Outward HoundLatex-Free Big Squeak Hedgehog Dog Toy

The first one of these I ever got her was at Petco on sale for $1 - best $1 ever!The reviews are right, though. The toy doesn't last forever and it's not good for aggressive chewers. In my opinion, however, that doesn't make it a bad toy. Here's why:Aggressive chewers comments: Getting my sister's French Bulldog a stuffed toy (that's shredded in 5 minutes), compared to my Pitbull who does not tear up any toys, but is a stronger chewer when it comes to bones. My pup does not tear this up at all, but my sister's dog would. My point is: Don't get your dog a soft toy if your dog ruins soft toys.Regarding the not long-lasting comments: the honking noise mechanism inside eventually pops inside the hole, rendering it honkless. Ours lasted about 6 months. It's pretty much impossible to fix unless you want to trouble yourself to fix it for 1 good honk each fix. I would, but I do also have a job to get to. My dog does still carry it around in it's noiseless state, but she doesn't play with it with the same enthusiasm.How did I resolve this? I bought her 5 😂 She's only on her second, but I decided to stock it because they were on sale for $5.10 - I don't think I will get rid of any of them. I will just let her play with them on rotation until they fall apart.Besides all that, my dog just simply loves this toy. I have never seen her so happy & playful with a toy. I can't promise this for your dog, as I can only tell you about mine.We even have a "Sheepy" song.[I have not been paid or given free Sheeps - my Sweet Pea just really loves her Sheepy]

The noise it makes is so weird but my dog loves it. It’s not a traditional squeak. The size is perfect for her and she loves the rubber type texture of stuff so she chews it constantly. We play fetch with it or just squeeze it for fun because of the weird noise. It’s super cute and fun to play with so I’ll probably buy another!

We've had this for about a week, and this is much higher quality than the flimsy oinker pigs I bought before. Those lasted about an hour, max. It's also a lot smaller than those. Be sure to check the dimensions of this toy because I wouldn't give it to a large dog. For what it is though, I expect that the noise maker will at one point come loose, with any decent play. Definitely supervise play with this toy. My dog is on a special diet for a while, so she can't play with her usual treat dispenser toys so much right now. This toy is stimulating enough that it is keeping her interest. She even took it outside on her potty break and then brought it back in, because she didn't want to leave it unattended! I'll probably order another one.

I bought this Outward Hound dog toy for my dog Mickey who was turning 5 years old. I've purchased a number of their products before and have always been pleased with the quality and the long lasting benefit for the price of their products. As I'd never bought a "hard" toy, I read all the reviews and saw many said they were great for their aggressive chewing dog. My 25 pound Lhasa Apso sat next to me on the couch excitedly chewing away on the new Hedgehog toy. He had chewed through the toy within three hours!! I was right next to him, so please don't say I wasn't watching him. I loved your small soft owl, duck, pig, fox and others. This one, well it is just not worth it.

We go through A LOT of dog toys at my dog based business. The grunting pigs are super cute, but they are also super fragile. It is incredibly easy to dislodge the squeaker. (Grunter?) These are certainly not robust chew toys, but the squeaker is about 30% better at staying put than that of the pigs. It's also smaller, so it's easier for the smaller dogs to play with. These are a new favorite!Update: August, 2024 I bought an orange hedgehog. Amazon won't let me review that separately so I had to add to my sheep review. The orange hedgehog is only 3 stars. It is made of a harder plastic than the bear and the sheep. It also has a standard squeaker, not the grunting of the bear and sheep. But harder plastic DOES NOT mean that it will withstand an aggressive chewer! If your dog likes to "kill the squeaker" they will be able to do so in minutes! This IS NOT a chew toy! If you are looking for a toy for an aggressive chewer, look at the Orbeez line from Outward Hound. The other thing that makes me less enthusiastic about the orange hedgehog is that the yellow paint started flaking off immediately. I will have to scrub it all off because it looks terrible! The dogs don't care, but their owners sure do! I haven't had that problem with the sheep or the bears. The orange hedgehog is almost like it's from a completely different company!

I’ve bought two of these toys. My dog loves them. However, the grunt noisemaker broke on both of them within a week. The tube detaches from the toy. I’d buy more if you could fix the issue!

I recently bought the Outward Hound Tootiez Bear for my pup, and it has quickly become his favorite toy! The grunting sound it makes is an instant hit, keeping him entertained for hours. He loves to chew and tug on it, and I can tell it’s built to withstand his enthusiastic play.The latex rubber material is durable yet soft enough for his teeth, which is a big plus. I also appreciate that it's lightweight and easy for him to carry around the house. The cute bear design adds an extra fun touch, and it’s adorable to watch him interact with it.Cleaning is a breeze too; a quick wipe down is all it takes after a muddy play session. Overall, I highly recommend the Outward Hound Tootiez Bear for anyone looking for a fun and durable toy for their dog. It’s been a fantastic addition to our toy collection, and I can’t wait to see how it holds up over time!

Durou meia hora, o som da ovelha é de pato, péssimo

No me gustó, ya que en menos de media hora ya no funcionaba el sonido del oso, el plástico es bueno y aguanta las mordidas, pero muy fácilmente deja de funcionar el sonido que emite :(

It doesn't seem super durable and I used it with a dog that didn't adopt it as a favourite toy, but it does make some interesting sounds and has been really valuable as a distraction in training. It was the only toy that would reliably get a stealing dog to drop the item they've stolen and come and investigate!

Dog loved it
