I just received this product 10 minutes ago. Opened up-gave to my doxi and the squeeker is already dead. Come on-these products have been getting less and less reliable over the last few years. I will not purchase this product again. For example I still have one that is 4 years old, rather flat and dirty however the squeeker still does - if pressed properly work. Also in the time it took me to come in to my office room and type the first few sentences-I went back to look and guess what-in 15 minutes the product was disembowled and the squeeker stuck in my dogs teeth-he couldnt get off and what if I was not at home. Never again. Used to be a good reliable product. Not now. I am sad about this as my dog loves these balls but what is the point if they last 10 minutes and then become harmful.
