How long should a dog toy last?
I bought my shih tzu a new dog toy the other weekend, from Pets At Home. It was a long sausage shaped soft toy, which was a dog in a super buddy costume. It had a single squeak in it and there were three different sizes available, so I chose the middle one.
Unfortunately, my dog doesn’t like plastic toys, she prefers soft squeaky ones, so I know they won’t last forever. Thing is, I kinda expected it to last longer than ten minutes!
Yep, within ten minutes, the squeak was out, fluff was all over the floor and my dog was sat in the middle of this chaos looking decidedly pleased with herself.
What a total waste of money!
I don’t mind that the toy won’t last that long. Most of her other soft squeaky toys simply lose their squeak within a few hours but at least they stay sealed up and she can keep them to shake around and play with. So I would not recommend the Super Buddy dog toy from Pets at Home, unless all you have is a mild chihuahua who just wants to cuddle it.
