goDogDinos Frills Squeaky Plush Dog Toy, Chew Guard Technology - Gray, Small

I purchased the Dino Bruto Dog toy for my labradoodle who is quite fond of squeaky, squawky stuffed toys and oddly enough has shown a preference for purple. I opened the package with my hound standing by waiting for his gift. I detached the tags and attempted to squeak the toy. It seemed difficult to squeak or honk. I tossed the purple Dino Bruto to my dog who excitedly chomped to squeak. The toy squawked a couple times and then just quit. My poor hound was staring up at me with that "what's up with this" look on his face. I tracked down the website for the GoDog toys, not going through the Amazon return process. I called the good people at GoDog and stated simply that my dog's favorite part of the toy failed quite quickly and I was wondering about guarantees. I was told to go to the website and file a replacement request. The replacement request required that I include a photo which I did as directed. I received an reply email within a couple hours which stated that a new toy would be sent out shortly.I am happy to report that we received a replacement toy, not the purple Dino, but a colorful wood duck. The squawker device works well and is still performing like new more than a month later.It appears that the squeaker is not those little plastic squeakers but the bigger heavy plastic bag, bladder, with what I visualize as a duck call sort of sound device. I am guessing because I haven't seen the inside of the GoDog toys. I have seen the guts of other stuffed toys which use this type of noise device. While our dog seems to enjoy the sound of the plastic bag, bladder set-up squawkers, they seem to fail quickly and I tend to avoid them because of this. The toys using this type of squawker that I have seen, use what looks like a cheap lightweight plastic bag which is not securely attached to the "voice box".Since the GoDog replacement toy is holding up so well, I am guessing GoDog uses a heavier grade plastic bladder coupled with reinforced construction. The purple Dino Bruto toy still looks new even after multiple times of our hound grabbing the purple toy, shaking it at us with his invite to give chase or play keep away. Since the squawker failed so quickly with the new toy, I figure it was just a defective item which does not reflect the general quality of toys from GoDog.One evening our neighbor was visiting while his pitbull was playing in our yard with our dog. Our patio door was open so our dog ran into the house and grabbed his purple Dino Bruto toy. He is a bit of a show-off with new toys. Our dog then went racing back into the yard, shaking his GoDog toy at the pitbull. A quick game of tug-of-war ensued. Since this is a new toy, our neighbor leaped into the game and took the toy away from the dogs. In that short time of tugging between the dogs, the toy held together and did not even pull apart at any of the seams. There were no puncture marks either.This is a game our dog has initiated before with the neighbor pitbull. Normally, the stuffed toys are ripped apart almost immediately. I was surprised and impressed with the quality of the sewing which appears to employ some sort of reinforced construction or heavier material.I plan to make more purchases from GoDog toys. The toys are a little more expensive than some stuffed dogs toys but they hold up so well I figure they are worth a few more dollars. They are great toys that hold up well and the company provides quick responses to inquiries. I consider this a winning combination.

My dog loves this chicken! It squeaks in severalPlaces, he loved to play tug of war with it . It’s not indestructible he’s a big dog and has torn up 2. He loves it though it’s his favorite.

This toy lasted more than a month, and this was a good thing. Normally our pup with tear a toy apart in a matter of minutes and then rip the squeaker from it. Then I will spend 10 minutes paying get the squeaker from the pup. I believe she had this one for 6-weeks, her new record. So I thought I’d take the time to leave this review as I came back to order her replacement.Anyone that has a dog the years apart toys for fun will understand that 6-weeks is Great. If our friends are over when she gets a new toy, we place bets on how long it will last. It’s never been over 60 minutes.So if you are used to buying new plush toys every time you visit the pet store, give these guys a try.The multiple squeakers are also a bonus, however she got the main squeakers out of his head, so I had to throw him away.Great durability, excellent strength (she loves to play tug with her plush toys), and it’s cute.

My reasons for loving this toy: first off, my purchase of the Elephant arrived a day early; secondly, the toy is adorable and very well made. There are 3 “squeakers” in the body. One is a round ball located in the stomach, and two smaller “discs” in each of the feet (at least that is where I presumed them to be) which trigger “PLAY time!” There is also “crackle” in the ears. I felt a little remorse handing over this cutie, but that was the point of purchase; I hoped it would last a while. Our 1yr old GoldLab mix has been known to chew apart a three ring toy that was very hard rubber as well as removing the “hair” of tennis balls, popping and chewing the ball into bits. His toy ropes end up as shreds throughout the house. That said, I wasn’t sure this toy would stand up, but I had hope. Enter the elephant…..adorable! And doomed…he snatched it and happily trotted off to his bed. Within 5min, he had pulled off the tail, and within 10min he had ripped off a foot to reveal one squeaker (seams gave way). By a few hours later, “El” had been thoroughly de-feeted and unarmed, and I recovered the squeakers for my own piece of mind. Now, you might think this a sad/bad review, but it isn’t. I have learned that there is a difference in being a rugged “chewer” and being a neurotic “shredder”. I have no regrets with the purchase nor that it had no chance with our pup; without the squeakers and stuffing, our pup still carries his buddy happily around the house. He likes the crinkle in the ears and hasn’t torn those open (which surprises me). It’s his new friend. I do believe this toy to be a very good investment esp for most “normal” pups...the fabric itself has held up well, good size, cute buddy, and happy fun for a pet. I like it too….in fact, there was a hesitation as to if I wanted to keep it myself. lol PS-I have not contacted the company as I cannot fault the product; some pups are just master shredders. ;D (Photos show Rio's destructive prowess.)

One of our Cane Corso's is a rescue that came from an abusive situation. When we brought her home at a year old, this was her very first baby in her entire life. She grew attached to it and carried it with her everywhere. None of our other dogs will go near it. This was 2 years ago and we are now on her 3rd one. We are always sure to keep a backup of one of these babies up in the closet as an emergency backup. Not sure what it is about this baby, but it's absolutely perfect for Maia. Please don't ever stop selling this product! It holds up great to a Corso, does well in the washer and has done wonders for her mental. I'm sure we will be ordering more in the future!

Although much bigger than I thought, my small mixed breed dog loves dragging this cow around the house.

My dog destroys every plush toy she gets. This one stood the test of time, we are a few months in and while it has lost attachments, the toy is still in good shape!

My 2 voracious Portuguese Water dogs love this toy. We have had it for several months and it is not showing any signs of wear. Machine washable! Great squeaker and good size for medium and large dogs.

The world bristle are to easily coming off. After the first day I had to cut ✂️ a few strings. The first Peggy I got from you, had 3 squeaky and was more durable. It lasted over a year this one is OK but definitely not has good.

My Pitty has not been able to destroy this one yet after trying pretty hard.
