Gourdo Dog Toy Major Hit

Rating:*****
I was looking specifically for a dog toy that could withstand the rigor of a friend's whippet.

Not only is the toy as durable as could be desired, my friend's whippet immediately seized upon it and wouldn't relinquish it until bedtime, so it's obviously attractive in the right way.

My dog LOVES the Gourdo.

Rating:*****

He's now trained to fetch as I yell "Gourdo"! Although the rope got chewed out in about 10 seconds, the rubber is nuclear in the bombproof level. Like all the Ruffwear stuff, this is very well made.

Awesome toy

Rating:*****
My lab mix loves this toy. She's a bit of an aggressive chewer and chewed through the rope within the first week, but the rubber section seems pretty durable.
