"My pup loves all of these hide and seek toys!! We honestly wasted so much money on cheaper toys. But after getting a supply of toys from chewy, our very chewing puppy has not destroyed all her toys. This one is her favorite so weβve had it for 2 months now and itβs held up. No damage to the chic..."
