ZippyPaws Burrow Squeaky Hide and Seek Plush Dog Toy, Hedgehog Den

My two Yorkies absolutely LOVE this toy! It's nice because there are enough pieces that they can share without bickering over who gets to play with it. The puzzle of removing the hedgehogs kept them entertained for about two hours before they finally figured out that the little guys could come out, and now they're pros at removing them. My boy likes to sit and gnaw on the hedgehog feet, while my girl enjoys corralling them into her bed or burying them in the couch pillows (this is the only toy she has ever tried to hide), and then digging them up an hour later so we can play fetch with the critters. The hedgehogs seem sturdily made and they have a huge squeaker that takes up the entire body My two Yorkies absolutely LOVE this toy!

The hedgehogs seem sturdily made and they have a huge squeaker that takes up the entire body, unlike most toys that have a tiny squeaker hidden in stuffing. The materiel of the hedgehogs and their "home" is soft and has so far been very durable, especially considering how much attention this toy has received! This is by far my dogs' favorite toy and I will definitely be getting some of the other animals in the future! … more

This was my very first purchase of one of the Zippy Paws burrow toys and let me say, it is well worth the money!! If your dog is smart, playful and curious, they will absolutely love playing with this. I have a 2 1/2 yr old Pomchi and this has become his fave toy now!!! It is so funny to watch him try to get the hedgehogs out. He tends to be the type that will chew stuffing out to get to the squeakers so to avoid having him do that, I only let him play with it when I have the time to interact with him because it’s more of a “game” than just a toy! He loves getting each one out and will hold it in his mouth and squeak it over n over. All I have to do to keep him from wanting to tear it up is This was my very first purchase of one of the Zippy Paws burrow toys and let me say, it is well worth the money!!

He loves getting each one out and will hold it in his mouth and squeak it over n over. All I have to do to keep him from wanting to tear it up is squeak the other two that he still needs to retrieve and he will drop the one he’s squeaking and run over to me to dig another one out. That gives me time to grab the one he dropped and replace it once he gets the second one out, thus never giving him the chance to tear it up because he’s constantly focused on pulling them out so he can squeak them! This system has worked great and I put it up once we’re done playing with it so he doesn’t tear the stuffings out and become disinterested in it. By keeping him constantly trying to dig one out by replacing it once he’s gotten his next one out, I feel it distracts him just enough to where he doesn’t want to tear it up. He just loves this interactive toy and I plan to buy a couple more! Best part: it’s machine washable! I haven’t washed it yet but I plan to put it in a lingerie bag and I feel confident that it will wash up very nicely. … more

I have a Min Pin and these little hedgehogs fit perfectly inside his mouth and he loves to run around the house making them squeak. He likes to hide the little hedgehogs behind the bedroom door and behind the desk Etc. He's had them for a few weeks now and he hasn't torn them up like his other plush squeaky toys. And they haven't lost their squeakiness . I take the Hedgehog Den and stuff it full of his other toys too sometimes. It is usually one of the first toys he takes out of his basket that has all of his toys in it. And he has a lot of toys. He has played with them inside and outside so they are getting a little bit dirty. I thought about throwing the little hedgehogs in the washer and see I have a Min Pin and these little hedgehogs fit perfectly inside his mouth and he loves to run around the house making them squeak.

If the Hedgehogs don't make it through the washer I guess I can buy the replacement hedgehogs. … more

This toy is my dog's favorite! She loves to play with the “den” and will play catch with that and shake it. She loves to play with the hedgehogs too and she will throw them in the air and then chase after them. She’s about 30 pounds, so a perfect size for her and her mouth. She’s missing a few teeth and can still pull the hedgehogs out (might take her longer than other dogs). It’s her go to toy and 3 months later she’s playing with it as I’m writing. She’s a very gentle chewer, so not sure how it would hold up with dogs who are tougher on their toys.

I bought this toy because I thought our puppy would like to do the find and seek burrow part of it. She got the little hedgehogs out in about 3 minutes and then loved hiding them on her own. She spent hours burying them around the house which was fun because she has never hid her toys before. She then just ran around carrying the little hedgehog den. So even though it didn't work the way it was advertised, it has become one of her favorite toys so that is well worth the purchase.

I went on a dog toy shopping spree and bought this along with about 10 other toys basically because all of the great reviews. My 5 month old Aussiedoodle puppy picked this one out of the Chewy box immediately and she went running to keep it from her big sheepdog brother. She has been playing with it for two days straight and loves it when I put the squirrels back in so she can try to get them out again. It's so weird because I don't really understand what in her dog brain makes it so appealing but it's her favorite for sure.

My puppy loved playing with this toy. As with other stuffed animal toys, he eventually destroyed all three hedgehogs. But he had hours of fun playing with this toy every evening after dinner. He would grab his toy and beg one of us to sit on the floor to play with him. He loved when we would "hide" the hedgehogs and he would quickly pull them out, one at a time and throw them in our lap!

My pooch was in love with this toy right out of the box. He carried it all around the house, out into our fenced yard, even to the car for our rides. It's fun to watch him shake it to try and get the hedgehogs out. Then he'll carry one of those everywhere he goes. If he's in another room all I have to do is squeak one of them and he comes running. It's a great buy.

My little shih-tzu puppies never get tired of this toy. I can stuff the hedgehogs inside the burrow and they always enjoy digging them out. They come to me several times every day and beg me to throw the hedgehogs for them to chase and retrieve them. (Be sure to squeak the hedgehog before you throw it !) No other toy comes close to this one for FUN....also very sturdy.

All puzzle toys like this are a hit. This one is special because it's like a ball when the critters are inside so you can toss it and it will roll quite far. Would be better if the hedgehogs had arms and legs (something floppy for dog to pull on), but I am able to stuff some other leggy critters in there so all in all we give it a big thumbs up.
