About This Item

Details

  • This tug toy is not intended as a chew toy—its design is thinner, so it will not hold up to strong constant chewing.
  • Promotes dental health and healthy exercise through play.
  • Provides hours of enjoyment for both you and your pup—ideal for interactive play and bonding with your buddy.
  • Can be also used as a training tool for your furry friend.
  • When tug play is finished, the tug should be put away so that regular chewing is not encouraged.

Questions & Answers

What is the difference between this rug and the rug maXX? And what is the weight difference?

Answer by Chewy • Apr 16, 2020
This toy is ideal for medium-size dogs who are tough tuggers. The MaXX is made especially for games of tug-of-war with large dogs.

King is part pitbull and golden retriever every toy that I bought for him he has chewed up in a couple weeks. This toy hasn’t evenput a dent in it very durable he likes playing with it. We play tug-of-war all the time. I couldn’t tell you how many Kong Pole rings we have went through. This is truly worth your money if your dog chooses up his toys. Plus, if he does chew itup, you send it to the company who made it with $9.75 and they replace it free who does that. But you won’t have to return it cause he won’t chew it.

As advertised this toy barely has a scratch from my 50lb pitt/Shepard mix playing with it pretty much every day for a year. It's a touch small though so watch your fingers when playing with excited pups.

Smaller then I thought

Thought I was replacing a favorite toy of my dogs. The 9 inch for some reason is way thinner then the 10 inch I purchased before.

We bought this and another Goughnuts toys for our dog on our vet’s recommendation because he chews up toys so quickly. He hasn’t put a dent in this yet and we’ve had it several months. It’s not our dog’s favorite toy, but he will play tug with it enthusiastically. It’s really heavy so not a good choice for a small dog. I worry about it getting tossed into something indoors so it’s probably more of an outdoor toy. Would be perfect for a big dog who’s an aggressive chewer.

Very tough

My Staffordshire Terrier loves to lay there and chew My Belgian Malinois loves to chew it and Shake It. The Oblong size and weight make it fun to shake

Great toy!

My dog loves this and it holds up to his chewing! Could only be improved with a squeaker.

Very durable!

It’s bouncy when thrown which is also an added bonus but overall it’s a tug toy that’s durable and won’t snag my dogs teeth!

So far so good. I have a 44 lb Australian cattle dog mix and she destroys everything fairly easily, even tug toys or chew toys for aggressive chewers. So far it hasn’t shown any signs of damage and we play with it every day. I’ll update this review if and when it begins to show wear and tear.
