How to use: Grab the toy and start a tug-of-war game with your dog or just let your dog play with it on their own to hear the squeaker. Notice that this toy is for tough play but not for heavy chewing. When choosing this toy, think about your dog's size and how active they are. While your dog is playing, stay nearby to make sure they're safe. To keep the toy in good shape, you can gently wash it with mild soap and water when it gets dirty. Let it dry completely before giving it back to your dog.
