In a Nutshell

  • Durable, great for chewers, and liked by many dogs.
  • Slight aroma may turn some dogs away initially, but fades over time.
  • While some buyers may prefer toys that squeak, vibrate, or vocal, encouraging exploration, those who’re challenging enough with protrusions illustrate more interest in these toys. Pet owners will have to commence with any purchase getting the toys.

Quick Verdict

The Frisco Fetch Rubber Stick Dog Toy is an excellent choice for pet owners looking for a durable and entertaining fetching toy. It has proven durable with excellent feedback, especially for aggressive chewers. Few dogs have disliked the smell of the toy initially, but this seems to fade in time. If your dog doesn't chew on toys with vigor, this cheerful toy might not be the most exciting since it doesn't squeak or vibrate. Despite a minor price complexity, it’s worth checking out this toy's longevity and durability.

Highlighted Reviews

— Sara

"Our 2yr old Lab kept taking real sticks from the woodpile or finding branches downed in storms to chew apart. He kept coughing on wood chips. This rubber fetch stick is a good size, and is shaped like a stick. It satisfies his fetching obsession and also has stood up to his chewing. No crumbs or pie..."

— Megan

"Nothing wrong with this toy in terms of durability or anything, but my puppy, who looooves sticks, was unfortunately not interested in this stick at all."

Bottom Line

Overall, the Frisco Fetch Rubber Stick Dog Toy is a solid, value-oriented toy that many dogs enjoy. However, if your pet is not a frequent chewer, they might not be as fascinated with this as they would be with other toys that might be thrilling, vomit squeakers.
