"These are shared by two aggressive chewers, and have lasted several months."

— Beth

"This is NOT a toy for aggressive chewers (as advertised!)!! All three began shedding nylon bits within 5 minutes of use!! Had to throw them all away (3 total). What a huge waste of money for 5-10 minutes of use!"

Bottom Line

These chew toys are a good option for moderate chewers but may not be suitable for very aggressive chewers due to potential shedding of nylon fragments.
