The daughter of a prominent Black businessman, Dolores Mae Duncan grew up in New York City during the exhilarating 1930s. A unique and progressive education at the famed Little Red School House in Greenwich Village helped Dolores prepare for a life she could not have imagined for herself. Her teen years in a white middle-class New England town taught her that privilege did not shield her from prejudice. While marriage to the young, dynamic Clifton R. Wharton Jr. may have seemed natural, she did not realize they were embarking on the adventure of a lifetime, one that would take them to the farthest reaches of Asia, the hallowed halls of academe, the most austere corporate boardrooms, and even the shadowy depths of Washington, D.C., politics. Throughout this life of adventure, Dolores Wharton witnessed firsthand the unequal treatment being afforded minorities and women. As a result, she leveraged her position and influence to develop corporate programs that changed countless people's lives in profound and meaningful ways. A Multicultured Life reveals an aspect of Black culture rarely explored, one crucial to understanding the full expanse of Black experience in America. But at its core, it is a love story: love of learning, of the arts, of civic duty, of family--and most especially the love between Dolores and Clifton Wharton, who have spent a lifetime lifting each other up when times were difficult and sharing the joy of lives well lived.

Almost Indestructable.
Style: Squirrel
We have an aggressive chewer that has yet to be able to crack this one open.  It's so indestructible that ours gives up on it and only plays with it infrequently. So the minus 1 star is more about the dogs preference, maybe.  But make no mistake, this is made better than any other toy I have ever seen.

Fun toy for the dog
Style: Squirrel
This is a hit with our dog.  We have a schipperke who is very active and we play tug of war with “duck” every morning.  It has held up amazingly well despite his sharp teeth.

“ Not easy to destroy”. My arse!
Style: Squirrel, Style: Squirrel
Description says not easy for aggressive chewers to destroy. Well, my non aggressive chewer had in destroyed in less than 24 hours. Notice the lack of feet. Think I can get a refund?

My T-Rex Killed It
Style: Squirrel
This toy would likely be fine with dogs who don't immediately destroy toys. I have a small 15lb dog that I refer to as a T-Rex. We did not use it as a tug toy and it was taken away most of the time he wasn't playing with it, but I forgot about it for 5-10 minutes and it was torn apart. My dog does not get 'regular' toys any more. They have to be the toys marked for 'aggressive' chewers. Some GoDog toys have been good, and he has received the Bark Box toys for aggressive chewers, but Bark Box toys for aggressive chewers seem to only come in larger sizes if your dog is an aggressive chewer and a lot of the toys are too heavy and large (mouth size) for him play with very much.

Sturdy: Westie tries to destroy it, but it has held up
Style: Squirrel
Because it's not a stuffed animal toy, there is not the issue with the stuffing getting torn out. Squeakers at head and tail. Dog loves it. Had fun lightly tying it onto fishing line, putting on the roof using the fishing pole, and yanking it off when the dog isn't expecting. He loves it and goes mad trying to, well, exterminate the varmint! Key is lightly tying to fishing line using a loop so it comes off (most of the time) when the dog shakes it violently. Short vid of how it comes off the roof. No dog in video because couldn't manage fishing pole, camera, and dog at same time. Have put it in bushes, low tree branches, flat in the yard...just start reeling in and the fun begins.
