I have enough problems with her chewing up other stuff around the house without her getting into cutting implements, fake or real. Because of her, I've had to buy two new cellphone chargers in the last month because she's eaten the plugs off the cord. <BR/><BR/>Idjit Chinee.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Rabbit.Rabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09924556230506190220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-30261414619958333702007-12-04T17:41:00.000-06:002007-12-04T17:41:00.000-06:00Its a Mr. Potato head box cutter chew toy...weirdn...Its a Mr. Potato head box cutter chew toy...weirdnessSoHoShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359887366810989861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-53655450053287198172007-12-04T05:49:00.000-06:002007-12-04T05:49:00.000-06:00I know this is pathetic, but when I saw this, two ...I know this is pathetic, but when I saw this, two things came to mind before I stopped to consider the absolute weirdness of this.<BR/><BR/>1) That is the cutest box cutter I have ever seen, and if they made a working real box cutter that looked like this, I may need to buy one. Just because I like weird stuff like this.<BR/><BR/>2) If it weren't for the box cutter blade, this would look an awful lot like a penis with eyes. Now *that* is a creepy thought right there.<BR/><BR/>Then I thought about the whole box cutter as a chew toy conundrum and I came to the conclusion that it's not really THAT weird, especially considering the other kinds of toys available to us at, say, the pet stores.<BR/><BR/>There are canvas chew toys in human shapes labeled "Mail Man" and "Vet". Certainly, most of us are spending our time trying to KEEP our dogs from chewing on the real thing? (Or even barking at them.)<BR/><BR/>There are flying squirrels, chirping birds, cats, and all sorts of other plush creatures. They're adorable, yes, but most dog owners spend lots of time trying to keep their dog from chasing / lunging at / barking at / killing those little critters if they see them in the great outdoors.<BR/><BR/>Then there are the plastic chew toys where weird knows no boundaries. The tire on a rope. A set of keys. All sorts of weirdness. I don't think the box cutter is any stranger than those.<BR/><BR/>But... I do think nobody should buy any dog toys with PAINT of any kind on them - unless they're guaranteed not to be made in China. They've done too many tests and found led paint on most Chinese-made dog toys.Mauser*Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574537076084578786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-51360603703745186212007-12-03T20:44:00.000-06:002007-12-03T20:44:00.000-06:00That is odd.That <I>is</I> odd.J.R.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08498164179579546593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-22934574018018273452007-12-03T19:00:00.000-06:002007-12-03T19:00:00.000-06:00It's Chinese and in some local Asian locations, do...It's Chinese and in some local Asian locations, dog is for dinner.

I do believe you should make your objections known to the store manager when you return it.
