KONG Cozie Marvin the Moose Plush Dog Toy

Marvin has been my huskies best friend since before his eyes opened. My guy was a single puppy born to his mother who we rescued and Marvin was specifically purchased to be his mate. While the original lost all its stuffing to a puppy being a puppy he still cares for it in a gentle way, and a few years ago we got the largest one which he loved. Right now we have about 4 Marvin's total, plus a stash and every time they are on sale I grab one because I can't bear risking that they might stop making it and he would be without his best friend. His favorite thing in the warmer season is to bring out all his Marvin's and place them on his cot and around the yard too, bringing them in at night Marvin has been my huskies best friend since before his eyes opened.

If one gets left out and it starts to rain he will panic until we get it back inside and if it is wet will stand guard by the dryer until it's out. Sometimes he even gives his Marvin's a cookie. While he loves all his stuffed toys and treats them all well Marvin is his all time favorite ❤ … more

These toys use to be great. They use to be made from thick fire hose material. Now they are buying much thinner fire hose. You know, that same fake thin stuff other companies are using just so they can say they use fire hose material, but it is as thin as any other cloth and just as easy to tear, ya that stuff. Their name is no longer living up to the reputation they built. Apparently they no longer really care about that reputation. They think they can just float on the history of their reputation and not deliver quality products anymore in this economy. Good luck with that. My dog use to take months to destroy one of these. They now take less than five minutes. The quality you use to get with These toys use to be great. They use to be made from thick fire hose material. Now they are buying much thinner fire hose.

I am now having better luck with other brands but if they are going to pull what they have decided to pulled here, I’m just going to buy my own fire hose and start making my own dog toys because it will be less of a waste of money. … more

I purchased this Kong Cozie for my Senior Lab last Christmas. Cozies are not meant for aggressive chewers or dogs that are tough on toys. They are meant for the dog that wants to cuddle their toys. They are super soft, well made and adorable. My pup loves them and they are always her first choice from her toy chest. This moose is super cute and has been going strong in my house for a year now - still looks like brand new. He also washes well - toss in a washer in a lingerie bag and then low in the dryer.

To preface this review. We have had for 2x the amount of time the smaller Ali the Aligator Kong plush toy and it is still going strong. The moose antlers were the first to go and I'm not certain if it is because of a stitching issue that he found and worked on or what but he had surgically removed the antlers within the first week. Might be better for older dogs, will not get again. But will continue to get the Kong Aligator plush toy.

LiLy, my 2 1/2 year old Golden Retriever, has thoroughly enjoyed having Marvin to play with. She loved him even more when she squeezed him gently but his squeaker stop squeaking shortly after the first day or two. LiLy has a very soft mouth and maybe I can pick up a new squeaker at the dollar store and try to give Marvin a heart transplant even if for some reason it was originally located in his butt. Look at his nose. I think that is where I would insert his new squeaker if it is possible. But LiLy will still love playing with him until that time comes no matter what.

Our one-year puppy loves stuffed toys and we have bought several from Chewy that lasted way longer than this toy. I bought thinking since it was KONG it would last awhile. She had most of the filling out within 30 minutes of me giving it to her. And the description says "less filling". I am not sure what they consider less because there was a lot and it was everywhere.

This toy is very tough and my dog who loves to shred her toys with great vigor has been unable to breach it yet she totally loves it. Only drawback is the faux fur on the outside which she pulls out. It gets debris all over and sometimes stuck between her teeth. Otherwise great!!!

Our dogs were thrilled to get these toys. They just love to hold them, lick them, chew them a bit. Our Shephard mix tries to hog them all but we tell her only one at a time. I thought these would be gone the first day but so far they have lasted and still are being enjoyed. Thank you so much.

I thought this might be the toy to last more than ten minutes with my lab mix. My boy tore it up within minutes and removed the squeaker and stuffing with non-surgical precision. I picked up stuffing for several days because he proudly carried the flat carcass around the house.

I’ve got a German Shepherd puppy that is hard on toys. He’s had this a few weeks and hasn’t been able to tear it up yet! The size of perfect for him (80 lbs at this point) but it is significantly bigger than the one that is one size smaller so keep that in mind if you don’t have a big dog.
