My Golden Retriever loves to chew..and carry things in his mouth for long periods of time. This toy has been the best one that I have EVER owned for any of my pets. He has not been able to chew it up..or even put a dent in it, and believe me he tries. We took it on vacation and he loved going after it in the water. The soft yet indestructible material is great. I dont worry that he is going to chip a tooth or cut his gums...Cant say it enough ..wonderful product!!!
