Dogs love it, but it lasted 10 minutes
Color: Blue Yellow, Pattern Name: Alligator
Five stars for the dogs both loving this thing. I have a Catahoula/pitbull and a Great Pyrenees/Red Heeler. They absolutely loved this toy but it only lasted about ten minutes before it was pulled apart and losing its innards. They didn’t really care - they each took half and proceeded to tear it to shreds with great joy. Two stars for durability, but since they’re big dogs who are happiest when chewing on things I figure the toy deserves to be rounded up from a three to a four. Small dogs probably would still love it without the strength to yank it apart so quickly.

Dogs are obsessed with this, somehow has not been gutted yet. Long enough that they can both play with it. Neck not as stretchy as I envisioned but it’s fine.
