I wish my dogs knew where to go, lol. Well, sometimes the will run for the backdoor...IF they can make it there fast enough.

I think I might know what toy you are talking about. I have a blue one for Nebo, and Lady has...errmmm HAD...a red one. It kind of looks like 3 ball shapes stuck together (like a molecule) and has a hole in one of the shapes.

I wouldn't say that the toy is unsafe....any toy can have parts chewed off and become a problem. It just depends on the dog. Nebo has had his for months now, and there's a few toothmarks, but that's it. I leave it out with him almost every day in his dog run. He doesn't really chew on it (surprisingly!) and he just knows if he noses it around on the ground he will get treats.

But Lady on the other hand.......Melissa left it with treats in her dog run ONCE. She chewed off one of the ball shapes ENTIRELY!! She even chewed it off in a nice little circle, lol. Of course, this dog has also chewed up kongs! We ordered a Black King Kong for her so I hope that one will actually be indestructable!
