies that have great products that can withstand the chomp of a large dog.

PetAg latex toys are great and also the fleece toys from Penn Plax.

hey hi,
beleive it or not.. KONG is a good mfg. of toys for dogs...
yes i highly reccommend that you put somthing like peanut butter or some type of filler when in use. Dogs litterlly go crazy for the toy. and they are industrutable. i have a Pitbull and Doberman, they can break the red kong... they are still trying to tear apart the Black Kong......it's the strongest....
