Corgi's are strong...what toys do you own that your dog does not destroy?

Hellooo! I am just looking for some ideas on this subject. My boyfriend thinks I am crazy because I have probably spent $250.00 on dog toys in the last 7 months for our maggie. I want things to keep her busy when we cannot play with her. Her favorite toys are balls, but not for when she plays by herself. We finally found a good, strong, rubber tug toy today, but I am wondering, what do your dogs like to play with? Every single stuffed toy she has had got destroyed with in 15 mins. She doesn't like kongs. She is now down to probably 10-12 toys, all balls with the exception of 2 rubber bones, 1 busy buddy, and one busy bone and her new rubber tug. Any thing your corgi's love?

We have the same problem, not too many toys that are safe with Lance! He has a variety of planetdog balls to play fetch with, a waggle, and a kong. The kong has lasted all four years we have had him and the waggle also has lasted probably because it involves getting food/treats out of it!!!!

When I shop at www.planetdog.com, I can only buy the toys rated 5 out 5 chompers otherwise he destroys them.

I am getting bored of buying balls, since he has now 2 baseballs 2 footballs, 1 orange ball 1 silver ball LOL
I decided that we can play fetch together with stuffed toys which he loves but I must entice him to bring it back to me with a treat, otherwise he wants to go and hide and rip it to shreds. He really does get excited when we play with a stuffed toy since the majority of the time its fetch with a ball which he still loves. Variety is nice sometimes but very hard!!!
Ginny loves this one:

She loves big soccer-ball type balls and this one is good because it has a handle. It's good from playing outside. She finally popped it, but she still likes to drag it around the yard. She also has a rubber strawberry toy that she loves, and a little tire. And then she has chewies. She really likes the antler I got for her, and loves to carry it around. But NO plushies allowed in the house. She guts them and then there's fluff everywhere. Which is unfortunate, because she loves them so...
yeah ein's the same way when it comes to all toys. he always eats up anything stuffed. we purchased him some rubber chew toys and he'll eat those as well. well actually he tears them up into tiny little pieces and likes to flip them off his nose. we just had to throw away his pull rope. surprisingly it lasted a good while but towards the end that thing was sooooo messy. there were all these little red and white strings all over the house. the worse part is that they were long so i had to pick them up by hand because if i vacuumed them, it would mess up the rotating brushes. so now i'm on the pursuit for something new. i'm thinking of trying a frisbee :)
Harlly is a toy unstuffer lol. Although she has this one toy that my fiance won her in a claw machine. We call him Mr. Baseball man, and she just wont destroy him for some reason lol. Other than that, the only thing she hasn't destroyed is her dryer ball lol. I found the ball in the dryer i got from my brother and i thought it was a dog toy.. she loves to play fetch with it, and while it has a few punctures, it is still completely intact.
Putter has always gutted stuffed toys. He's after the squeaker. I resorted to making unstuffed toys without squeakers. Heck of a lot cheaper than buying the unstuffed ones. Even the unstuffed ones you have to buy still have the squeakers. We also bought a 2 foot length of nylon rope. Tied knots at either end and Putt loves it. He loves tug of war. Another fun toy is a frisbee. He's also a Nylabone lover. Good luck.
Violet had gone through several stuff animal toys. She takes great pleasure from running around the house with stuffing flying everywhere. Rope bones also don't last in our house she unties them or something where they get all stringy. She does not fetch and only steals the ball from our other dog to bug him. She also showed no interest in the Kong.

The two best toys she has is her rubber jack but I don't know where I got it anymore and her Galileo bone by Nylabone. Here's the link for the Galileo bone on PETSMART but I'm sure you can find them other places. http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2750577 She's had this for almost 2 years and it's not destroyed yet. It has teeth marks but not chipped up or cracked. In her mouth it's pretty big so when she runs through the house with it in her mouth I feel confident she's not going to be able to swallow it by accident.
Loki destroys anything but tennis balls, as he doesn't really chew them and Kong Wubbas (the denim like ones, not the snugga ones) last him about 4 months minimum and are his favourite.
We haven't found a toy yet that they haven't destroyed. Stuffed animals end up de-gutted, tug rope toys are unraveled and reduced to a pile of string. So far tennis balls last the longest for us but even they get defuzzed and split open. They enjoy the gutless stuffed animals even without the stuffing.
Since March, 3 soccer balls have died ( I get 'em at yard sales for $1). Do they make Kevlar soccer balls?
Our newest intern is a water polo ball. Lighter than soccer balls and doesn't have the padded cover that invites teeth.
Anybody try a bowling ball? :)
We do have a dog toy that I think actually is made out of Kevlar.
LOL...... no bowling bowl, have tried a basketball, but wow Lance just wants to destroy that thing soooooo bad, but so far hasnt. We usually take it away from him because I think it would just cause more frusturation than its worth. It is entertaining to watch for a little while though.
Aren't Tuffies made of Kevlar? I've never tried one. Jolly Ball also makes a large ball with a rope through it. It took Lilliput over a year to kill her last one, and the rope makes it great to throw.

Julia
