Favorite toys!
Size: Small, Color: Assorted Color
These are soft, squeaky balls, my Frenchies love them. They fit my Frenchie’s mouth. They are thin and the quality is amazing.

My dogs LOVE these toys!
Size: Small, Color: Assorted Color
These toys squeak loudly and my dogs all love them! My small dogs can eventually get the squeaker out but still carry them around and want us to throw them. They are something I keep on hand (with a supply of new ones available) to entertain them! They are not expensive and will always be their favorites.

Still going strong

My dogs chew apart EVERYTHING, but all six of these are still in great shape. They prefer and fight over the purple one though for unknown reasons. 🤣
