Highlighted Reviews

β€” Marilyn

"My 18 pound Shih Tzu loves toys that have 'dangles'. This has become a new favorite toy. It is tough and should last a long time."

β€” LabMom

"The toy is adorable, but it didn't withstand my Labrador's jaws. The ball, which is tennis ball size, is more durable than a lot of squeaky toys but the squeaker was still punctured within an hour or two of play."

Bottom Line

Overall, a good option for smaller dogs but non-durable if the dog is destuctive and a squeaker leads to issues with the dog for accepting the toy. The squeaker sufferance is a key concern ranging from hours to a few days.
