Dillon also has an affinity towards the cat toys, one in particular. I bought this little chipmonk toy for my girls, it has catnip in it, and crackly sounding, and small. Well day one, i found dillon with it, so i took it away and gave it back to the cats, then later i found him with it again, so now i let him play with it ( supervised only as i dont want him ripping it apart and eating the catnip, not sure what effect if any that might have on a dog) and we play a get the chipmonk game where i make it hide under my legs and he tries to dig it out , or shove his nose under my leg to get it...it makes for a laughing good time for all...

I also got one of the life stages toys that is a light blue jack that you can stuff food into the "arms" of the jack and it is a rubber type toy like a kong but when you throw it it bounces irratically and makes the pups crazy, and it is designed for puppies.

THe toys that linda mentioned, that talk and make appropriate animal noises, scare the crap out of DIllon! LOL!!! I will try again, but the monkey really scared him ...so much for the big tough corgi ---NOT!

oh and on the fluffy front, I know of a very highly regarded breeder in MA ( Heronsway) who had bred two lovely champion dogs, and somewhere in their lines ( undetected for many generations) was a recessive fluffy gene, and she had a litter of 8 puppies, ALL FLUFFIES! Needless to say she wont be breeding those two again ! but all her puppies are highly desired so they all have wonderful homes...and what could be cuter than a little fluffly pup- talk about a little bear! Dillon's from a litter of three, his two brothers, both fluffies..and Gosh were they the cutest little things-
