My 4yr old border collie male just LOVES his lamb chop, I'd give dog like ability of you a 5* rating.  Samson has dozens of toys and he likes to pic a toy for the day.  Lamb chop is that toy 50% of that time, until, I had to take it away to the hospital for surgery(meaning, I have to sew it up).  I gave Samson this for 2015 Christmas and he loved his lamb chop instantaneously.  The reason for the 2 star rating?  It's for the type of material used for lamb chops face and front feet.  It's made out of a knit, sock like material that tore very easily.  Samson does t tear up his toys anymore.  Though he does play rough with them.  He had lambchop less than 2 weeks when I noticed the first holes in the knit material on one foot, soon holes in the knit material on its face followed, soon after that, the other foot developed holes.  In less than a month the holes in his face knit material had multiplied to point stuffing fell out. That's when I took lambchop away.  Oh, after first hole in lambchops face, Samson found where the insidesqueaker was and was working towards it, so I reached in and removed squeakers.  I'm sad that they used such a stupid material for its face and front legs.  Usually when a seam copes undone, (which is usuall the case when his babies need to go to hospital), I just get out some upholstery thread and a needle and sew it shut.  The way this knit material is, I'm at a loss as how to repair his toy.  This toy would make an awesome baby toy minus the squeaker but a lousy puppy toy or any dog that has teeth and actually plays with his toys.  Obviously whoever designed toy with this knit  material hasn't a clue about how dogs play with their toys.  I wouldn't recommend this toy to any dog owner due to the knit material tears so easily, even with normal play. I found another lamb toy that Samson just loves, it's one of kong' s lambs.  After a couple of months, the face seam did come apart but was easily repairable.  This toy is too difficult to figure how to repair.  Usually when I repair a toy, it does t come apart again where I repair it.  This toy though, I know that knit material will keep tearing.  Funny thing is, Samson has blunted teeth, they aren't sharp, so it makes me wonder what would happen with this toy with a dog with sharp teeth....
