Highlighted Reviews

— Tammy

"Our GSD loves this toy, she chewed up the other one and we had a hard time finding another. Chewy had it listed and omg we had to grab it. Our GSD is in heaven with having her toy back."

— Amanda

"This lasted about 1 day, then my dog ate the end off and slowly but surely kept eating the rubber. I had to throw it away."

Bottom Line

If your dog is a lightweight chewer, the Mammoth TireBiter could be a good fit. For aggressive chewers, look for more durable options.
