Pull-apart dog toys

Price: ~$15
Purchased from: An online store I've forgotten (sorry!)
This toy lasted: ~2 weeks

Again, looking for dog toys that were different to those found in our local pet stores and supermarkets I stumbled upon the 'pull apart' range of toys that came in the 'vet', 'policeman', 'convict', 'devil' and 'mailman' (to name a few).

This dog toy seemed quite interesting as it was essentially made up of 3 separate parts which fitted together to make the toy. The main 'body' part (plush), the 'arms' and the 'legs' (or outfit/dress).

The idea is that dogs can chew on the toys and throw their heads from side to side wildly (as they do!) to split the toys up.
We purchased the 'pull apart vet'.

Dougal really liked this toy at first, but unfortunately it didn't last very long (unsupervised). As per usual he got his teeth into the main body park and started to pull out the fluff from the head.

But if supervised this could be a pretty good toy - you just need to keep putting it back together. It would be a good toy if it were made out of rubber, or a more durable material.

Dougal rates this toy:
