The Jive along with the now discontinued Huck, in my opinion, are the best throwable/floating toys ever made for hard chewing reteviers. Cixi is a lab who can destroy anything such as a tennis ball or a retrevier dummy in seconds. Not so with the Jive. She can misplace it and lose it but is not able to destroy it. I did not think such a product was possible but it is. Thanks for this fantastic product.
