Not actually for aggressive chewers
Color: Alligator(Green)
*sigh* Yet ANOTHER toy that's marketed for aggressive chewers that doesn't live up to its claims. My 50-lb goldendoodle put a hole in the plush part of this alligator toy in under 3 minutes, and that was just from normal chewing and not the tooth gnashing with her molars that she usually does.
So why 5 stars still? Because after that initial hole was created, we've asked her to be gentle with it, and she's done a fairly good job, leading to a toy that is still intact that she absolutely LOVES. No kidding, this is her new favorite "baby," although I do suspect that the next new toy she gets will then become her new favorite. Kids, amirite?
Anyway, I suspect that she loves this toy so much (aside from the fact that it's the newest one) because it's kind of like 2 toys in 1. She has a large rope toy that she adores and only gets to play with when closely supervised because otherwise she uses her teeth to effectively cut through all of the individual rope strings in no time flat. This kind of mimics that texture, but she gets to play with this one to her heart's content and so far hasn't done any appreciable damage to it. She also loves the texture of plush toys, and this one is large enough that she can really grab it in her mouth, but not so big that it takes any effort to carry around.
The squeaker has somehow managed to remain alive, and I attribute that to her being asked to be more gentle with this toy, since usually, the reason why she's making holes in plushies is to dig that most cherished little plastic squeaker out of her toys' guts.
This is actually a pretty expensive dog toy, though the current coupon price brings it to just under $15, which seems more reasonable, but still kind of pricey for something that your dog may chew completely through in 10 minutes.
If you don't have an aggressive chewer, this is a pretty great toy. If you do, be prepared to pay for a toy that will become a pile of innards in pretty short order.
