Pepper is unequivocally the best dog ever. If you've ever checked out our pictures online you've realized that we take an inordinate number of pictures of her doing everything from sitting in the Jeep to playing in the snow and especially hiking, her favorite activity. The only drawback to our Pepper dog, is that she destroys any and every stuffed animal toy that we have ever purchased. She's really excited to play with the animal at first, but within a few minutes the seams are ripped to shreds, the stuffing is torn out, the animal is dead, and she has lost complete interest.


However, while we were in Dallas, my sister purchased Pepper the best dog toy on the face of the planet: the "indestructible" Crazy Critter Fox. 



The toy is everything that a regular stuffed dog toy is, but without the stuffing. I don't know why, but this someone makes the toy "indestructible". Throw in two squeakers, one in the tail, one in the head and you have the recipe for a great dog toy. Ever since we've returned home, Pepper has played with Foxy on a daily basis. She even takes Foxy into her kennel at night to sleep with her. 

We have both been amazed at the longevity that Foxy has experienced. Never in Pepper's three years has she been so attached to a toy, or so we thought. Tonight, Foxy finally met her demise. Pepper chewed through the seam in Foxy's head, turned her inside out, and silenced the squeaker. She is now no longer interested in Foxy, she's only interested in playing with her towel. Such a sad day in the Horn household. 

RIP Foxy
