Highlighted Reviews

— Robyn

"My little dog is a tough chewer and this has lasted 2 weeks so far, longer than most soft toys. He absolutely loves to play fetch with it too. Great little toy."

— mfour

"Had it for one day, my dog chewed it up and actually ingested some of the fabric. Although it was promoted for its toughness-that quality is non-existent, especially since my dog isn't a big chewer. Folks at Chewy should remove this product from its inventory, given that dogs could swallow large pie..."

Bottom Line

This toy is best avoided, especially for heavy chewers. Consider alternatives that are more durable and better designed for intensive play.
