Importance of Dog Toys

One of our readers responded to our request of stories about their dog. We would like to thank Denise for sharing her story with us and sharing the importance of dog toys in your dog's life..

“Niky was our dog for over 15 years. She was like a child to us. Niky was a part Terrier part Sheltie, or so we were told by the farmer we got her from. Very pretty. White hair with brown face, adorable face. She had a couple of brown spots on her too and very tiny paws. The perkiest ears and a long skinny tale with hair cascading towards the end. I would have to say her favorite toy would be the "Harley the HedgeHog". It even looked like a wood chuck, and when she squeezed it with her tiny mouth it made a almost snorting noise; kind of funny!! Niky got the big one and the small one, you know, cause she was spoiled. When we would get home from work she would first great us and her "Harley" would be the next thing she would run for wanting us to play with her before dinner. Niky took both big and small "Harley" with her where ever we went and she liked to go. Niky would even go as far as actually play catch with them and also slept with them with her paws around them as if she was hugging them. Niky was a unique dog in a sense that I swear she knew exactly what you were thinking, she understood you, but she just couldn't talk. Some days I wish she could have. The best times in our lives were with Niky. May she rest in peace."

Denise went on to encourage other dog owners to not give up when choosing dog toys for your dog. She stated that initially Nicky was very picky and they had bought several dog toys for her before finding the one Nicky would take to. Little did they know she would take to it as much as she did. Denise closes with “Some of our best times and memories with Nicky were playing with her and her Harley.”
