Unintended Consequence!!!
by PBH (5 out of 5 stars)
December 30, 2017

My son's yorkie poo stays at my place a lot, mostly because I take him to a nearby university campus, where, well-trained as he is, I can let him off-lead and chase squirrels to his heart's content. He is obsessed with squirrels now, so we thought this would be a fun Christmas toy for him. We followed the advice of other reviewers and supervised to try to delay the death of all the squirrels. We let him play with the tree trunk after he had rooted out all the squirrels and tried to kill them, as a dog will do. He loves the tree trunk -- so much so that he makes love to it every time we let him play with it. He is nearly five years old, and was neutered as a pup, and never was much for humping, but he goes after that tree trunk like a prisoner on a conjugal visit every time we set it out for him to play with. If we have guests, it's a floor show. He doesn't care. I'm not quite sure what to make of all this, but as long as it makes him happy . . . .

So Much Fun!
by Cherie Searles (4 out of 5 stars)

I have a 1 year old pitbull mix who is a very strong chewer. I bought this after having read many many reviews knowing that it would probably be torn to pieces but that he would love it while it lasted. I was pleasantly surprised to find that with a little bit of supervision, this toy lasted a few months. He absolutely loves this toy!

The squirrels are the perfect size for him to hold in his mouth and carry around and they're a good size to toss around for a game of catch. If left to his own devices, he will absolutely shred this toy in about a minute. However, when we used it with him - by hiding the squirrels over and over and tossing them in the air for him to catch - and then put it away after playtime, they lasted quite a while. This toy will definitely not hold up to chewing but when used interactively and with supervision it's fun and will last a bit longer.

The squirrels have quite a few seams and are easy to tear apart. There's not really a whole lot of stuffing so not a huge mess but a mess nonetheless. The squeaker is just stuck in there with the stuffing with not extra reinforcement or protection so be aware of that if your dog likes to kill things that squeak. I really like that you can buy replacement squirrels and they're not that expensive.

The tree stump itself has generally held up well, although there is some tearing around the holes just from the dog shoving his nose in there over and over again. Some extra reinforcement around the openings would be wonderful and would make this last even longer.

Bottom line, I think most dogs would love this toy and if you're willing to supervise the play this should be a must buy. However, if your dog is a heavy chewer and you're looking for something you can leave out for them to play with at will, this is probably not the best choice.

Speechless
by In the Boonies (5 out of 5 stars)

Our puppy lives to destroy. The name "Pirahna" would be more suitable for our 3 month old "Molly". This is a dog that eats the outside of our house. She eats rocks, the underbelly of chairs, wooden porches...nothing is safe. She is the godzilla of small towns made of dog toys. Every toy we have gotten her lays shredded in indistinguishable ruins with the exception of this one little Squirrel House. We made bets on how long it would last -- 15 seconds being the favorite choice. She doesn't waste time searching out the squirrels in the house. No, she just shakes the house with her head vigorously and the squirrels go flying. This is her favorite toy. She carries the squirrels around like they're her babies. Her favorite pull toy is the squirrel house and its held up better than any toy actually made to be a pulI toy. I really, really don't get it -- but this is the Samsonite of all dog toys. I'd write more but I just saw her go through the doggie door with my recipe book.

I am glad it is smaller than what I thought

This little toy is so cute. I bought it for my 10 week old mini-dashchund, Layla. I am glad it is smaller than what I thought, because Layla is tiny herself. When I unwrapped it, she was getting excited. I put it on the floor, she gabbed it and took off wth it. Lol. She is enjoying it! Highly recommend this toy!

Not the same quality
by Denise Riopelle (1 out of 5 stars)

I don't normally write reviews as I try to research as much as possible, but that is also by way of including you helpful people who DO write reviews. That said, after purchasing this toy I was sadly disappointed. I had purchased the wonderful!!! Hide a hedgehog toy from Outward hound and it is fantastic. Made of durable fire hose material it although not the same, has lasted the test of time. I love the concept of these toys. My soft- mouthed golden retriever needs to be stimulated and loves to play. I mention the soft mouth because she's not an aggressive chewer, even at 7 months. Loves the hidey holes and pulling things in and out. I just got this today, and within two hours she had ripped out all the holes. It is not made of the durable fire house materials, rather just another plush toy easily annihilated.. I did contact the manufacturer to suggest they keep both the concepts of the toy but also stick with the same durable material. She said she would pass it along. I have so enjoyed watching and playing with my dog with the hedgehog toy and was hoping for the same, but they are not even close in quality. I thank all of you people who have shown me, shared with me and instructed me that it IS important to write reviews. Thank you

My dog loves this toy!
by escar,Top Contributor: Pets (5 out of 5 stars)

I only bought this because of the high ratings and low price. As soon as I showed my dog the toy he went crazy. I hide the squirrels in the trunk and he loves shoving his snout in the opening and pulling the squirrels out. Maybe he feels like he's hunting, or perhaps it makes him feel like an apex predator, but he loves it, lol. I bought the small size for my 10lbs dog. The squirrels are just the right size and fit perfectly into his mouth. He has enjoyed countless hours with this toy and its almost time to buy a replacement. These toys will not last forever, it totally depends on your dog and how much of a chewer he/she is. My dog has destroyed the squirrels and I will gladly buy more. The toy lasted about 3-4 months, and I consider this normal since it's a plus toy, not a plastic bone. The squirrels have squeakers in them and trunk is hollow so you can stuff em inside. Definitely recommend!

EASILY COMES APART.CHOKE HAZARD FOR DOG.
by Thoth9000 (1 out of 5 stars)
February 17, 2018

This toy seems like a good idea at first and our dog absolutely loved it until we realized that she had started ripping out the arms, legs and tail of the squirrels and unknowingly ingesting the stuffing inside.The tail especially is full of thin strands of nylon or whatever synthetic material it is made of and your dog WILL ingest it.They go rough on these toys and chew it all day.We had to take her to the vet because these thin strands from the squirrels bunched up and got lodged in her throat.Its unbelievable that other dog owners are not noticing this.The build quality of this toy is cheap and a choke hazard.DO NOT BUY THIS. Find one that is made from a material that does not come apart.

Daisy love this and my vet says it stimulates her IQ
by Rebecca (5 out of 5 stars)

I have a Goldendoodle puppy (11 weeks). My vet said they are an intelligent breed and recommended getting her "puzzle toys." She loves this one! She loves to pull the squirrels through the holes. Plus, they squeak and are a great size for playing fetch, which she also loves. She seems like a chew monster to me, but I'm guessing she's not as bad as other dogs. Some reviews say their dogs ripped this up, but not my Daisy. She does chew on it some and drag around the plush log, but so far no damage to it. I've had this for a couple of weeks now and she uses it daily.

Avoid Using "Smelly" Treats
by Midwest Boomer (5 out of 5 stars)

We got this Jumbo squirrel log as a distraction for our German Shepherd -- we give it to her as we leave the house, but she also pulls it out of her toy bin when we're home. She loves it -- it's definitely her favorite toy of all time. Shakes the heck out of the log to get the squirrels out, and they fly everywhere. I put a few hard treats in under the squirrels, and she loves to shove her nose into the holes to retrieve them. It's large enough that we can put some of her other soft toys inside to "tighten" the packing and make it more challenging.

The only issue is durability: I made the mistake of putting some strongly-scented soft treats in the log, and the scent attached itself to the toy. She immediately dismantled the log. I have purchased a replacement and intend to avoid "stinky" treats in the future. Well worth the money.
