Outward Hound Hide A Squirrel Squeaky Puzzle Plush Dog Toy

My Aussie/Heeler mix is very intelligent, which can get her in trouble when she gets bored. She loves chipmunks so I decided to get her this puzzle toy. We have other puzzles from Outward Hound that we really enjoy, but once she eats the treats, she is no longer interested which gives her less than a minute of entertainment. She loves to pull the chipmunks out of the log. Then she will lay on the ground and squeak them. When she wants to pull them out again, she carries the log over to us and we refill it. She will play with them for hours. She likes them so much she even carried one on our walk today, replacing her beloved frisbee. I would suggest you supervise your dog during play if they tend My Aussie/Heeler mix is very intelligent, which can get her in trouble when she gets bored.

My big older Aussie also treats those little squirrels like babies. And she has never had a litter. Oh but she loves gathering them all together, she frequently carries them through the house and toss them in the air to signal her excitement. I have had the large one for 3 years. The little squirrels don't squeak much anymore but they are tough and well played with without being torn. She destroys toys to get the squeaker in everything else. I have machine washed and dried the squirrels and they come out fine. I just purchased another set for a friends sweet rambunctious pit bull.

I have a large Frenchie, whose sole purpose seems to be seek and destroy. He tore holes in the “tree” part of the toy within five minutes, and we bought the “Ginormous” size. Chewy’s customer service is the best around, so they offered a refund. The little squirrels are just the right size for my Boston Terrier, and she loves tossing them around. If you have a larger dog, skip this one, but it is perfect for smaller pups.

My dog loves it, but it would be cool if they made another version with tougher material for the log part. My doberman gets really excited when playing with this and he starts chewing the log pretty roughly, and he'd be able to destroy it in a couple minutes if I'd let him. It would be more fun for him if I was able to let him have at it a bit more :)

My dog loves this toy, hide treats in it keeps her occupied for along time. I recommend having 5 squirrels in stead of 3 as your dog is going to get smarter, and will figure it out. O! My dog is only 13 lbs. though. Our Vet. Doctor this will keep there mind occupied, which is good for your dog mental health. Have fun, and enjoy!

Our Boston terrier puppy loves this toy. He loves to pounce on it, hear the squeakers, chew on it, stick his nose in the treehouse, pull the squirrels out. He loves for us to toss the squirrels or the treehouse so he can chase them. But The treehouse only lasted a month before he chewed a hole in it and stuffing started to come out.

My dog, a 13-pound Boston Terrier, tore this open after two days and started eating the fuzzy stuffing (she loves eating fuzz, unfortunately). Until that point it was a very promising toy. She was very interested in it and was nicely challenged by the task of getting all the squirrels out. I know this is not intended to be a chew toy, but it wasn’t chewed all that much. I would have expected it to hold up for more than a couple of days, especially with such a small dog.

Within five days my 9-month old French bulldog ruined the "tree house" and six-squirrels (I purchased three-extras). With the squirrels, he quickly took off their ears and then made an opening to the filler. The tree house took longer, but he also opened that up. Maybe for a small, light chewing dog this toy would hold up.

The day they got this toy we thought it was a dud. Neither of our dogs seemed to know what to do with it. The next day one of them figured out how to take the squirrels out and now they both love it. They throw the squirrels in the air and pounce on them, they play fetch with them and they love looking for them in the tree.

These squirrels became my dachshund's favorite toy right out of the box. They are just the right size, and amazingly she didn't immediately try to eviscerate them to remove their squeakers. One is still fully intact, two have finally lost their squeakers, and one has also lost a tail. But for Lena, this is some kind of record! She will get new squirrels for Christmas!! I definitely recommend this toy!
