He has had more fun tearing the remnants apart than the toy itself

This product lasted no more than 20 minutes before my Lab had both squeakers torn out of the "rope" and destroyed.  The problem is that the "rope" is much closer to being a yarn.  It has little tensile strength. I had expected something much more durable with a robust polyester fiber.  He has had more fun tearing the remnants apart than the toy itself.

My dog LOVES this toy. Sadly, it only took him 2 days to rip the face off and pull out the squeaker. The rope came out, and he's uninterested in that, but for some reason, loves the corpse of this toy. I don't pretend to understand it, he just prefers this ripped up toy over the others, even the in-tact squeaking ones.

The thing feels like a solid rubber tire.  It felt a little oily and dusty when it arrived so I washed it before giving it to our (assumed) Rhodesian Ridgeback mix.

The last two toys he had lasted a combined 20 minutes before being ripped into quarter sized pieces.

It's obviously not nearly as fun as a toy he can rip apart. For the first 16 minutes he kept giving me this "Really?" look and then went back to chewing on it. Then he would pick it up and pace around with it and go back to chewing.

At 16 minutes he started giving me big doggie grins.

He chewed on it for an hour solid. Still no marks on it. Then I took him for a 15 minute walk. He's worn out.

I think we have a keeper.

My puppy had the head torn off and tail opened so he could get the squeakers out in the space of a couple hours. The good news is, he still likes to chew on the body as it is floppy, so that's a plus. I wish the material was slightly more difficult for him to chew apart but oh well; after all he has yet to come across a toy with a squeaker that he can't tear out in a day or so. Even Kong toys don't last more than a couple days around my 6 mo. old lab mix.

My dog doesn't destroy his toys. After one fetch session, both squeaking components fell out of the holes and are rattling around uselessly inside the ball. The ball still works, but the squeak advertised won't last long.

I got this for my rabbit, it arrived today. He was super excited when I gave it to him, however the next time I looked in to check on him to see if you was playing with it, he had already destroyed it! It was no longer a ball, but a heap of twigs! I'd say he had it for maybe 3 hours before it was destroyed. But at least he had fun while it lasted!!

The part that makes sparks broke off after 4 hrs of play time, but he didn't seem to mind much. It's a blast without it!

Zoe loves bee especially the unusual squeaker and that it fits in her mouth perfectly but we have to ration her access a bit as she is so destructive of her toys although this one lasts longer than most

My pup, Remy, loves to destroy toys. His favorite thing to do is to rip out the stuffing/squeaker and leave the "skin" as a trophy. I was hoping this toy would be a little more sturdy given the "crinkle" effect. Remy loved it, but it only lasted about 45 minutes before he destroyed it.

Our almost 3 year old grandson loves taking apart and putting this back together

My son loves his back-hoe that grandpa gave him for his 2nd birthday. The small components come apart, and like a previous review said this is NOT the toy for digging in the dirt, but it is a fun "inside toy" for children who aren't extremely rough with their toys.  The components do come off more easily than they go on, so my son is frequently asking for help putting it back together, but he still enjoys playing with it.

The little guy who got this loves taking things apart, so in a role reversal we let him put it together. Great idea! There was more learning in that experience than in the playing, which he enjoys.

The track is a little loose-fitting at spots, but that's why duct tape and scissors are around (let the biggest kids do that part). Yet apart from that, this thing is fun for the movement-minded kids and has enough stuff going on to keep them away from the tv for hours, if they have some imagination.

I think all toys like this are faaar better for kids' brains and hands than any video game or movie, so let's hear it for things that move and can be played with, and especially put together by the kids.

Don't sell the little ones short: they can do lots of things we might not at first think they're capable of. No way to know until you ask them and watch, and help if needed.

And if they're good at that, then it's time to let them teach YOU how to assemble stuff from Ikea!

My daughter is actually having more fun knocking this thing over than playing with all the bells and whistles.

My dog destroys all toys I'd eve give her, but this guy is still alive and squeaks in some places even after several months of torture. I am impressed

I just got this for my Buddy.  He's a large 75 lb Lab mix.  I was expecting the jumbo size to be a little bigger, but it will do.  My dog is pretty destructive when it comes to toys.  Within the first 2 minutes, he had already ripped one of the squirrels ears off.  So to make the toy last longer, I'm only giving him one squirrel at a time and supervising play time with it.  He seems more interested in the tree trunk.  I was hoping the holes in the tree would be a little bigger for him to fit his head in there, but for safey reason, I guess it's better that he can't fit his whole head in there.  What if it got stuck while I was at work?  He has been trying to rip the tree trunk apart but hasn't been able to do that yet.  He loves to carry the tree trunk and thrash it around.  He seems happy and so am I.  I'm giving it 4 stars because the squirrel lasted only a couple of minutes.  Otherwise, this seems like a really fun toy for him.

Magnus is obsessed with this toy. He picked it up at Petsmart. He loves it so much that it doesn't leave his side. Today he destroyed it. I took the broken pieces away. I wish it was made of stronger material

And he knew what it was he got very happy and started playing with it right a way maybe it reminded him of a toy he had in the shelter
