"I buy these for our little Jack Russell with a soft bite. Squeaky and she loves to chase the ball. I do not recommend this ball for chewers."

— Susan

"I wish that I had read the reviews before I bought this toy. My shih tzu has a very weak jaw and he loved this ball, it is soft and squeezed so nice, TWICE, and stopped, he was so sad. For 6.00, it was a disappointment."

Bottom Line

If you have a small dog that doesn't chew aggressively, this toy might be a good fit. However, if your dog is a strong chewer, you may want to look for a more durable option to ensure it lasts longer.
