The Dog Toy Tests & Reviews

The Boston Terrier Challenge
The Search for the Indestructible Dog Toy

There it is on the shelf...a bright new toy.
Even as that new toy is placed in the shopping basket, every Boston Terrier owner knows the fate of that toy - total destruction.
Boston owners shopping for new toys must weigh cost versus potential durability as well as safety. Every new release is greeted with possibility; is this toy...Boston Proof?

The Boston Terrier Challenge is the search to find the Boston proof toy. Is there an indestructible dog toy out there?

Boston Terriers are known for their joy of shredding and demolishing all types of toys. We have put the natural abilities of our toy testers, Bergamot & Emrys, to work testing and reviewing all types of dog toys. The dog toys are rated according to thrill, durability, safety and cost.

The Toy Testers: Bergamot & Emrys

Bergamot Bergamot Fury

Specialty: Seam Ripper

Bergamot's favorite pastime is de-stuffing a soft, plushy squeeky toy. He has a very efficient system that brings him much joy. He finds the seams and opens them with his teeth. Once he has a small hole, he begins the delicate process of fluff removal. Here is the official procedure for fluff removal: grab mouthful of fluff in front teeth, pull, turn head to the side, spit. Repeat. When he is finished, there remains a barely damaged plush toy - only flat.


Emrys Emrys

Specialty: Squeeker Removal

Emrys' toy technique has a bit less finesse than Bergamot's - but it is no less effective and much faster. Emrys' aim is to remove the squeeker as fast as she can with the use of brute force. Emrys begins her test by biting and punching the toy with her nose to ascertain the exact location of the squeeker. Once the squeeker is located within the toy, she begins to tear into the plush to get to the squeeker within. There is much shaking, tearing, ripping and clawing as she disembowels the toy. Once the squeeker is freed, she snatches it up in her mouth and runs away leaving a scattered pile of shredded plush and wet fluff.
