"My pups love this toy! It hasn't ripped or fell apart yet so that is a plus!"

"My lab has been a chewer & been getting better. He tore it to pieces & never figured out there were eggs to dig out even after shown. Sadly we didn't like this one."

Bottom Line

Overall, It is a sunk-cost if you are curious about your dog's reaction to squeaky eggs, although this is fragile, especially if you have a dog who loves to chew on the products, the best bet is to have toys that last a good while and ensure a confident play time.
