I purchased this at a local dog boutique because it had the guarantee on it. And let's be honest- I'm totally fed up with paying $15 for a dog toy because they say it's really durable only to have it destroyed within 20 minutes. We have had this toy for around 3 months now and there isn't even a tooth mark on it!! I have two pitts and they play with it almost every day and you would never know it by looking at it. It also washes easily which is a plus. I HIGHLY suggest giving this toy a try. I'd give this more stars if I could.
