Way smaller than I expect for a ‘large’ toy. My whippet destroyed this in 3 minutes. Chewed off a big chunk. Not safe for even moderate chewers.

I Brought home a bone today and unfortunately my french bulldog showed no interest. Usually she grabs and runs .

My dog only smells the toy. She has no interest in playing or eating her new toy. Both my dog and I are upset that she ignores the treat.

the strings on the rope can be chewed off and swallowed by the dog and the toys really stink
Response from PlayologyMar 5, 2020
Hi June, I understand the concern many dog owners have about rope toys. Traditional cotton rope can tear off into long strands that can pose hazards when swallowed. Our dri-tech rope fibers on the other hand are much finer than cotton rope fiber, designed to tear off into small pieces that can pass more easily through the digestive tract without absorbing water or creating issues. As for the scent, if you reach out to me at [email protected], I would be happy to replace this toy with a different scent that yours and your dog's noses will prefer. Regards, Karen

This product has a HORRIBLE AND STRONG CHEMICAL SMELL!! We bought the peanut butter chew stick for our dog who likes to chew. Not only will he not touch it, the chemical smell is HORRIBLE AND STRONG!! I have asthma which really concerns me and it feels like my throat is swelling! What is this made of?? Supposedly natural and safe but I don't believe it for a second. Will be returning.

We purchased the squeaky chew stick for our pup. At first everything was great, but when we left and returned home a few hours later our family room and kitchen smelled horrible. We realized the smell was coming from the toy. We put the toy in a ziplock bag to contain the smell until we could return it, but the next day the horrible smell was coming through the bag. So, unless you are completely “nose blind” and never have guests over, this may not be a great toy for your dog. And if a dog’s sense of smell is 10,000x more than mine, I can’t even imagine! 😂

I really need someone to know what has happened to my poor dog with your dog toy. First of all, The smell is awful. It stunk up my living room. This last saturday my Australiann cattle dog mix chewed this for a few moments and ended up breaking an end off and SWALLOWING IT. It is now Thursday and she has been sick throwing up and pooping pieces of this toy (since 445am) and the giant chunk she swallowed finally came up. She is still sick and very lethargic, she won't eat anything. Not even boiled chicken and rice. I absolutely will not recommend this dog toy to anyone. I will not only be writing this review but I will be leaving reviews on all sites that sell these toys. I am extremely upset and this has never happened to my dog with any toy. I am so scared for her. She is a mess. This is not right. My husband and I will not stop until someone makes this right! Thank you

Hi Brittany, Thank you for contacting. Playology takes safety very seriously. Because there are no dog toy regulations in the US, we follow the testing standards for US Child Toy to ensure our toys are free of harmful chemicals and toxins. We make our toys for a variety of chewers, and it's very important to us that a dog is matched with the right sort of toy for their chewing behavior. The squeaky chew stick is a newer toy for us, and we have found that it is best suited for moderate chewers and not recommended for very tough chewing dogs. For any toy, we recommend that owners monitor their dog while playing, take away any toy that is showing signs of damage, and contact us immediately so we can find out what happened and replace the toy with something more suitable. Regards, Karen
