"It took two days before the horns tore off and a week before the squeeker was torn out. After a month they are still playing with it and no stuffing covering my house. I say it was a good buy and I did buy a second one for another dog."

— Lorelei

"This toy has tiny furry pieces of fuzz that pull out from the toy so easily, and they are almost unnoticeable, that come out of the “hairy” strands on this toy and will get stuck to the roof and tongue of your dog’s wet mouth. They will try to lick these out of thei mouth, most will get caught..."
