In a Nutshell

  • Low durability, especially for strong chewers.
  • Quality has reportedly declined over time.
  • Provides mental stimulation and is loved by some dogs.
  • Frequent replacements may be needed for heavier chewers.

Quick Verdict

The Multipet Cross-Ropes Squeaky Plush Duck Dog Toy is a mixed bag. It offers some entertainment for dogs but suffers from durability issues and poor quality. Many owners found the toy to be chewed through quickly, often lasting only a short period before falling apart. However, a handful of users reported their dogs enjoying it, especially for fetch games. Overall, it’s not a bad option if you’re looking for a toy for a light chewer, but those with strong chewers may need to replace it frequently.

"Our baby loves to chew and starts at the seams. This one is a pretty good bang for the buck. We buy another one when the old one is shredded in the back yard and the squirrels start playing with it."

β€” Danielle

"My dog was only catching this and bringing back to me. It's ripping. Very poorly made if it's already falling apart"

Bottom Line

If you're looking for a durable and long-lasting toy, this one isn't ideal. For a light chewer, it's worth considering as it provides some entertainment and engagement but not for strong chewers.
