Far Exceeded Expectations
Pattern Name: Cow Chew Toy Set
This was the first online purchase of dog toys that I made after we got our puppy. Purchase was made in August 2023. Currently February 2024.
Honestly, they were a little oversized for her at the beginning, but she still played with the stuffed cow (it was kind of her woobie) and some of the others.
Seven months in, here are her "reviews":
Round bone thing: Only clunker for our pup. She never took to that.
Cow plush squeaky: Loves it. Easy squeaker so a small puppy can still make it squeak, which they love because they think they're killing it.
Flat bone: Excellent for the devoted chewer. This has withstood many hours of gnawing with little evidence of wear. I do inspect it regularly because the hard plastic edging could be problematic if it starts to degrade. But it's holding up so far.
Blue double knot rope toy: This was one of her first chewers. She still loves it, though it does show wear because she is chewing off the tassles over time. Totally worth it.
Rubber ball with bell: She likes this, especially if someone throws it for her. From an owner standpoint, it gets slimy with saliva pretty quick, so I'm less enamored of it than she is. She hasn't used it as a chewer, though I'm sure some do. We leave it in her crate at night and that's how we know she's awake in the morning, because the bell tinkling as she rolls it around in the crate is a giveaway.
The rope ring thing is her A#1 very favorite thing, not just in this pack but among the wide variety of toys she has. She chews on it all the time and I'm back to order a new set of toys just to be sure we have one ready for the demise of the first. She loves to have it thrown, but she'll also just sit and chew on it. She also loves to do what my son calls "the spin cycle," in which she holds the rope in her mouth and throws the ring end all around as she spins. It's entertaining to watch. My aunt would have said, "Oh, look, she's playing with herself." To which my cousin would have replied, "No, Mom. Not WITH herself, BY herself!!!" Remembering which just entertains me all the more.
Now, a Boy Scout or sailor with knowledge of knots could re-string the one I have with new rope, I'm sure. And the next time I visit my dad, I'll ask hime to do just that. But for most people that's a bridge too far, so this company would be wise to sell just the rope pull toy. I haven't found a similar design on Amazon.
We have found this set to be a great value and highly recommend it.
