"This has become her favorite toy over her squeaker!! I like the looks of the turtle and thought she would like it, but she went nuts over it and you can barely hear the squeaker. I think its the crinkle noise not but Pixie loves it, funny thing is it's almost as big as she is. :)"

β€” Adele

"Cute as can be, yet sadly the squeaker is not functioning. My very smart da Vinci must know it’s in there as he is trying to get it to work by pressing it with his tiny foot. If that doesn’t work, he will press it with his nose and then walk away. He is not even interested in the crinkle sounds ..."

Bottom Line

If your dog is a strong chewer or you prioritize durability, consider looking at other toys. However, if your dog is a light chewer and you're looking for a cute, short-term distraction, this toy could be a temporary solution.
