Highlighted Reviews

β€” Bonnie

"This toy is very cool. Just the right size for my boys to hold and it keeps they busy for quite a while trying to get the treat off. I would recommend this toy for any pup."

β€” Ejones371

"It took me longer to get the treat in the hole than it did for my dog to completely destroy the β€œtough dog chew toy”. There are pieces of it all over my floor. For $17 I was really hoping this would have actually been durable."

Bottom Line

If you have a dog that is not an aggressive chewer, this toy may work for a short period. However, for strong chewers, especially dogs with powerful jaws, it is best to look for a more durable alternative.
