"My pup loves this toy. It's easy to chew, carry around, and he shakes it like a madman too. There's a squeaker inside he's figured out how to squeak while biting it"
"My pets didn't take to the Durablez Hound like they did to Lamb Chop. I thought the Durablez Hound would be as durable as Lamb Chop in a tug of war. It turns out the Hound wasn't true to it's name. It quickly got torn at the seams & quickly forgotten."
