Pattern Name:Squirrel|Size Name:Large
I can say that this AKC squirrel instantly became my dog's favorite toy the second she saw it. The squirrel is exceptionally realistic looking, especially from a distance. I set the toy out on the lawn and the dog, already an avid squirrel chaser, took off after it like a bullet. It is the only squirrel she has ever been able to catch! She immediately took it and ran with it into the house and jumped up on the bed to chew on it (which I suppose is a preview of coming attractions should she ever happen to catch a real one). I have tried to get her to play with her other toys, but if the squirrel is anywhere in sight, she won't even look at the others. If the squirrel is anywhere she can get to it, she will grab it and go jump up on the bed to gnaw on it. If the squirrel is out of reach, and she can see it, she will stare at the squirrel, then look at me, then stare at the squirrel, then look at me, until I can't stand it any more and either give it to her or hide it. So why only 3 stars? Unfortunately, the squirrel is a bit fragile for my particular dog. Some reviewers have said that their dog has had this toy for months or years. From that I can surmise that their dog is not a Norrbottenspets. Norrbottenspets are a 'primitive' breed with strong instincts for chasing, catching and gutting small ground animals. It is not surprising that this same fate would be in store for stuffed toys that resemble small ground animals. The squeaker in the tail didn't last 5 minutes before it was pierced by a sharp canine tooth. Next were the feet. I left the room for 10 minutes to take a phone call, and when I returned the squirrel was footless and stuffing was decorating the bed. So I put the toy away and, to make it last a bit longer, I have tried to let her have it only when supervised. However, even that is tricky. She is very good at holding it in her paws and hiding what she is actually doing to it, such as chewing its legs off. And I can't watch her every second. The squirrel lost two legs during a recent bathroom break. So after a week, we are down to a squirrel with only the vestige of one leg remaining, and a tail chewed just about in half. Lately I can see that she has turned her attention to its head. The ears were the first thing to go once that happened. I fully expect that before the month is out, the squirrel will be headless as well. Then it will join company with the five other stuffed animal torsos currently in the sewing room awaiting surgery. So, while this is a great toy, and dogs love it, if you have a toy-shredder like I do, it may not be the best choice for you. It's a bit pricey as a "sacrificial" toy. I can buy similar sized stuffed toys at Pet Club for a couple of bucks, that I don't feel bad about just throwing away once they become a legless, decapitated torso. I found a small stuffed toy dog there (at least I think it started out as a dog) that was constructed in a way that the legs and ears could be chewed off without getting into the body cavity, and the head and torso are basically one piece. So, while it, too, has been reduced to a legless, earless head/torso, the squeaker still works and the what is left of it is not leaking any stuffing. That one has gone a few months and is still hanging in there (although you can't tell what it used to be. It looks like a fuzzy cylinder). It only cost $3.97.

I have a young Siberian Huskey who LOVES to chew. He has ripped holes is many of this stuffed animals, except he has yet to do so with any of his Jakks plush animals. He has several of their animals and loves them all, expecially the possum. They are well made and I recommend them highly over any other plush for dogs.

I purchased this because my lab loves to attempt to catch squirrels...He is rough with it and it looks the same after 2 months as the day it came.

Loves his bunny!
My little terrier loves the small bunny! He carries it all over the house! He is only 11 pounds so even after two months the squeeker is still in tact. We love it!

It really is the size of a squirrel. The only drawback is that my dog chews on the exposed feet and she's already removed the squeeker. Read more
