Good quality
Size: Large, Color: Dinos Frills (Gray)
we’ve had many godog toys over the years and although my dog eventually rips through them I do find that they last longer than other cheap toys. Overall very well made!

Cute and fairly long lasting
Size: Large, Color: Dinos Frills (Red)
Lasted from Nov 13th, 2024-August 20th, 2025 lol very impressive. She played with it nearly daily and loved the big squeak. The squeak box was just ripped out so she probably won’t play with it anymore. Happy to order another!

He was OBSESSED!!!
Size: Large, Color: Dinos Frills (Gray), Size: Large, Color: Dinos Frills (Gray)
Our year and a half old lab was excited the moment he saw it come out of the box ! He had many toys that he tore into shreds within a day so this was his first “heavy toy “ that wasn’t easy to tear .
I think he loves the design and feel of it , as he carried this thing EVERYWHERE and even to bed . Him and his sister share toys but this was his , he claimed it lol
Now if it wasn’t for us telling him to stop trying to kill the Dino he could have easily tore into this thing within a couple of days . However since he started chewing gently he became obsessed with the squeaker , and used that as an alarm that he was up every morning in bed 😂
The quality of the product is actually pretty good but it’s not bullet proof, and our smart dog was able to sneakily tear a whole in the nose and some how pull out the stuffing .
All in all I would definitely buy another toy from this company because they are made with quality for dogs , and lasted about three weeks longer than his average toys ! It was his favorite toy 💕

More Durable Than Most
My puppy likes this. He ripped up the stuffing pretty quickly but the rope innards are strong. Both a tug toy and chew. I would prefer it unstuffed so 4 ⭐️ instead of 5.

My dogs favorite toy
Color: Ropiez Dragon
The dragon is pretty durable but I will say my dog chews off the horn the first chance she gets. There is no stuffing except for the horn. Holds up well in a tug of war and play. For an average to moderate aggressive dog it hold up for awhile. It’s not indestructible it will tear.
