Review on TUFFY- World'S Tuffest Soft Dog Toy- Ultimate Gear Ring - Red Paw-Squeakers - Multiple Layers. Made Durable, Strong & Tough.Interactive Play (Tug,Toss & Fetch).Machine Washable & Floats by Jared Surabhi

After reading the negative reviews, it became apparent that a lot of people hand this toy to their dog and let them use it as a chew toy. It is not meant for that. It is a throwing toy. It is a tug o war toy. If you give it to your dog to gnaw on, it won't last a day. If you play fetch with it and put it aside when you are done, it will last quite a while. My pit mix loves to play tug of war with it. It holds up extremely well to his abuse, but it won't last an hour if I forget to take it from him when we are done. Bottom line is that these things are awesome and will hold up well for what they are meant to do. They won't last forever no matter how you play, but they are tough. If you are looking for a give and forget chew toy, get them a bone, or one of those black rubber thingies.
