Operation "Free the Squeaker"

Ever since he was little, Jake's always made it his mission to "free" any squeakers (and stuffing, for that matter) he comes across in toys. I managed to prolong the life of this toy (and intact squeaker) for a little while, by putting it up and out of reach when I wasn't around, but after only a few times of forgetting to pick it up when going inside (I blame the hubby, of course), this toy, too, succumbed to Jake's one-minded mission. (Isabella also had a hand in this toy's demise-- she loved nothing better than to de-stuff to her heart's content, when allowed. Looked like huge balls of cotton, or a dusting of snow, all over the ground around her. What fun to clean up...*sigh*...)

This toy is not entirely useless to us yet, however. It can still be thrown like a frisbee, and retrieved over and over again. And Champ has taken a shine to this toy, and loves to pick it up in his mouth and thrash his head about-- I guess trying to kill it? So despite the lack of a squeaker, there may still be hope for this toy yet. Speaking of which, I need to find said "freed" squeaker...
