This toy is real easy for a dog to destroy. The rubber holding the 2 rings together can be easily ripped apart by a large dogI have 4 Goldens and it didn't take long for them to realize that the rubber gives way.Don't buy it.

Bought this tug based on the good reputation of the Kong brand. All other Kong toys have held up very, very well. This tug only has "Kong rubber" at the ends and in the middle. The sides are exposed, red plastic. Our dogs immediately went to work on the red plastic and had it torn apart in 2 days. If only Kong had put it's rubber all over the toy, it probably would have held up for a long time and become a favorite toy with my dogs.

I volunteer at a no-kill animal shelter, and from time to time bring toys in for the dogs. I saw this toy, and figured it would be great for all the medium sized and large dogs there, for playing tug-of-war with me. Sadly, I was wrong. After a few times with larger dogs, it broke in half. Also, some of the dogs didn't want to play tug-of-war with this toy (I don't know why), and chose others to play with.

Honest reviews on KONG Tug Toy Dog Toy, Red

I have this toy and my dogs love it. I think some people who are having problems with it may not understand that it is not a chew toy. Any dog given enough time and determination can take this apart. This toy should be used to interact with your dog and then put away for next time just like their lead.

Do NOT buy this toy. We have a 60 lb lab who loves tug of war. He immediately went to work chewing this toy and was able to chew thru not only the flimsy red plastic but also the rubber, so much so that after 3 days when he played TOW with me, the toy broke in half and snapped back and hit him in the eye with such force that his eye swelled shut. The vet said he suffered ocular trauma and it cost us over $500 in vet bills and we weren't sure his eye would ever recover. Contacted Kong, they said they had never heard any complaints about this toy and were completely apathetic to my situation. Normally a huge fan of Kong products but this one is substandard and caused my normally very happy lab huge amounts of pain and suffering. AVOID THIS TOY FOR YOUR DOGS SAFETY!!!
