Highlighted Reviews
"We have 2 large dogs (80 pound lab and 198 pound Great Dane) and they BOTh love this toy! It's the perfect size for them both! We often find one of them sleeping with it."
"Super disappointed. I figured this would be a silly toy for our dog, who, in her later years, doesn't tear up toys like she did as a pup. When I opened our Chewy box, I found the banana toy already had small tears in the material, some of the stuffing on the side area was coming out too."

If you have a large dog that enjoys plush toys and isn't an aggressive chewer, this toy could be a good fit. However, be prepared for it to not last very long.
