There they sit at the bottom of the toy bin, dusty relics of an ancient age...One may have been the favorite chew toy of your first dog, another the treasured tug toy of your "puppy" who is now a teenager.
Do pet toys have sentimental value? Absolutely. Worship them, cherish them or move on- just don't let your current dog play with them if they are in bad shape. Nylabones and Gumabones with the ends chewed off could pose a danger to your dog if the bone is eventually small enough to swallow. The frayed ends of a rope toy can also be ingested. Likewise your Gumabone Frisbee that already has several holes.
So do your dog a favor. For the old toys it's "time." Remove them from the toy bin. Make a trip to your favorite pet toy source- in town or online- and get some new toys. Start making some new memories.

The nice thing about when toys have reached their "time" is that you know they've had a full and useful life that has brought much pleasure to your furry friends. Let the toys go with dignity :)
