goDog Checkers Elephant Squeaky Plush Dog Toy, Chew Guard Technology - Gray, Large

FYI this is the SMALL size, not the large rooster. It is surprisingly tough, lasts a long time, even with hard chewers, which is a big plus. It's also very cute, and my dogs have been playing with it for a long time, which makes it a great value.

Cons- polyfil, eyes.Pros- tough, long lasting.We have 2 golden doodles (3&5 yr olds) are tough on toys, but these are nearly indestructible once the polyfil, eyes and squeakers are removed. We've ordered 4 over the years because it's proven to be their favorite. See photo of the four next to each other. The new one came in today July 14, 2024, next December 2023, next Xmas 2022, the rope is all thats left of the 1st from 2021. I hit it with lawnmower. I just ran a test and threw all 4 in a pile in front of my dogs. Funny enough, Lincoln smelled em all, and picked up the oldest one (just a rope now) and took it to his spot!

I got this for my, not super destructive, German shepherd in December. She has chewed and ripped and tugged on this thing everyday. When she tugs on it, I can hear it rip and tear, and yet there is not any visible damage. And it's really cute

My reasons for loving this toy: first off, my purchase of the Elephant arrived a day early; secondly, the toy is adorable and very well made. There are 3 “squeakers” in the body. One is a round ball located in the stomach, and two smaller “discs” in each of the feet (at least that is where I presumed them to be) which trigger “PLAY time!” There is also “crackle” in the ears. I felt a little remorse handing over this cutie, but that was the point of purchase; I hoped it would last a while. Our 1yr old GoldLab mix has been known to chew apart a three ring toy that was very hard rubber as well as removing the “hair” of tennis balls, popping and chewing the ball into bits. His toy ropes end up as shreds throughout the house. That said, I wasn’t sure this toy would stand up, but I had hope. Enter the elephant…..adorable! And doomed…he snatched it and happily trotted off to his bed. Within 5min, he had pulled off the tail, and within 10min he had ripped off a foot to reveal one squeaker (seams gave way). By a few hours later, “El” had been thoroughly de-feeted and unarmed, and I recovered the squeakers for my own piece of mind. Now, you might think this a sad/bad review, but it isn’t. I have learned that there is a difference in being a rugged “chewer” and being a neurotic “shredder”. I have no regrets with the purchase nor that it had no chance with our pup; without the squeakers and stuffing, our pup still carries his buddy happily around the house. He likes the crinkle in the ears and hasn’t torn those open (which surprises me). It’s his new friend. I do believe this toy to be a very good investment esp for most “normal” pups...the fabric itself has held up well, good size, cute buddy, and happy fun for a pet. I like it too….in fact, there was a hesitation as to if I wanted to keep it myself. lol PS-I have not contacted the company as I cannot fault the product; some pups are just master shredders. ;D (Photos show Rio's destructive prowess.)

I wanted to be able to leave a 5* review and had high hopes for this. It is not indestructible. Has lasted 2 days unfortunately. Stitching is reinforced but Not for heavy chewers. Super cute interactive, good sized toy though. Would last if I didnt have a husky probably.

This particular "GO DOG" toy is our 20 lb. Shetland Sheepdog's absolute favorite. He has multiple "GO DOG" toys, yet the chicken is the one he constantly carries around & wants to play with...especially when he wants to be a bit rough. The extra long legs makes it perfect for the game of tug-of-war. He has 2 of this colorful sturdy toy. They are kept in 2 different areas of the house. This brand is the one we've found that works the best for our boy. We definitely recommend them. Their value, multiple colors, sound quality of the squeakers and safety make this brand a great choice. I certainly recommend this brand.

I had this brand of toy for previous dogs and they held up great and dogs loved the wrinkle sound in the ears. But our new dog is the pickiest thing ever. He won’t touch it. He is not a chewer but the dogs I have had before had a hard time chewing this brand of toy up. So not the toys fault at all just I have a weird dog!

Powerful, but ear piercing! It works well, but the noise it makes is super loud and high.
