Skinny Peltz - Large

In 2020, we purchased these for our 6 month old puppy who was repeatedly destroying all of her toys. Christmas 2025, I gifted our dog a stuffed toy purchased from a local dog store. It was destroyed within an hour. Later that day, I found one of these little squirrels that we purchased FIVE years ago - still in action, a bit worse for the wear, but still very much loved by our dog. I decided to purchase another pack of these as they are clearly winners.

This is a plush toy, so *if your dog is a destroyer of things, it'll destroy this toy easily/instantly* & if they're not destroyed right away, I'd definitely expect them to be destroyed eventually just given the type of toy it is- plus much of that depends on the way your dog plays. That said, this plush, multiple squeaker toy has held up really well for the amount of use it gets in our home. Because it contains 3 separate squeakers in it, these toys have been like heaven for my 3 year old, male, Toy Fox Terrier to play with- he freaks out when we squeeze more than 1 squeaker at the same time & I don't do all 3 at once bc I think his head might actually explode LoL 😋! Seriously, ever since he's grown out of puppy-hood, he's much less destructive with his toys now, so we are able to buy toys like these for him, have him go nuts freaking out on them & have them hold up pretty well/for a while before it's time for a replacement, yet since they're not very expensive, it's not terribly hard to replace them if needed (he's still using the last toy in the original 3 pack we got for him). It's great for fetching via a "flinging" motion (they're not heavy enough to actually throw) if you have a smaller dog who doesn't cover much distance too readily, but the best part of this toy is the elongated design of it, because it makes for a perfect "tug of war" type of playtime toy with my little buddy (tugging is a behavior which you may or may not want to encourage your dog to do depending on its disposition). Since my dog thankfully isn't really destructive & doesn't have issues releasing a toy from a tugging interaction anymore, these items have held up pretty well for a plush type toy, but again, if you own a dog known for destroying their toys, or anything else for that matter, these probably aren't going to work out well for you. Given they're pretty cheap to replace, for a throw ready, tug toy which has 3 different places for a dog to chomp on to make it squeak, they've turned out to be perfect for our smaller sized pup & have become a favorite toy of my little guy which he's always ready to play with, at any time, with anyone- he's got it ready to go a lot of the time when we get back home to him after being out. Again, you'll need to go with Kong or something similarly durable if your dog destroys things or is still a puppy who doesn't know better, but for an average amount of wear & tear they've held up really well while remaining at the top of my dog's favorite toy list. So recommended for sure, but just know if you've got a chewy character on your hands, despite all the fun they'd have with these, I'd get a more durable toy instead of this one as these plush toys, while good quality, will not hold up to prolonged abuse (as is the case with most plush toys sold). However, for an "average destruction" level dog, it seems well enough made to last a decent amount of time & they're a source of an enjoyable playtime for our dog & therefore for us as his owners as well! Definitely recommend for it's features, like 3 different squeakers, it's great design for a tugging style of play & it's overall good durability for a plush style toy. 👍

My two pups love these had them for weeks now and they are still standing up . Would recommend. Will purchase again.

18” Skinny Peltz's long, slender shape definitely seems to hit the nail on the head for my Frenchie's sock obsession. Squeaker symphony (while it lasts):While the initial squeaking might have added to the fun, frequent washing seems to dampen their musical talents. So, If your dog is a squeaker aficionado, this might not be the perfect toy. However, it's good to know that my Frenchie still enjoys the toys even without the sound. Natural prey vibes:The animal shapes likely tap into Frenchie's natural hunting instincts, making these toys extra enticing.This suggests he appreciates aspects like texture and shape. The suitability for super aggressive play might depend on the individual dog's chewing style. For your Frenchie, who enjoys tugging but isn't a ruff player, these seem like a perfect match. **Overall:** The ZippyPaws Skinny Peltz sounds like a winner for Frenchie and potentially other sock-loving pups who prefer soft toys or enjoy gentle play. It's always a good idea to supervise playtime regardless of the toy, but these seem like durable and fun options that can withstand some enthusiastic tugging. **P.S.** Remember, every dog is an individual, so what works for Frenchie might not be the perfect fit for every pup. It's always a good idea to consider your dog's specific needs and preferences when choosing toys.

I do not regularly write reviews on Amazon, but I have a dog who is a super chewer ! But, of course, prefers soft toys over rubber-type materials. So we got him these. And of all of the soft toys we’ve ever gotten, these have lasted the longest! He chews through every other toy in a matter of minutes. We’ve had these for months!! & Great for tug of war :) 10/10 recommend !

These are great fun for tug of war with my Boston Terrier. No mess from being torn up to get to the stuffing.

My Bojack loves these, but they don’t last long. He has the squeakers popped and the toy coming apart within a day. So, these are not for aggressive chewers. These are probably better suited for dogs that like to have stuffed animals around for comfort and to play with, not tear apart.

My dog LOVES these squeaky toys! He got them for Christmas and with all the tossing and chewing there is not a rip in any of them. There are 2 to 3 squeakers in each so no matter where he bites they squeak much to his delight. He also loves playing fetch with them though I wish they could be thrown a little farther. I'm very satisfied with these toys!

Ces jouets tout doux sont adorés par les chiots qui s'amusent à tirer et à faire aller les pouet-pouet :)

Dog toy, big enough to tug.

Excelente material. Son durables y lavables. Mi perrita adora a sus tres monos apachurrados. Los trae para todos lados. Los junta en su tapete y se duerme con ellos. Los recomiendo ampliamente.

Perfette per la mia cucciola, squeaky resistente (a distanza di 3 giorni sono ancora integri)

Zacht en plat, ze nemen weinig ruimte. Mijn zoontje vind ze heel leuk, hij is bijna 9 maar het is speelgoed die past vooral bij jongere kinderen.
