My 15 month old male GSD went through TWO eggs in the period of a just over a month. He figured out how to grab the top of the egg without it popping out of mouth, and then proceeded to shred the top off it (the rest of the egg was just fine). He absolutely loved his egg (he'd push it around, bury it halfway into a hole and dig it out, etc.), but they were too expensive to replace. And for the record, he was never left alone with it for long periods of time; I only left it available in the dog run for one or two hours, or we played with it together while I was outside doing lawn work.
Sigh. I might cave and buy him ONE more but man, I'm limiting his access to it. Seriously, he was addicted to that damn egg. One day when my classes ran late, I arranged for my mother-in-law to pick him up and bring him back to her house; when I came to pick him up in the afternoon, there was the mangled egg lying forlornly on her patio. I told her that was good of her to bring it along, but she said she didn't pack it. Mojo wouldn't leave without it! When she let him out of the dog run, he made a dash for his egg, joyfully brought it into her car, then happily gazed out the car window with the egg cradled between his front legs (I love my mother-in-law).

Hans has figured out how to grasp it with his front paws so he can get his mouth around the top of it, more or less, and try to chew on it, more or less.
If we kick it or throw it he goes after it, then he "grabs" it while we try to kick it away from him. It is a lot of fun.
