"This is my two Boston Terrier's favorite new toy. They love to play with pull toys and if one is not available they use dish towels, my J.Crew Tee Shirt, etc. This is the best wearing toy I have found for them so far and it keeps them from playing with other non-toy items - like my lovely tee shirt ..."

"Everything I have purchased from Chewy has been excellent as well as their fast shipping, except this product started losing stuffing in 20 minutes. Expected more from "Kong" pull toy."

Bottom Line

While the KONG Pull & Squeak Cylinder Dog Toy offers fun and entertainment for moderately sized dogs, its durability issues make it less than ideal for more aggressive chewers or larger breeds.
