Help! My puppy only chews plush toys but he destroys them too fast!?

In have a 14 week old puppy and he only likes chewing plush toys, especially those with the squeaker inside. The problem is that he doesn't just CHEW on them, he RIPS them by holding down the toy with his front paws and then pull with his teeth. He also uses his molars to chew down the plush material. The main problem is that he rips the material then eats it! A new toy usually gets chewed through to the filling in a day. I can't afford to keep buying him new plush toys every other day, and I don't want him to keep ingesting fibers from toys. What should I do? I've tried Kong toys, but he doesn't like them at all. =*(

Help! My puppy only chews plush toys but he destroys them too fast!?
please be careful my friend was doing the same thing you were and piece of the string got caught under her puppys tounge and didnt know it.and she had to get emergencie surgery. buy some chewys there real hard and go to the pet store and ask them just be careful..
Reply:Did you try the Kong toy you put treats inside? Most dogs love trying to get at the treats.
Reply:To get through my puppies chewing stage without breaking my pocket book, I started buying old toys at Goodwill or any thrift shop. That way it doesn't matter if they chew up a stuffed animal when it only cost me a few cents. Also, I found my pups loved chewing on hard plastic, so they got all my discarded tupperware or mismatches at a rummage sale.
Reply:I HAVE TWO DOGS AND THEY DO THE EXACT SAME THING WHAT I STARTED DOING IS BUYING THREE OR FOUR AT A TIME AND GIVE THEM ONE AND WAIT UNTIL THAT ONE IS TORN TO PIECES BEFORE I GIVE ANOTHER. NORMALLY THEY PLAY WITH THE LITTLE PIECES OF FABRIC FOR A WHILE. BUT TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION I JUST THINK DOGS JUST LOVE THE SOUND OF THE SQUEAKY. THE BEST THING IS TO GIVE HE A NEW ONE EVERY MONTH INSTEAD OF EVERY WEEK. HOPE IS HELPS
Reply:Buy him a real chew rope toy
