— Kingsley

" I lucked up on this one. I bought it on clearance,because my psycho terrier is TOUGH on toys! He even killed a Kong in less than 3 days. Although this is starting to show wear, he LOVES to play tug of war and this little snowman stands up very well."

— Megan

"Broke in 10 minutes. My dog loves tug of war and she broke this fast. I did like the elasticity of the rope but it's in pieces. I would not buy again. It was not worth the money."

Bottom Line

If you're looking for a fun tug toy and don't mind replacing it frequently, this could be a good choice. For durability, you might want to consider other alternatives.
