Highlighted Reviews

β€” Bailey

"Defiantly not a toy for heavy chewers, but my aussie loved the lion crackle toy we had before so got him this one. He already chewed off one of the tiny paws, but really enjoys crunching on the head."

β€” Angela

"I added this particular item to my most recent order because I understood it to be a good toy for a power chewer. That is absolutely not the case. Within less than 2 minutes she had the whole little body completely shredded."

Bottom Line

It’s a fun toy for compact chewers. Owners must be cautious with destructive dogs.
