We bought this toy at the LL Bean outlet mall in Victor NY while on vacation (as a peace offering) to give to our power chewers back at home. (They couldn't come with us on this vacation). This toy has lived up to all the favorable reviews. Who ever designed this toy had a real insite into the mindset of the power chewer. We have two dogs, a lab mix and Aussie shepherd and it has been three days of sheer joy...and peace. Our dog toys have a life expectancy of minutes, not days. This toy has finally occupied our dogs for hours of tug, fetch, chew and violent chewing. I feel like I have reached a personal goal as a dog owner by finally finding the best darn toy that can't be destroyed by our dogs. My heartfelt gratitude to the designers of this toy..."Thanks" just doesn't cover it!
