6 months of tug-o-war... gotta love that there's no stuffing! April 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had the Dr. Noys teddy bear in the medium size for almost 6 months, purchased for my 30 lb sheltie girl. Our dog is not a "sit down and try to rip apart" kind of dog, but she does love to play tug-o-war! I usually grip the head while she grabs onto either the squeaking body or one of the limbs, and she hops and pulls and shakes and play-growls until she gets too thirsty to continue. Hubby and I also play keep-away with the bear, tossing it back and forth so she'll run between us for some exercise (she's not much of a retriever). Sometimes she'll pick up the bear and bring it over to me to let me know it's time to play, but otherwise she really doesn't play with the bear on her own. Not the fault of the bear, it's just the way my sheltie is, and I hope it gives you a better idea of how this bear might hold up with your dog.
This bear came with a free replacement squeaker, which I placed inside the fleece bag that contains the other squeaker, for extra squeaking fun. Probably because of the extra protection the fleece gives, both squeakers have survived my little girl's needle sharp teeth. The fleece thing inside the bear also gives it bulk, without that messy stuffing that dogs so love to pull out. I could hear and feel stitches pop on occasion while playing tug-o-war, but this toy really has held up well compared to other plush dog toys. For 5 months, this bear looked perfect, other than the slobber on it. Our bear has about three sizeable holes and is missing a bit of fur on its chest, which all happened in the last month, but we still use it because there's no stuffing in the bear. I'm currently looking for another Dr. Noys toy as a replacement, when that teddy bear goes to tug-o-war heaven.
In addition to being very sturdy, this bear is super cute. I have a photo of the Dr. Noys teddy bear in the arms of my sheltie who was laying down, and it's a photo I'll cherish forever.
