Chika has a thing for chewing. He is only a medium sized dog, but he has a wolf jaw. Tennis balls are destroyed within seconds, those large dental bones disappear before you can leave the room. He can CHEW. Every year we buy him a rope ball for his chewing pleasure. It has to be the biggest ball our pet store carries, as the smaller ones simply get wrecked too quickly. He got his latest ball a couple of weeks ago …. and boy was he happy!

Happy Chika…and very intent on doing damage to his rope it would seem! I love how he is clutching it in those first two pictures.

I sure hope he confines his chewing to designated doggie toys! :-)

Hello Kate! What a beautiful dog Chika is. Lovely markings! That’s a great ball on a rope. I think we need one that size for Oscar. He’s got a pretty good pair of chewing jaws too! Have a great week. Ros
