"This toy has been wonderful for all three of my dogs. All three are different sizes and this toy fit all of their needs. The little guy was able to steal it and hide it under the bed, while the girls walked around squeaking it in their jaws or just sat and enjoyed it. It has yet to rip or tear durin..."

"not sure why the dogs didn't like this toy even after I washed it and had the household smells on it....I even mixed it in with their other toys but they still didn't touch it."

Bottom Line

This toy is a fun, good-looking addition to your dog's toy collection, but don’t expect it to last long. It’s a hit with the little ones but be prepared for frequent replacements or repairs.
