    Lightbulb really crazy idea

    Is it safe for dogs to chew on Kevlar fabric?

    My dogs really like squeaky toys. So much, that plush squeaky toys have an average lifetime measured in minutes, if not seconds. Wondering if it would be safe for me to make a Kevlar tube and fill it with poly-fill and a squeaker.

    Thanks!

    Maybe you could check with the manufacturer. Otherwise I'd be afraid to just give it to your dog. I had a dog who did the same thing. She was obsessed with getting the squeaker out. I bought these round toys that the circle was made from tubing and the squeaker was put in the center. She had to bite it with her front teeth and it took a little longer. LOL

    Thanks krbs! I'll double check with our vet closer to when I place an order. If I go with the fabric from here (scroll to about halfway down the page), I'm thinking a denim needle might be the best choice. Any other thoughts on needle choice?

    I was going to say the same thing........but then had a thought....just because they are sold for dogs doesn't always mean they are safe.

    Would be interested to know what you find out about them, mek.

    my thought is: would it grind his teeth to nubs?
    11% gross to retirement
    10% takehome to tithe and offerings
    emergency fund maintained at 3000(works for me)
    credit card debt 7500
    mortgage free
    freedom accounts/sinking funds that ebb and flow
    then live on the rest!

    i am trying something new. LDS church advises savings or debt repayment should be the same as the tithe. 10% each.
