Holds up to chewing, but squeaker didn't last.
Pattern Name: Pumpkin, Size: Large
This pumpkin dog toy for aggressive chewers has held up to the chewing, but the squeaker, which they boasted as indestructible didn't hold up. It lasted maybe 12 hours and now it no longer squeaks which takes away a lot of the fun for my dog.

Bully breed has not destroyed the toy yet
Pattern Name: Apple, Size: Large
Ordered this toy for my Doberman and beagle who destroy every toy they are ever given. The green rope on top of the apple toy lasted for about 24 hours, and the squeaker inside the toy lasted for about 3 days. But the overall body of the toy is still in tact and it has been over a month now. The dogs still play with it despite the squeaker not working. The body of the toy is definitely durable if you have a bully breed. Both my dogs really enjoy it. Edit: 7 months later and this thing is still going strong. My doby loves it. It is tough as nails. Changed review to 5 stars.
