Goes on and on

Lamb Chop is my Boston Terriers favorite toy. Problem is it only takes it a day or two before she has reduced it to a pile of fabric and stuffing, so we have stopped buying them 😔

We are on our second Lamby and will probably need a third for Christmas.

Our little girl loved her Lambchop.

All hail Shari Lewis. Those of us of a certain age remember her well

Her favorite ❤️

Despite this advertisement-posing-as-an-article, if you have a dog that likes to chew and are looking for a durable toy, this isn't it. My dog shredded it faster than just about any toy she's had.

... did we all forget about the iconic Lamb Chop's Play-A-Long show?

dethpuck.bsky.social•95 days ago

Was thinking the same thing.

anikachapin.bsky.social•95 days ago

Me too! This made me feel very old - I used to watch it all the time as a kid! And I'm only 41!

javeauriel.bsky.social•95 days ago

I don’t think ppl necessarily forgot but the hold that Lamb Chop has on the dogs is one that I’ve been wanting somebody to study bc it’s actually wild lol. It’s like she’s a dog whisperer 😂

hartigan.bsky.social•94 days ago

it's mentioned in the literal first sentence of the piece.

lynnhellwig.bsky.social•95 days ago

Lamb Chop was a little saucy at times, which made her fun for all ages. I would never buy a Lamb Chop doggie toy. That would be sacrilegious.

Lincoln loves his Lamb Chop!

rosapenna.bsky.social•94 days ago

I’d give it 30 minutes before my dog would shred it to confetti.

Wally loves his Lamby

stesti.bsky.social•95 days ago

My dog is on her fourth one.

sentenne.bsky.social•95 days ago

Lamb chop was a toy in the 50’s. I loved it too

maudegertrude.bsky.social•95 days ago

Lambie has been the favorite in our home for at least 15 years.

julesincumbria.bsky.social•95 days ago

My doggo has quite the collection, his favourites by far (especially Big Head Lamb Chop). He also has Birthday Lamb Chop, Witchy Lamb Chop Cop and Giant Lamb Chop.

gbrackett.bsky.social•95 days ago

Lamb chop and hedgehog have been the favorite of several dogs. The hedgehog wins usually only because it makes an amazing honk instead of a squeak

So this is how The Song That Never Ends ends?

powerclyde.bsky.social•95 days ago

Lamb Chop is Belle’s go-to happy toy. She runs around with it, plays keep-away, and retreats to a safe place where she can squeak it in playful defiance.

mattm1823.bsky.social•95 days ago

My puggle mugsy loves his lammy. When I adopted him he picked it out of bin at the pet store. He doesn’t destroy them. He had his first one for 3 years. It died when he left it outside.

bluefootedbird.bsky.social•94 days ago

I love Lamb Chop!

buddystone.bsky.social•95 days ago

I never could figure out how she made Shari Lewis talk.

therealjimteal.bsky.social•95 days ago

Is Lamb Chop in the public domain already?

davidkmcw.bsky.social•95 days ago

Our beagle has destroyed three of these, we don't buy them anymore

paugonzalez510.bsky.social•95 days ago

Well my dog is named Lamb Chop, so I win.

aboutthebloath.bsky.social•94 days ago

My late aunt was before her time. A lamb chop fanatic before it was hip.

green-circles.bsky.social•94 days ago

My dog has three lambies - two small ones and one medium sized one. He LOVES them, he carries the medium one up to bed every night, it's so cute. And yes, I did watch the show when I was a kid <3 The song that never ends is STILL playing in my head...

anapes.bsky.social•95 days ago

My dog would rip these toys to shreds within a week. After buy like 10 we gave up.

sorry-iamcanadian.bsky.social•95 days ago

Within 30 seconds of receiving a new stuffie, my cocker spaniel proceeds to rip out all the stuffing. He received Lamb Chop as a gift when he was a pup. It is the ONLY stuffie he has not ripped to shreds. Lamb Chop has elite status in our house.

Shadow loves his big Lamb Chop.

thebaroness.bsky.social•95 days ago

Lambchop would last about 10 minutes with my pooch.

vegasmick.bsky.social•94 days ago

I bought one a while back thinking that, being a name-brand dog toy, it would be fairly durable. Instead, I don't even think it lasted as long as 10 minutes.

I'll stick to Kongs.

doglady1725.bsky.social•91 days ago

I thought so too with my Shadow but he sleeps with his.

thebaroness.bsky.social•91 days ago

It did last 10 minutes.
