I just purchased our 2nd small Mingo toy. The first one last far longer than any other toy we've had. The two schnauzers love it and taunt each other with it daily. It gets pulled, tugged, carried, stepped on, left outside and rained on, washed, and still keeps going. I only had to replace the first one after our lab FINALLY succeeded in tearing it up. They are tough, wonderful toys and West Paw is the only place I buy dog toys from now.
