Playology Dual Layer Bone Dog Chew Toy - Jumbo, Beef Scent

Get a German Shepherd, they said. It will be great, they said. They weren't wrong. 💙 Except... nobody warned me that chew toys have a self-destruct "count-down", within the hour, when a GSD gets a hold of it. The amount of money I've spent, in the 1st year, replacing, replenishing, and exploring chew toys.... has cost me more than what I paid for my purebred GSD. It's been worth it. She's 100% worth it. But I was losing hope my sweet girl would never have a long-term comfort toy. And then I met "playology". And it was like I'd found a GSD's toy-soulmate. Prior to the array of chew-toys I've bought from playology I had to be conscientious about quality-VS-cost, because I didn't want to spend a ton of $$; just to have the toy destroyed by Mila's aggressive playing. But after the 1st toy survived through a WEEK 😲... I bought a 2nd, then 3rd...etc. And now playology is my go-to. Now that I've thoroughly rambled... let's get down to brasstacks. THE FACTS: [my personal assessment scale 1-to-10] 1= calm as a light breeze. OR I wouldn't recommend, even if free. 10= destructive like an F5-tornado 😂 OR I recommend so strongly, I might get judgey if ya don't buy it. [LOL! Just teasin] MILA: >> 80lbs, 22-month-old purebred Sable GSD. PLAYSTYLE: 10 >> Aggressive, destructive chewer. >> seriously! I had to replace my livingroom carpet, bc I took a 30-min nap and she ripped it OFF the subfloor. ENERGY: 7 >> when she's up, she's in go-mode. TOY ANNIHILATION: 9 >> prior to playology- nothing lasted longer than 72-hrs. PLAYOLOGY RECORD: 9 APPEARANCE: 8 >> colors are more than just bright, playful, and aesthetically pleasing; they serve a purpose. >> Playology uses color coordination to help consumers quickly identify the LEVEL of toughness. All toys in the same level of toughness, will have a dominant color for quick identification; without having to read the fine-print. SHAPE/SIZE: 5 >> Meh. Here's one, of very frew, gripes I have. Because of the diversity of ONE product, the variety of sizes available is limited. >> but that's a small issue in comparison to value. DURABILITY: 9. >> out of the 7 toys I've bought, only one hasn't survived. But, even that one lasted a month. >> I am 100% comfortable leaving Mila alone to chew, chew, chew to her hearts content. I don't worry over pieces breaking off ( bc none ever have). I don't worry about her choking; bc majority of toys are big enough, they physically cannot be swallowed. >> EVERY toy (except 1) has lasted... but MOST importantly, Mila LOVES them. I am reviewing THIS particular toy bc it's her favorite; her 'security-blanket'. She also has 3- squeaker balls, a soft crinkle disc, and 2 oblong balls (but she's impartial to those) The ONE and ONLY thing you, as a consumer, might want to be conscientious of, is... THESE TOYS are SCENTED! Almost all of them are. And even though Mila LOOOOVES that (the Cheese seems 2 be her favorite)... the potency of the toy's smell, during the first few months, turned my stomach. It does fade over time (or I've become nose blind). And I haven't noticed any adverse reactions to these toys.... so I feel like they truly are non-toxic. The UPSIDE to the scent? I used these toys to train the "FIND" command. The stronger smell helping her locate when hidden. QUICK COMMENT on THIS TOY: This bone does NOT have a squeaker. It DOES have a small bounce to it when tossed on a hard surface. It's very dense, a little heavy; so, might not be ideal for tiny dogs. It DOES kinda smell like cheese; but with a faint chemical smell. I recommend hand washing it with a dab of non-toxic soap... let FULLY dry, hand wash again without soap to make sure all soap is gone; let fully dry. This substantially reduces the chemical smell. OVERALL?: 10 out of 10. No regrets. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!😍🤩 I will not only continue to be a loyal patron, but I'm a Playology 'cheerleader' to any dog-parents, I now meet.

My dog loves the blueberry scent. So far he has not been able to destroy these. My last JRT wouldn’t play with the playology toys. I am glad this dog does because these are great for him being an aggressive chewer.

Absolutely do not recommend. My toy poodles puppy had it for under 5 mins and it’s already a danger, large chunk missing. Shes not a strong chewer so this was a crazy. Definitely wouldn’t recommend to anyone, not safe. Not suitable for dogs, do not leave your dog alone with this toy. I’m glad I was right beside her. .

Have a Pitador (lab/pit mix) weighing 68 pounds. Loves to chew and spends hours with these bone chew toys. The bone used to last for a few weeks but now pieces come off within hours. Life of the bone is down to 1 week. Almost seems as though Playology changed the formula. Will continue to purchase bc our pet loves to chew on them. Beef flavor is his favorite.

My dogs favorite. We use it for hide and seek

Our dogs liked these, but they were not durable. It took less thank 10 minutes for our dog to chew the end off the bone. They are quiet on hardwood / laminate floors unlike the nylon toys. If you have a dog that is not a strong chewer these may be fine, but they are NOT durable for strong chewers.

My girls love these!

She loves blueberry

Playology è una garanzia, resistente ai masticatori più ostinati. Finalmente dei giochi che resistono! Il mio cane lo adora.

Hält wirklich sehr gut! Unser Dackel kaut wie bekloppt darauf herum. Durch die spitzen Zähne sind mittlerweile ein paar spuren zurückgeblieben...aber insgesammt hällt der Knochen jetzt schon mehrere Monate. Andere Hundespielzeuge überlegen bei uns nur Stunden oder Minuten.

nul à durer 10min a ma chienne, elle a réussis a le dépioter

Bought this for my black lab cross staffy, he tends to get through toys rather quickly but this is still going after all this time been more durable than I thought and minimal damage so far. Perfectly safe for him as I bought him a large bone, there's teeth marks in it but nothing else and it did smell like what it claimed enough to him he wouldn't stop carrying it around. Need them to have a tough chew toy this is a great choice.
