My little girl doesn't have much interest in playing with any toys. Anyone experience the same and found a toy(s) that solved the problem? Please give me your suggestions. Thanks to all.

Spencer did the same thing for awhile, so I bought him a little ring toy and it has bells in the corners and i shake it and he takes it and rolls around with it. He also started playing with one of my old stuffed animals and he always plays with that now lol, you could also try little squeaky toys and see if the works. all the best to you

My dogs like really small toys that I can toss and they can fit in their mouth. Their favorite toys of all time are these that I got at PetCo. They've got one of each:

Mine really love their cuz toys. They are a ball with feet. We play fetch with them. We got them at Petsmart

I first started out getting Aubrey the Petstages toys at Petsmart, they are sorda expensive, but they will NOT fall apart. They are great. Then I got him the Hide-A-Squirrel, then I just recently got him this rope toy that helps clean his teeth at petsmart, he just loves it. He will just bring it to you. http://www.petsmart.com/global/produ...N=2026213&Ne=2

They also have other toys.

My little man loves his toys but his most favorite toy of all is a dasani water bottle flattened in the middle with the lid on to keep the air out...makes it easy for him to bite and carry around. Dunno what it is about it, but he LOVES it!

Aubrey loves to run around with water bottles too! They enjoy something out of it.

Jake LOVES toys, he plays with them all the time. He has always been that way. He seems to like the smaller toys because they're easy for him to carry around, but he also loves his bigger plush toys.

Toys that make noise seem to really interest him, and he really likes the cat toys. He has a mouse and a bird that make noise, and he's so funny playing with those.

The Pet Stages toys are really great! The Hide-A-Squirrel is also a fun toy! Jake also plays with his "blankie" alot. He has one of those little baby security blankets that has a small stuffed animal built in.

It seems most yorkies love to play with socks too! We gave Jake a couple old socks to play with, and his favorite thing is when we roll it up and he has to get it loose.

He likes water bottles, so I made him a toy out of one that he really likes alot. Here's how you make it.

Take a 20-ounce pop bottle, drop a couple of dried beans inside, and put the cap on tightly. Slip the bottle inside an old tube sock and tie a knot in the top of the sock. Jake chews on it and loves to toss it around.

Jake loves water bottles too. When it's really hot outside, I freeze Gatorade in the bottle overnight, then I let him play with it in the backyard. He will toss it around all over and it's a good way for him to stay cool, plus the Gatorade that he gets from it is good for him in the heat.

maggie has never been one to play with toys much. But lately she has started being more into them once she sees i'm not gonna let her just sit or lay. I make her get down and tell her to go get a toy and play. maybe it makes her mad and she grabs a toy to take out her aggression on me. lol. She has really got better tho about toys, not certain one but usually the rubber squeaky ones or the soft fabric squeaky ones. Maggie wont even go get a toy and bring it to us, but only if she wants to, but no way will she bring it to us.
goodluck.

My guy loves the kids toys for some reason...he is CONSTANTLY pulling out my daughters Furreal Friends out of her room..since they meow and bark and so on....today Reecey got his pug in the mail and it cries like a newborn and moves around like a newborn...all he has to do is touch the back of this puppy and it crys and moves around...I know its not a 'dog' toy per se but he LOVES his new puppy!!

He also loves his yorkie puppy that he got for his birthday...he snuggles with her every night!!
