"My dog loved the plush version for a whole 10 minutes before it was destroyed. This toy has lasted several weeks and he still loves it. Both parts are holding up well and he plays with them separately also. Great toy."

— Kayconn

"My golden retriever ate a hole in it the first time he played with it. He is not even a chewer! All his stuffed toys etc are still in tack.."

Bottom Line

Perfect for puzzle-solving dogs. Animals prone to chewing might need a more robust toy.
