Tough Toys for Terriers

My friend Jenny has a Glen of Imal Terrier, named Michael Finnegan. You may not be familiar with this breed...more on that later.

It seems Finnegan, as he's called for short (and he's short), is a destroyer of toys (within 5 minutes, according to Jen.) Probably nothing new for most terriers. Jenny sent me a note with a recommendation for toys that stand up to Finnegan's assaults.

Ruffians, from JW Pet's Tough by Nature line are "made of really tough rubber and are perfectly designed to throw (hold the bear or chicken by the neck and wing it!), according to Jen.

"I personally like the chicken better, because I like to say “Finn…get your chicken!” Bad part about the chicken design – he chewed the legs off. It’s still in working condition, however. The bear is 100% in tact even after weeks of play."

I found them available at Pet Discounters.

Here's a picture of Finnegan. Glen of Imals are a very old breed that is very new to the American Kennel Club (AKC). They have short legs, giant heads and long bodies and they are much more mellow than most terriers. Except for Finn. He's a wild man!

Thanks for the recommendation on durable toys. As the furmom to two Weims, one Beagle and a coonhound I can use all the help I can get finding almost indestructable toys!
