Our pack enjoys this toy so much we've ordered it in every colour and then some. Pictured here, Walt the Dachshund is giving it a gentle lift in his JAWS OF DEATH. Walt identifies as a heavy chewer. He is a 1 year old and has a healthy body size and image (about12 pounds, plus or minus a good poop). His brothers also enjoy it. The toy I mean. Get your mind out of the gutter. Big Brother Fudgie, an energetic 10 year old Yorkie who plays an insatiable game of catch, is an iffy 8 pounds with a small, narrow snout, and carries it well. Big but-not-as Big (well, if by big we mean age, not size, which we do, mean age, because Bronx is older than Walt but younger than Fudge, by about 6 years if I'm not mistaken, and no, no follow up questions. Bronx is physically big (16lb shih-tzu) but in spirit he's nothing but a sweet widdle guy, pure love and playfulness. You wouldn't guess it now, but Bronx was the runt of his litter and is visually impaired. He's clumsy but confident, he can't track a toy through the air, but once Walt or Fudgie has it, Bronx is on the hunt and the real game begins! Bronx may not see well but he gets around just fine. He's been a great support to Walt, who also has a visual difference. One of Walt's eye sockets is too small, a congenital birth defect that leaves him blind in that eye. Walt's eye may not see but he's just one of the guys - he loves white cheddar popcorn, racing around the kitchen island, and plotting against his arch nemesis, who lives inside my MIRRORED jewelry hutch. In short: these are good buys, good value. The neon makes them easy to see against a white snow backdrop, so retrieval (because dogs always stop playing one round before you do, making you the idiot who has to go pick up the ball he just threw) is relatively painless, depending on which shoes you wore. I've bought multiples. You might too. ***Full disclosure: Walt actually has a Big, Bigger, Biggest Brother, Herbie, also a shih-tzu, and the 12 year old/ 12lb insouciant leader of our pack. He was omitted from the review because Herbie does not engage with this toy through no fault of the toy's. Herbie is simply too cool to play with toys. Ever since he first became a Big Brother (RIP Gertie, we miss you girl), Herbie stopped his immature habits and henceforth never did look at another toy in quite the same way. Herbie is above toys, yes, but he also exists in a plane beyond toys. It's a lifestyle choice and perhaps a spiritual belief of sorts. But as it is universally applied to toys of each and every kind, without fail, it shows no poor reflection on, or indeed any reflection at all, upon this particular toy. So I thought it unfair to include. Except in footnote. Although I've indicated the footnote with an asterisk since I'm too lazy to look up how to do a little number. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
