This is a nice toy but is not aggressive pug proof....
Pattern Name: Frog
My little alpha female pug mix ripped this frog apart in about 3 weeks during supervised tugging with me. We've been sewing the head back together as the stuffing gets scattered but I'm afraid we'll have to put Mr. Frog down in a few weeks. This toy has a squeaky and a crinkle sound that make it interesting for the dog but it is not indestructible. She really likes this toy and I'll probably buy another one. Just wish I got more than a few months out of the purchase.

Crinkley Paper Should Not be Ingested
Pattern Name: Donkey, Pattern Name: Donkey
This thing was cute as can be, and for awhile my dogs got some good play time out of it. But I was somewhat mortified when I saw torn up pieces of the "crinkley paper" all over my living room carpet. It is like a crunchy Saran Wrap, definitely not something a dog should be potentially ingesting. They can say the toy is tough and durable, but it ultimately is not, so it matters what is inside it. I really can't believe they would put something like that inside a toy. As soon as I saw it, I immediately threw the toy in the garbage. All dog toys have something inside them that is pretty non-digestible, but this plastic seemed particularly wreckless to me. So cute or not, I cannot recommend this toy and will not buy from this manufacturer again.
