Here's armadillo right before I gave him to Major on the afternoon of 5/27/14:
The following morning, on 5/28/14, as we were playing tug-of-war, Major ripped a hole in armadillo:
It was all over in a matter of minutes after that:
Note: the white thing by the table leg is the squeaker. |
Total destruction |
Major usually continues to play with his toys even after he's torn them apart, so I didn't throw armadillo away until 6/12/14. However, in truth, he stopped playing with him as soon as he'd desiccated him. Here's armadillo before I threw him away:
When I lived in Texas, I saw a few armadillos on the side of the road that looked like this. |
I bought armadillo for $8.00 at a major pet store retailer. He lasted less than a day. I think I've learned my lesson now. No more purchasing larger toys, no matter how easy they are to throw.

Armadillos by the side of the road that look like that. Hah! Poor armadillos.
Maybe you should buy the bigger toys at Goodwill. They usually have tons of stuffed animals that would fit the bill as dog toys.
I don't know if you've ever seen the movie "Rango," but there's a run-over armadillo in it and that's pretty much what every armadillo I ever saw in Texas looked like, haha.
And that's a great idea re: getting stuffed animals from Goodwill. Thanks!
