Hi everyone, Maggie (our 17 week old Border Collie pup) has just started teething from about a week or so ago and has managed to destroy nearly all her toys this past week (and she has A LOT)!!! 
She seems to be a very strong chewer, as all the toys I have bought specifically for teething puppies are getting destroyed in a 2 minute chewing session!
The only things that are surviving are Kongs (we have an assortment of shapes and she loves them) and the Orbee/Planet Dog rubber bone toys, but the adult ones.
Even the Nylabone for teething puppies didn't last longer than one eve! Although the adult one has lasted considerably longer.
All her stuffed toys are now ripped and I have sewn them all up - she just literally chews and chews at a specific spot until it breaks.
On Sunday night she destroyed three toys one after another within 5 mins each - an apparently 'Invincible rubber ring' had rubber coming off it in minutes, and two toys by a new company I cant remember the name, one was a puppy teether toy that split and one was a canvas type thing that held a water bottle which ripped almost immediately!!
So any ideas on toys that will last longer? I have accepted she is obviously a very strong chewer !!
So I am going to go online and order some new bits and pieces for her, so any thoughts before I do would be appreciated?
The one good thing is that she is extremely good and only ever chews her toys, never anything else!
