Highlighted Reviews
"I got my rope toy very quickly and my dog really loves playing tug of war with it. Will buy another once this one is no longer functional."
"The first time I purchased this toy, it was made of better materials. This time, my dog had the ends unwrapped and holes torn in the first 5 minutes. So much so, that I had to take it away as I was afraid he would choke. Please stock toys of better quality. If I could give "0" I would."
