Toys for TOUGH Chewers?
So I've been a bad mommy! I haven't gotten anything for my pups for Christmas yet!  I have a pitbull mix and a collie mix. The collie is easy since he's a normal chewer. He's tough, but he loves to fetch rather than just DESTROY toys. Our pit is tough. She can chew through just about anything in 5 minutes flat. Even kongs and nylabones aren't safe for her. Anything TOO hard and she chews until her gums bleed!  I've heard mixed reviews about "orbee balls". Any idea if these are good? Also interested in things like the deer antlers, but I'm looking for a smaller chew toy that we can play fetch with. (at least for 5 minutes until Lucy decides she's done and brings it to her crate to destroy it!) Any recs would be wonderful! I'm also placing an order on Amazon.com (whoo hoo free 2-day shipping with prime!) so bonus points if I can order it from there.  TIA!

Re: Toys for TOUGH Chewers?
Wow! I have NEVER heard of a Kong being destroyed. Even the black ones?
I'm guessing the Orca toys are out then too even though they seem pretty indestructible.
Maybe get the deer antlers for chewing time and a different soft yet sturdy toy that you play fetch with and then take it away when fetch time is over. And only use that one for fetching.

Our dog ruins the kong too, we just got her the jolly ball http://www.petco.com/product/6025/Jolly-Pet-Tug-n-Toss-Dog-Toys.aspx?cm_mmc=CSEMGoogleAdExtProd-_-Dog-_-Jolly%20Pet-_-609498&mr:trackingCode=3703EC15-8381-DE11-B7F3-0019B9C043EB&mr:referralID=NA&mr:adType=pla&mr:ad=26560819675&mr:keyword=&mr:match=&mr:filter=51515442475. She's had it for a week and hasn't destroyed it yet, but does love playing with it.

I'm going to order that ball! It looks really cool. And "virtually indestructable"? Challenge accepted. 
I've never had an Orka toy, but honestly, I'm wiling to give anything a shot. I'm going to see how these toys fare and then go from there.

Our dog ( Casey shes a pit) destroyed the jolly ball LOL we have Tuffy Toys for her. We bought it at Petware House in Selden. It was a little pricey but shes still working on destroying it but its been about 8 months and she only chewed off the ear.
They're having a sale on dogtuff.com.

Really?! It just looks so.... so.... so soft! And fragile! They can't even get through the first layer, the soft fleece material?
