Outward Hound Invincibles Orange Gecko Plush Dog Toy - Large Durable Chew-Proof Squeaky Pet Toy for Aggressive Chewers - Perfect for Playtime, Training & Indoor/Outdoor Fun

My GSP is a heavy chewer, so I have been looking EVERYWHERE for a soft toy. She immediately went for the first squeaker which was removed in a few minutes. The second one wasn't removed until the next day. The edges are a bit frayed, but it is staying together. I would really love to purchase one without a squeaker to avoid holes being torn into the top. Worth keeping around for awhile as she does love it. I also am glad to not be cleaning up stuffing all day.**UPDATE**Hello! Since this review I have a total of around nine labrador and pointer dogs running around my property at any give time and I am STILL in search of good dog toys.I have now bought about two dozen of these Invincible toys. The squeaker, on average, dies after five minutes even though it is suppose to be puncture-proof. Unlike most toys, which are shredded easily past the "broken squeaker and torn out stuffing" stage, the body of the snake holds up a lengthy period of time. Multiple tug-o-war secessions or singular dogs pulling them off to the side to chew on alone. I prefer these over rope because my dogs will swallow the pieces of rope which cause indigestion and bowel movement issues.Unfortunately I have not found anything that works but at least this has lasted a lot longer than products that are similar or higher prices.My dogs are capable of tearing through Kong toys, rubber tires, and hardened plastic toys. Toys that say "no stuffing" are torn apart like a paper towel. Those stuffed animals you slip around plastic water bottles are the worse. Unfortunately the one thing that is suppose to last, Nyla Bones, they won't touch.For balls, at least I have a combination of several items:We have several of these dog toys. For the most part they’re very durable and my dog loves to chase after them when we throw them. He hasn’t chewed them apart but his brother who comes to visit chews thru them and then he either amputates an arm or leg or leaves them hanging and I have to finish cutting them off and try to sew the end. That particular dog is very destructive and I don’t think a stuffed fabric toy can be expected to hold up to that heavy of a chewer. We like the shapes and colors of the fabric and our doggie loves the squeaker’s. The edge binding is pretty durable but not indestructible. All in all, we’ll keep buying these and just pick them up when the other dog visits.My dog loves to destroy stuff so bought him toys that claimed to be invincible. Less than 24 hours and he already has a nice hole in it. Good thing there isn't any stuffing! He's destroying it more as I write... doubt it will survive another day.Edit: It didn't! All 4 squeakers out and totally destroyed. Can't afford this for such little time of play.Not chew proof but definitely more durable than other toysSo far so good! I've been looking for a soft toy that was strong enough to withstand my 2 aussies that are both super chewers and shredders. I have bought tuffy level 8+ toys for these two and they would rip it apart in 20 mins of me opening the package. This lizard has lasted a week and still no visible rips/tears!Our Jack Russell loves most any toy really…that is until we discovered Outward Hound! She will dig thru her toy basket until she finds her OH toy. They are big, loud and last longer than any fluffy toy we have ever gotten her! She will eventually get to the squeaker but it takes her a LOT longer than any other plush toy. Highly recommend Outward Hound toys!My dog really enjoyed this toy, while it lasted. She really enjoys tearing/ripping apart her dog toys and this one lasted 15 to 20 minutes, versus 5 minutes we typically get out of other toys. If you have a dog who isn't an aggressive chewer, it would probably last much longer.Our dog loves to nibble his toys. He’s only a small terrier type but every soft toy he gets he finds the weakness and goes for it until he’s got the stuffing flying everywhere. I bought this hoping it would defeat him. He loves it and it became his favourite quite quickly. However, even the double stitching on the seems was no match for him. Within two weeks he had found a way into the stuffing and had pulled out the crispy plastic. I came down to him chewing on this plastic which isn’t ideal and is actually a little dangerous. He has had a couple of job soft toys last way way longer than this. Shame, because he really loved it while he had itDon't buy this if you have a chewer!! The old style was much much better as you could cut off bits as they got chewed, i.e. individual legs, tail, head as there was stitching at the body between these and the squeakers. My dog absolutely loves these toys but they don't last long. He chews all the black edging off, in quite a short space of time and out come the squeakers. We have to watch him very closely and cut bits off as he goes along and luckily any bits he does chew off he spits out. He now only gets one of these very very rarely, and the same goes for the snakes. Pity, a change in design that does not work.Our Beagle received this for her sixth birthday and adores it! The colours are exactly as pictured and it's soft both sides but well-stitched.Our girl no longer tears her toys apart but when she did, we stuck solely to Outward Hound ToughSeamz, worth every penny if you want to show your dog not everything is destructible!This arrived today. I, very stupidly, didn't realise that I had ordered one from U.S.A. so it took weeks to come.It is a great little thing though. My puppy loves it. He gets all 4 squeaks in his mouth and it sounds like a troupe of penguins lol. I have no idea how long it is going to last but, truthfully, I don't care. You cant buy a toy for a dog and think it cant be destroyed. As long as your dog loves it for as long as it lasts then that's fine with me. Its given the dog lots of enjoyment. My pup has been playing with it for a couple of days now and there is nothing loose or fraying. That isn't bad for him cos he usually can take things apart within a couple of hours. So overall, yeah, I am pleased with thisour dog loves it and it is standing up to his ''attentions'' far better than other toys we have had. The squeakers are long lasting and are still in tact and in situ after over a week ( a record as some toys we have had have only lasted a few minutes!). The noise can be a little irritating ot us humans, but the compromise is letting gecko have an early night, so we can enjoy a quiet evening!Also loved the outward hound snake, but the gecko is a compact shape, and less hazardous when our dog tosses it into the air.RECOMMENDED!
