Author Topic: Do any of you like to chew on pet toys? (Read 4860 times)

Sometimes, when I'm at the store, I get cravings to chew on a toy. I usually like to chew on the dog bones. Am I the only one?

Not pet toys, but I used to chew on everything else. It became a problem -- especially since I'd end up chewing holes in my shirts and stuff. Maybe it was a nervous habit or something, but it went away once I got my tongue pierced.

I like the rawhide bones, the rubber ones just never felt right and the rope versions get stuck in my teeth.

I don't chew on designated chew toys, but I chew on a lot of plastic things; straws, gum (yes, it's mostly plastic now), and my headphone wires.

Whoa.. headphone wires... I learned a hard lesson from chewing on wires back last year, when I did that. I was riding the bus home, I got this funny taste in my mouth.. I realized that it was like licking a battery. I go to take the wires out of my mouth, and- NYAH! ':goldomg:'

To put it mildly, my tongue got a zap. I havent chewed on very much since then... although, just gnawing on a dog bone every now and then's pretty relaxing.

You guys are great. You have solved the diet problems of America. I always open a bag of chips or anything just to munch on something. I think I will try a piece or rawhide. Can't be that bad can it? If this works, Furtopia should publish the "Furry Diet". I am serious.

nope, but after I finish eating meat and stuff that had a bone to it, such as pork chops and ribs, I'll chew on the bones like a dog would. it's fun and delicious at the same time

'> I also chew on pen caps until they're so flat the break. mm mm, plastic

I used to chew on my tounge a lot, does that count?

I never thought of chewing on stuff actually. Maybe I'll try it...

« **Reply #12 on:** March 06, 2005, 08:38:54 pm »

Sure, I guss that counts.* LOL *You should try it.

Well i do tend to chew on any thing from leather straps that i break off from old belts or i chew on strings from my hoodie but no dog toys so far

P_Z · « **Reply #16 on:** March 14, 2005, 06:05:56 am »

I don't do that... I have my toothbrush to keep my teeth healthy, thank you.

Mika Feldy · « **Reply #17 on:** March 15, 2005, 10:11:40 am »

I chew on alot of things, not chew toys though.
I mostly chew on string like things, such as the wires on my headphones, the wrist strap on my digital camera, dangleing string.

Flashy · « **Reply #18 on:** March 15, 2005, 11:04:03 pm »

Things Mitsuko (Flashy) chews on;
Nylabone
Kong
Rawhide bone
Sweatshirt cuff
Videogame controller wires
My knees
Spoon
Straw (both the grass type and eating utensil type)
Books covers (it's a habit! I must always mark my books as mine by getting a few teethmarks into them...)

So... I'm not limited to toys.

In a word? No. But if you guys all chewed on dentabones, maybe the dental health of this country would be improved without the fluoridated water.

I do chew on ice, but that's not a toy, so I guess it doesn't count. One of the docs I work with told me it meant I was sexually frustrated, though. ':?:'

Flashy · « **Reply #20 on:** March 15, 2005, 11:20:43 pm »

Ah, yes, ice is good; I don't chew it, but I pour salt on it and lick it till it starts to melt.

I had never considered chewing pet toys...
I always chew on the cords of my hoodies/coats, though, till they get all slobbery and I have to get a drink because they dried out my mouth

I chew on things only when I bored. Generally pens, plastic things, Action figures, toothpicks, the inside of my lip, and occasionally I have a go at dog toys. ':blush:'

One time when Hokey and I were in PetSmart we decided to try out some of the dog bones. We got a few wierd looks, but surprisingly no one seemed to care overly much.

I chew on everything. Though I dont have any pet toys around here to chew on even if the whim did take me. I always got in trouble as a kid because I destroyed pen lids in minutes without even meaning to.

Right now I'm particularly bad because my wisdom teeth are coming in - need to cheeewwwww *goes to get some gum, even though it dosent help much compared to plastic*

I chew on my lip and I chew on my fingernails but that is only when I am nervous or if I am deep in thought but I have never chewed any chew toys *chews on nail while in deep thought*
