okay overall
I recently bought the Outward Hound Hedgehogz Plush Dog Toy for my small dog, and it’s quickly become one of her favorites! The toy is perfectly sized for smaller dogs, providing just the right amount of softness and playfulness without being too big or cumbersome for her to carry around. The plush material is gentle on her teeth and gums, making it an ideal option for dogs that love to chew. My dog absolutely loves the squeaker inside, which keeps her engaged and entertained for hours as she plays and squeaks it repeatedly. The cute hedgehog design is both adorable and fun, and it adds a little whimsy to her toy collection. Despite the soft exterior, this toy has proven to be quite durable, even though my dog can be pretty rough with her toys. It holds up well to her chewing and tossing, and I haven’t noticed any stuffing coming out, which is a common issue with plush toys. The small size also makes it perfect for fetch or just for her to carry around in her mouth as she plays. I also appreciate that it’s lightweight, making it easy for her to play with independently or for us to toss around the yard. The bright, cheerful colors add a nice touch, and it’s easy to spot if it gets lost in the grass. Additionally, the toy is easy to clean, as it’s machine washable, so I can keep it fresh after those messy play sessions. Overall, the Outward Hound Hedgehogz Plush Dog Toy is a hit in our household—it’s fun, durable, and provides endless entertainment for my dog. If you’re looking for a cute, engaging, and safe toy for your pup, I highly recommend this one!

Larger than expected
Was not expecting it to be as large as it is. I have a smallish-medium sized boxer and it’s a bit big for her to handle. That said, she loves it. Probably should have gotten a medium sized toy, but she’s not complaining so neither will I. Pretty well made. Not Kyjen quality, but still very much worth the money I had spent on it.

I buy a hedgehog for all my foster dogs
This particular toy has always been a favorite of all the dogs I care for. It is a good quality toy, dogs don’t tend to rip it so shreds, squeaker is not annoying, great value. I have bought several of these to go with the fur babies when they find their forever homes.

Fun And Cute
My puppies absolutely love their hedgehog plush dog toys! They’re super cute and the squeaker inside keeps them entertained for hours. It’s always so fun to watch them carry these little hedgehogs around and play tug of war. The only downside is that they don’t seem to last very long with my active puppies. They get destroyed pretty quickly. If the durability could be improved, this would be the perfect toy! But overall, it’s still a great option for keeping my dogs happy and engaged.

Doesn’t last long but Fave toy
These don’t last long with our American Pit-bull Terrier, but it’s definitely his favorite toy. Probably bought more than twenty of these over the last couple of years. Buying on amazon saves a bunch over the pet store.

Cute.
Smaller than I thought but it worked out for my small dog. Perfect size for him. Squeak isn’t too loud, so that’s nice. He will play with it for a long time flopping it around. Seems to be of good quality because he chews a lot and it’s still good to go. It keeps him busy bouncing it around. I like that there are no plastic pieces he can chew off.

Easily made bald.
This toy is really cute and the perfect size for my GSP to carry around in his mouth. But, if you have a chewer, your dog will pull out the porcupine hair. Its a fun game to see who can pull out the most hair (between my GSP and Pittie Mix), so I threw the toy away. If your dog doesnt like to try to destroy things, this toy is cute and squeaks.

Not indestructible, but close
This toy quickly had its legs chewed off, but other than that it has held up very well. It’s too fat for my Lab to get her mouth around it, so she drags it around by its nose. It would be too big for a small dog, but is a good toy for large dogs that are hardy chewers. I dislike the sound it makes; I guess it’s meant to be a hedgehog sound, but it sounds like my dog is strangling. The first time I heard it I thought the dog was throwing up. I could do without the sound effects, but my dog seems to enjoy it.

The puppy I bought this toy loved it too much. He immediately had torn off a foot and proceeded to pull out the stuffing. Ptoably not a good toy for a puppy.

Esta bien para perros que no son tan agresivos con su mordida haha, mi perro lo destrozo a los 5 minutos.

Me gustó mucho, es muy lindo pero sobretodo le gustó mucho a mi perrhija jaja sinceramente no tenía la mínima esperanza de que durara completo más de un par de horas y no por el juguete ya que es de muy buena calidad el material es bueno y las costuras están fuertes, pero le he comprado otros juguetes y terminan sin alguna parte en algunas horas ya que a ella le gusta mucho mordisquear sus juguetes En fin este juguetepeluche le ha durado mucho y lo amó desde que lo jugó por primera vez y lo cuida mucho. Espero dure mucho más tiempo en buenas condiciones. Ah también me gustó que el ruido que hace cuando lo aprieta es fuerte pero no en exceso asi que no la llega a espantar en ningún momento.

A beautiful dog toy, does everything it say!! Love the grunting noise. But my dog doesn’t play much with toys (not the company’s fault) so i can’t judge on that, thought i might have tempted him!! But no. A very good well made toy, for dogs that love toys. The price is excellent for such a well made toy.
