Dog Games Seamsters Small Weave Bone


My Golden gave up after 5 minutes
Saw this at Unleashed and was intrigued by a toy that had some rawhide (which my dog loves) combined with a rubber to keep him busy. My dog loves rawhides but he can power through a big one (7") in about 30-45 minutes.

The concept is good, but my dog lost interest very quickly. Also, it is messy to "refill" the rawhide- you have to soak it to make it soft, thread it through the holes, and then wait for it to dry.
A dog-specific toy - four and a half stars!
My wife and I have a 25lb whippet-shepherd mix who really likes to chew, and is rather smart by dog standards. These two characteristics often don't mix well, which has led us on a search for the best of the best puzzle chew toys. I would like to thank Kyjen for sending me a copy of this toy in exchange for an honest review!

As soon as I took this out of the package and our pup smelled rawhide, her little tail started to wag! It's one of her favorite things, and despite there being a relatively small amount of rawhide strung on to the bone, it didn't take away from her butt wriggling in excitement!

BUILD/QUALITY
Well, it's nice to see that this is made of natural rubber. Not only does it have that nice vanilla-like smell, but you also don't have to worry about your dog swallowing potentially-toxic pieces of their toys! Now, I want to refer back to the title of my review in reference to the quality and how long this will last your dog. If your dog is an...
Good but not durable enough for my dog!
Good product and Tilly enjoys playing with it, trying to get as much rawhide off as possible. However, the plastic is not durable enough for her strong teeth, and she has eaten away at much of the green plastic, trying to get the hidden rawhide parts. It was fun for her, but we can't allow her to play with it since she's eating the plastic off.

HuggleHounds Knotties Lobsta Dog Toy - Large


lasted almost 2 hours
Darling toy, but my 8 month old catahoula managed to eat one tentacle and rip off one claw in the first 2 hours of playing. 2 days later she hasn't ripped of any more of it, but I was disappointed to see that an 'expensive' toy didn't last any longer than the cheap ones. Not in my budget to buy more for the cuteness factor, although it has that, and will not buy again for durability.
Rhodesian Ridgeback still hasn't killed it...
I love these toys. I have a very 'exuberant' dog who plays hard and rough. These toys take it and he loves them. The body has a 'honker' and each claw has a squeaker. They get left out in the rain, played tug with, shaken and generally abused by my Ridgeback (~90lbs of pure muscle and energy) and really hold up. I also have the octopus, and the moose. The lobster looks new at about 4 months. The moose is going strong after nearly 8 months. He unstuffed the octopus, however, since all 8 legs have squeakers even that toy is still fun...
Durable
This is the 2nd HuggleHounds lobster I've purchased for my dog. He absolutely loves this toy and it is very durable. It lasted for 6 months, with my dog playing and chewing on it everyday.

JW Pet Company Crackle Heads Canvas Monkey Dog Toy, Large


FANTASTIC TOY
My Siberian Husky just loves this toy. I ended up putting in a larger squeaker that is puncture resistant and I have had to mend it a couple of times but it is well worth it. He tosses in the air and catches. Durable canvas material, only problem was unfinished seams and he pulled the little bit of stuffing from the lips. JW Pet makes toys that are durable and fun.
Gone in 60 minutes!
Maltese had it dismantled in less than an hour! Still waiting for someone to create a toy that lasts more than a few days.
jw crackle monkey
Seems to be a relatively durable dog toy. My Aussie tears apart everything and this one is 2 months old and still looks pretty new.
