Squeaky tennis balls

Quick question. Are Kong squeaky tennis balls the best invention ever or the bane or your existence? Having heard one squeak starting at 5:45 this morning, I'm at highly annoying. But...oh boy Becca LOVES them.

Oh boy, I bet Ellie and Yuki would have a blast squeaking one of those at all hours! XD Unfortunately, Ellie (aka "The Great Destroyer") feels the need to tear/shred/destroy everything that is soft and/or fuzzy, so we don't buy soft toys or balls with fuzz on them. The one exception is the Tuffy frisbee. ;)

Mine love them lol. Although Henry has a habit of rolling on his back and just laying there...squeaking...and squeaking...and squeaking...

I wish Ace were more like a "normal dog" and liked tennis balls as much as everyone else. I have three Kong squeakies, all in nearly pristine condition after six months of having Ace. :(

If Ellie lived near by, she'd fix those tennis balls for you. And by "fix" I mean destroy. ;)

Gladly I'd let her! These are pretty much going to the toy graveyard, along with everything else in the house. At least I don't need to spend money replacing them. :D

Lucy loves to play fetch with those tennis balls and the squeaker is great for getting her attention, but as far as squeakers in the house, she goes for the cheaper footballs, and soccer balls--they might even be a petco brand. Despite her penchant for destroying most of her toys, she just gnaws on these, squeaking and chewing on them until she pops the squeaker silencing them forever. She sings to the squeaker, too. Most of the time she begins playing with them when she wants my attention (often in competition with the cats).

The squeaking gets old real fast. I just give basic balls to my two. Winnie likes to shred them and Belle love to plat catch. So we keep amused most of the time. Only thing that has got their goat is a basketball sized kids play ball. They will not go near it.

Alex loves the squeakers. She could play with them for hours on end ... which is adorable, because she herself is a squeaker! She doesn't bark. She single-handedly sets back the dog feminist movement fifty years. All she does is squeak. :)

ha ha! Snickers has developed a squeaky bark lately. She's like a squealing teenager when she is excited, jumping up and down and yipping. Definitely not going to be at the dog feminist rally!
