One thing that is pretty inexpensive and disposible--she loves those ropes with the big knots on the ends. They keep her busy for a long time-after she plays tug-o-war for a while with someone she will lay down and chew on them and untie the knots. Keeps her occupied for quite a while. Have to throw them out once she unties them or she will start trearing them apart and eating the strings.

Only good chew I found is a natural bone to keep them busy for hours and on a hot day raw bones are even better frozen. And come on I know labs are smart but they don't unscrew lids, chew them off maybe. Plus with labs you have to keep their minds busy and with a younster all the more reason. A tired labbie is a good labbie. with labs nothing is indestructable even if the manufaturer thinks it is.

I know what you mean about opening doors, I tie my doors shut to keep them out of the rooms I don't want them in. They're very naughty but also very funny !

I don't know the name, but see them in pet stores. She completely destroyed or ate everything else - this could be thrown to her, or she'd chew on it or walk around with it in her mouth. Your dog sounds really smart - probably very trainable. My brother's lab is smart too - she will lay down, roll over, shake hands & give high fives, crawl on her belly,etc. (He just can't get her to stop racing toward people & jumping on them yet - she loves everybody, but she weighs 90 lbs. so its a bit much to take when she lunges for you!)
