"My dog likes noisy toys. The louder the better. This one did not let him down. I had as much fun watching him toss and chase this ball as he did playing with it. Have to keep an eye on him because he is working at taking the tire apart."
"My dog fish it off but could not get it back on so disappointed as all its stuffing came out equally disappointed."
