   Darn you Mr. Squeeky and your funloving ways…
   I first found these at a giant brick and mortar store that has since stopped carrying this size. I have a dachshund and he swears by this toy. So much so that he has worn out the original and is now working on number 2 ( after a year of CONSTANT use ( seriously we have to take it away just before bed or it ends up under my wife or myself and sqeeks when you roll over and it’s the first thing he looks for in the morning)).I was reading over the other reviews and saw someone compare them to the Kong brand of toys. This was a really unrealistic comparison. The Kong brand is for dogs that are bent on destructive chewing habits whereas these toys are just that… toys, they are not meant to be indestructible so IF you already know your dog just wants to chew something until it’s gone don’t worry about grabbing one of these.However, if your dog loves to run and chase a well designed sqeek toy that’s easy to grab even for aging teeth please keep reading.Here’s the breakdown of this toy;Positive notes:The fluffy stuff inside this ball keeps the sqeeking action going EVEN after the dog has punctured the outer shell within reason.The ball is just around the size of a tennis ball so throwing and gripping are no problem for owner or dog however there are indents that add an extra element of adventure for the dog by causing an uneven bounce patern. They are so close to tennis ball sized that a Chuckit! Launcher holds them fine.The rubber outer shell is a soft velvety feeling stuff that is extremely resistant to bites except for super sharp puppie teeth as one reviewer noted. I purchased one of these ( medium ) for a friend at work and her larger dog is just over a year old so the razor sharp edges of her furbabies teeth have been dulled just a bit. that one lasted 7 months and now she’s asking for details on where to buy them and what size that one was.The DOWN SIDE(s):The dog’s love these things. None of the dogs or puppies I have gotten one for as a gift will leave them alone and when they finally perish in a sqeekless glory the dogs ( 5 total ) have ALL pined for their Dura Play. I wouldn’t really want to count this as a downside but anything that addictive is prolly not healthy psychologically. ( not that my dog cares one bit for the psychology of addiction as long as he has his Mr. Squeeky )My only other complaint is that the sqeeker is buried down in there. I don’t know how that one dog got the thing out but I have tried to give our spare one laryngitis with car keys and coathangers just so we can go out and play late at night in the summer without bothering our neighbors. Not happening, this thing withstood everything I felt comfortable throwing at it. And trust me I dug around in there trying to make it silent. They will however jar loose after months and months of impact against the ground and so go silent for a day or two at times until it hit’s just right and there it goes making it’s happy sounds again.They do seem to “talk” in different pitches and my dog loves the lower pitches ( I think the higher pitched ones hurt his ears ) those are the first ones I gave away as gifts and those dogs had no issues with the sound so it may just be a preferential thing. He’s getting up in age so it may just be that the higher pitch is harder for him to hear as well.All in all, again, UNLESS your dog or puppie is just out to destroy his or her toys I would really recomend giving this ball a shot.

   Bacon-Fueled Fun: A Review of Hartz Dura Play Squeak Ball Dog Toy
   I recently bought the Hartz Dura Play Bacon Scented Squeak Ball Dog Toy (3 Pack) for my small breed dog, and it’s safe to say these toys have been an absolute hit!The bacon scent is the first thing that struck me – it’s quite strong and very appealing to my dog. It’s fascinating to see how the scent entices and keeps his interest, making playtime even more engaging. The squeak feature adds an extra layer of excitement; it’s loud enough to be fun for him without being overbearing for me.Durability is a major factor when it comes to dog toys, and the Hartz Dura Play balls have not disappointed. They’ve withstood rigorous chewing and play, proving to be resilient against my dog’s enthusiastic play style. The quality of the material is impressive; it’s soft yet sturdy, which is perfect for small breeds that love to chew.The size of these balls is ideal for smaller dogs. They’re easy for my dog to carry around in his mouth and fetch. The texture and squishiness of the balls make them enjoyable for him to chew on and play with, providing a good balance between firmness and give.One of the best aspects of this product is the value of the 3-pack. Having multiple balls means there’s always a spare when one goes under the couch or gets lost in the yard, ensuring continuous fun.Safety is always a concern with dog toys, and I appreciate that these balls feel safe and non-toxic. I still supervise my dog during playtime, but I feel confident about the quality of this product.In summary, the Hartz Dura Play Bacon Scented Squeak Ball Dog Toy is a fantastic choice for small breed owners. Its durability, appealing scent, and perfect size make it a favorite in our home. Highly recommended for anyone looking to add some bacon-scented fun to their dog’s toy collection!

   recommend it to any dog owner looking for a fun and engaging toy
   I recently purchased the Hartz DuraPlay Bacon Scented Dog Toys for my dog, and I couldn’t be happier! He has rediscovered his love for fetch and now plays independently, which is a huge relief. The bacon scent keeps him engaged, and the toy’s durability means it withstands his enthusiastic play. It’s the perfect size for him to carry around, and he enjoys chewing on it too. This toy has truly revitalized his playtime, making it a fantastic addition to our collection. I highly recommend it to any dog owner looking for a fun and engaging toy

   Great dog toys and we have ordered several times. These are a keeper for sure
   The quality and softness of these balls are perfect. My dogs absolutely love them. We have ordered these balls several times because my dogs wear them out. They love the squeakers as they will sit and squeak them typically when I’m trying to go to bed. We have 4 dogs, and 2 of the dogs will sometimes try and chew to remove the squeakers.We don’t mind ordering these frequently because our dogs love them and wear them out. We found out there is white fleece type stuffing inside these balls because several have been ripped open.I would recommend getting these as they are a huge favorite.One thing I wish we buy only the green ones because one of my dogs will only play with and actually hoard only the green balls.I’m actually making another order of these medium sized balls right now because they just tore the squeaker out of the last green ball.Highly recommend these as your dog will love them.

   Our puppy went crazy for this toy. He absolutely loves it! we are having so much fun with the ball. it has a nice squeak to it, so it does not drive us crazy. Nice and soft and really smells like bacon.He picked green and other two will be presents for his friends. hopefully they will love it as much as he does.

   Tenho 2 poodles muito ativos, mas nenhum deles gostou dessa bolinha. O suposto cheiro de bacon não parece tão atrativo para eles.

   The ball makes a noise when you squeeze it and also when it re-inflates. Good value for the money. Highly recommend.
