I have a 1 year old dacshund who loves toys that he can really chew on. I was kind of worried that he would lose interest in a toy that he wouldnt be able to destroy (like all his others), but i was totally wrong. He loves it so much and can't get enough of it.. (he even slept with it the first night <3). I strongly recommend this for anyone who has a dog who likes to get a good bit a chew-action in with their toys. Not only does this seem like it will last Archie a while, but Ive heard theyre great for big dogs as well.
