"3 months later this toy is still going strong and looks good. It has crinkle paper or something; that amuses my dog. All in all a great toy"

— Kelsey

"I never buy my dogs plush toys because they destroy them in the first few minutes but when I saw the durable chew plush Dino I figured I’d give it a try again. The material was definitely thicker but my dogs bit right through it and had the squeaker out in under 3 minutes."

Bottom Line

Good for moderate chewers and occasional use. Watch out for durability issues with heavy chewers. Provides good value and entertainment for up to several months.
