Is the ZippyPaws Skinny Peltz 3-Pack right for your dog?
- Who it’s for
- The shake-and-carry instinct — no stuffing to pull out, three toys in a pack, and light enough for a small puppy to lug around.
- Who should skip it
- Your puppy destroys plush. These are soft toys and several owners report them being shredded.
The verdict
Three stuffing-free plush critters with squeakers, and the appeal for a new puppy is that they are light enough to pick up and carry, which is half of what a young dog wants from a toy. No polyfill means that when one does get opened up — and one will — you are picking up fabric rather than vacuuming a snowdrift. ZippyPaws pitches them for "a playful puppy or a seasoned senior," and both ends of that are fair: soft toys suit dogs without the jaw strength or the interest for hard chews. Owner feedback is exactly what you would expect for plush, split between people whose dogs have had them for months and people whose dogs opened them in an afternoon. Treat them as supervised toys and retire them the moment a squeaker is exposed.
Drawbacks
- Plush — will not survive a determined chewer
- Squeakers are a swallow risk once exposed
