I have had two of these - both purchased for my 5.5 lb Pomeranian who is now about 1-1/2 years old. The first one was purchased when he was a wee puppy at 2 months and he loved it for several months. I liked that the texture seemed to massage his teething and it is relatively inexpensive. At around 1 year, the nubs looked a little worn, so we tossed it out and got another. In less than a month, one day I noticed him gnawing at it and then working at a chunk in his mouth! Wrestled it away from him and tossed the whole thing out.

The verdict? Maybe tough enough for a puppy's jaws and pin teeth, but definitely not up to snuff for an energetic healthy teethed dog...yes, a Pomeranian - not a Terrier or Bulldog, or other tenacious chewbreed.
