My two year old golden retriever LOVES this, “Mr. Bear”. The only change I would recommend is the ears - she chewed those off the first day! The squeaker also stopped squeaking after the first day - but that’s no problem - she’s a squeaker destroyer, and at least with Mr. Bear, I didn’t have stuffing and a squeaker on the floor! She enjoys chewing on him, having him thrown for her, and just carrying him around sometimes. Good, solid toy.
