While balls and cats are popular at our house, too, the all-time-favorite toy (especially for mom) was Hedgehog. He oinked more than squeaked and when you have dogs that like to "squeaka-squeaka-squeaka" all night -- he's a life saver. The Buster cube and ball are also biggies until the fights over tidbits break out. Then, it's bye-bye Buster.
