"After reading the other reviews, I was hesitant to buy this toy. I am so glad I did though! My 3-year old Rottweiler enjoyed this toy immensely... for about 5 minutes. Getting it to squeak wasn't a problem...We just had to be a little more forceful. The white part of the toy is a great tough materia..."
