Highlighted Reviews
"The shape of this is making it a hard one to destroy. Our girl especially destroys toys when the squeaker is in the limbs - this one it's mid-belly of the Phrog, so she can't/isn't as driven to get to it."
"Unfortunately, my experience with this toy left me feeling disappointed, especially considering its claimed durability rating of 8 out of 10 on the Tuffy website."

Overall, it's a good choice for moderate chewers, but caution is advised for owners of aggressive chewers.
