Perfect for petite pooches!
Color: Blue, Size: Small(6Pack)
Perfect size for a petite pooch! My pooch loves the donut and the fish bones. Cute colors. She’s 9lbs and these are just the right size for her and appear durable. Easy to clean and just soft/hard enough to prevent tooth chips and to keep engaged.

Puppy loves the toy! Great deal and product.
Color: Pink, Size: Small(6Pack)
Say hi to Daisy- a13 week year old pit. She absolutely loves the toys! She was using another chew toy and DESTROYED it so I needed a quick replacement. They’re very durable; however, she chipped one of the bones so I don’t anticipate it having TOO long of a life. For the price, it’s great and I recommend for any chewers you might have.
