I have a Corgie puppy 1 y.o. Since a very early age he swallowed and destroyed many toys. My friend told me about dog toys for training and I bought it. The dog has a small mouth, but he catches the tug well and bites it. A dog looks very happy playing. Usually dog toys tear out in seams, but this one we use for quite long and it is still solid. Durable, satisfies the wish of the dog to bite, we play together. I am very glad with the purchase.
