Hide a Squirrel

Price: $33.50
Purchased from: Top Dogs website
This toy has lasted: 5 months so far

After drinking a few wines one Saturday night I decided to google 'dog toys' and after awhile stumbled upon the website of Top Dogs (an Australian site).

I ordered the 'Hide a squirrel' toy and it arrived within a week and although it was a plush toy and so bound to be destroyed in a few days, I was curious to see if Dougal would like it.

He did (no surprises, he's a bit of a toy-floozy, lets face it!) and you can see his reaction on video here.

As you can see, it was a great success although admittedly we do hide this 'hide a squirrel' toy away and only let D play with it supervised as he does seem intent on eating the stuffing out of the squeaky squirrels ;)

An explanation...

OK, so I've been a dog owner for about a year now and during this time I have become what my boyfriend describes as "dog-crazy". I blame my parents for not letting me have a dog as a kid as at the ripe old age of 30 I've suddenly encountered this nutty bundle of joy and energy that is always happy to see me. Perhaps its just that I love the extra attention, but either way, our dog Dougal is always entertaining (the photo to the right is him after encountering the other family dogs for the first time on Xmas day).

Anyway, as I said, since becoming a dog owner I have discovered the hundreds of different dog toys and accessories that are available in Australia and online and thought that I would do a bit of a 'toy review' blog until I got bored.
