My two-year-old mutt, Rudy, destroys every toy we get him. He loves playing with toys, but is a rough-tough-tumble kind of dog, so we've had a really hard time finding toys that last longer than a few hours with him. I ordered the Hurley for him and it lasted about a week--a lot longer than most toys, but not quite as durable as I'd like to see. He chewed through part of the tip of Hurley and then was chipping away at the rest of it. It's a shame. He really loved playing with Hurley so we were sad to have to get rid of it.
