Highlighted Reviews
"My dog is a 55+ lb puppy. He loves the smell of the ball and hasn't torn it to shreds yet- and he's a chewer! However, the photo says for dogs up to 50 pounds, but I was sent one that was for smaller dogs. So the ball is too small and somewhat of a choking hazard."
"My puppy is absolutely obsessed and I was happy to find a teething toy for him, however, he was able to get off 3 of the nubs in an hour and now obviously I can't give it back to him. If you have a heavy chewer this doesn't work for them."
Bottom Line
While the scent is a hit and dogs enjoy it, its durability is questionable. It's best for light chewers or as a fun toy for teething puppies.
