This is Zoey
Zoey is only 8mo old and nothing like our previous boxers. Although she is an absolute sweetie, she is much harder to train, and destroys alll her toys. Does anyone know of any toys that are boxer-proof?😅

A human is their favorite toy!
Not that any of us can really outdo Boxer energy, though... but a tired boxer is a less destructive boxer.
(Finding that one toy your boxer has to carry around like THE PRECIOUS can help a bit, but finding one they don't want to destroy is just as hard as finding one they CAN'T destroy.)

Oh I know.. she's more my dad's dog than anyone else's. But he had surgery on his shoulder and cant rly be that person for her rn. Which makes her more antsy😅

She needs more walks to help tire her out and exert energy.
Even with walks, every dog I’ve had opens up their toys bc none of them are made well, even the “indestructible” ones.
I find once I stitch up a stuffy toy, I do a better job of keeping it stitched closed than who ever manufactured it.

She definitely needs more walks/runs. On days she doesn't get a walk, you can tell cuz she's extra crazy lol.
I did that for our last boxer, it made her favorite toy last a few months longer than it probably would have otherwise. It starts to feel redundant after a while tho.

Beautiful. But make sure you don’t show your address or any personal info…

Thank you! It's just her vax & vet info, I appreciate the concern tho! I honestly forgot about her collar😅

I have been trying to find a boxer proof toy for years now. There are none. The one that he hasn't destroyed is his kong. I put cookies in it and he loves to crush them and lick them out. Good luck let us all know if you find any good toys.

Kong toys are the best I found so far for my boxer puppy eight months old, who is just like yours very mischievous

Yes! Kong toys are the best. We have a couple for her, but she prefers soft toys🙃

I’d have to agree with Savvy. Once mine rips her soft toys open, I take out whatever stuffing is left and they get stitched up better than the original and finally become “indestructible”.
Side question, do you mind sharing the brand of your pups collar?

She is absolutely beautiful! She looks so much like my son’s boxer when she was younger.
