Highlighted Reviews

— Vicki

"Great value in getting 3 toys. The dogs love them and they roll but not much as far as squeakers."

— kaycay11

"Wish I had read the other reviews before I purchased. The photos are very misleading. You do not get the 3 toys shown. You only get one toy & you don't get to choose which one - it is randomly chosen by the order picker!"

Bottom Line

A fun toy for puppies, best when bought knowing you get a single toy and at the right price. Rankings took a hit due to misinformation about quantity.
