Not for heavy chewers. Better cuddling than chewing. Disappointed it didn't last long, but dog seemed happy to destroy it.
Not durable for strong chewers

Rubber fetch and tug a war stick. Description shows two large dogs playing tug a war with item. When I received it, it was not long enough or big enough for two dogs larger than mini dachshunds to play tug a war with. I'm also fairly certain that a large dog will be able to chew through it in less than a day.
Pup loved but chewed in half

Giving this toy three stars because our pup loved it but unfortunately chewed it in half within a few days. We were hopeful once she did, she’d just play with the two pieces separately but ultimately had to throw away. Once in half, she started chewing at the broken ends & we didn’t want her to swallow anything.
Great

I just replaced my dog's old one that lasted a year and a half. He's a power chewer and destroys most toys in mere minute, but these hold up to the countless hours of abuse over a long period of time.

This used to be a great toy for my pitbull, it would take him months to rip it apart. The last two I have gotten it has snapped in half the first five minutes of him having it.

This is hands down the best toy I’ve purchased for my dog. He’s a year-old Pitbull and tears threw every single toy. It takes him weeks to tear one of the balls off, so we get a good life out of them. He’s a fan of chewing on things in the back of his jaw, so these are his best friend.

My 1 year old puppy got CHUNKS of plastic out of this in minutes, not durable at all. Disappointed. I feel like Kong brand toys used to be a lot better.
