Pet Qwerks Plush Interactive Dog Toys - Chattering Hedgehog - 4.5 in, All Breed Sizes

The media could not be loaded. My frenchie loves this toy. She walks around the house with her toy in her mouth. It is durable and loves the sound it makes.

Although this does not last long because our puppies rip out the stuffing, it’s one of their favorites so we re-buy it every once.

My dog has gone blind as a complication from Cushing's disease. She LOVED chasing balls and had been so sad when she could no longer find them, once thrown. We tried some smaller cat toys that made noise, but they were too small and she would inevitably bite down too hard and break the sound making mechanism. The size of this toy is just right, where she can grab it and make it make noise, but can't quite get the noise mechanism between her jaws. (She is 28 pounds, for reference.) I ordered extras in case she gets a lucky bite. She LOVES when I press the button and throw it so she can hear it and chase it. It has made my dog happy to play again, and that gives my heart joy. I do wish the noise maker would repeat 5 times instead of 3, because sometimes it stops before she finds it, but otherwise this is perfect. Two thumbs up!

I'm a bit torn on a review for this product. I would give it 5 for the hedgehog itself - it's sizable, seems pretty sturdy (although if your dog easily tears into toys this one will go quick), and both my 10 pound poodle and 45 pound German Shepherd mix love it. I would give the toy 2 stars for the noise it makes though. As other reviewers have said, the noise stopped functioning after about 5 times. At that point, only my toy poodle had been playing with it and he isn't big enough to get his mouth around the belly portion of where the sound box is, so it seems to me the batteries burnt out.I went with 4 stars because the dogs haven't stopped playing with it since I gave it to them on Christmas and it's been holding up well. But if you're getting it purely for the noise, definitely don't buy it. You just sort of need to assume it's going to be a regular old, non-noise making toy.

We've purchased these little hedgehogs from a national retail store for our little Lhasa for about 6 years, I didn't think they were made by the same manufacturer because these were such poor quality compared to the others. Imagine my surprise when I went to the national retail website and I found the same toy, but ever so slightly different. The "fur-like" fabric on the two we just received was thin and I could see my dog getting pieces of it stuck in his throat. Then I was curious because I was sure I had ordered this same toy from amazon in the past, and I had. I put the old and the new together and there was a significant quality difference. The fabric used on all parts of these stuffed hedgehogs was unsatisfactory,Immediately after giving the hedgehog to my Lhasa a seam opened. This was a matter of minutes. My husband thought I dropped something. When he handed it to me I was confused. I asked what it was, he said he didn't know, he thought it was mine. I pressed on it, and it was the cute little hedgehog noise.With the others we've purchased of these we've never had any seam ripping. It also took us quite a while to find the "voice box" I thought, how's the dog going to be able to figure it out when we can't. Well he found it all right. He could have easily swallowed that piece that fell on the floor.The other thing, and this is the topper. The one you can purchase at the national "get anything for your home" retailer sells for just under five dollars, and it's a bit larger than the two we received. We figured we'd spend $5.60 because we didn't have to ruin the environment by driving to the Supermall for a dog toy. So, I've realized that I can go to this retailer, check the quality and spend less.Let me also say, non of this is by any means amazon's doing.Since this manufacturer sells these everywhere, they probably just started using cheaper material so they can make more money or these are from a bad batch? Did they run out of the "Good material so had to use the "backup", maybe the seam ripped open after a few minutes of play time because someone "new" is doing the sewing? They are just putting our furry family members at risk. What if the "voice box" was on the floor but this time a baby put it in their mouth? They could easily choke on it.Again. we've been buying these for years (the hedgehog's voice box doesn't last long) and this is the first time I've had a problem because I always check out the "squeaker" and make sure it's up high where others haven't been wearing it out.In the pictures, the two lighter colored Hedgehogs are the new ones, and the ones in the rear are probably a year old. The year old guys have short thick plush where the just purchased ones the "fur" is thin scraggly and matted. The older HH's look better than the brand new ones. What happened Pet Qwerks?

My dog loves this toy especially the sound it makes

My dog loved this toy newspaper, but unfortunately, the squeakers stopped working after a few hours. The item is made of durable material and it will probably last, but again, the squeakers that the dogs love to play with to make the sounds, do not work

Thank you Amazon for having so many different things to order from, fast shipping great prices. Quality.
