Oh, Sammi. I am just so sorry that you have not yet gotten over the bad pnumonia, and now you have snow to contend with! Please take care of yourself!!

As for the toys, I just don't know. The squeakers don't last long enough in our toys for them to ever have a problem in the washing machine. The squeaker is usually "out" the first day. But my girls will chew on those limp rags that are left for months. So I just throw them in the washer with the dog bedding occassionally.
