Tug of War Dog Toy Worth Its Weight in Kibble

Okay, it might not be worth its weight in kibble, but it is definitely worth the moderate price for these three toys!

Yankers—Dog Toy Series Review

This tug-of-war toy is the best (non-rubber one) that we have found *so far.* For some reason, Riley loves the cloth tugs but won’t put the rubber ones in her mouth, so we are stuck with the ones more easily destructible.

Riley loves her snake and fish Yankers. Unfortunately, her alligator died a premature death.

The three toys are made extra strong, there is a ton of stitching which holds up well to dog yanking.

Stitched inside of the toy is a durable “belt.” The belt reinforces the toy providing for yanking fun.

The Fish Yankers Finally Bit the Dust

Yanking with Riley:

Riley loves playing fetch and tug-of-war with the yankers. They are her favorite toys (except for bouncy balls). Unfortunately, she also loves chewing and tearing up the yankers when we are not watching. So, when we are not playing tug, we keep the yankers in the closet. The toy comes out during play sessions, and only when we are watching. With this method, two yankers lasted a whole year!! (The alligator lost a leg very early on due to unsupervised chewing. Poor alligator!) It is now time to buy another set…but we are extremely happy with the quality of this toy.

3.5 out of 5 paws!  (Because you cannot leave your dog alone with this toy.  It is for yanking only and not chewing!)

Riley’s Review:

I play with my snake and my fish a lot. They are good friends of mine. Dad stands at the top of the stairs and then the fish gets away. The fish always tries to fly right down the stairs! This is no problem because I catch him and bring him back. But don’t get me wrong, before I bring him back I run around the house triumphantly because I’ve caught him so easily.

Meanwhile, that snake is a slippery girl. She is hardest to yank because I loose my toothhold every now and again. Snake has no legs to get a good grip on.  But I can still yank her!! But when I loose my toothhold, then mommy wins the yanking contest! Of course I let her win other times. She does not know that. When I win, I take the snake and shake it really hard. I shake it back and forth as fast as possible just to make sure it knows I’ve caught it! Then my head hurts because I’ve been whipping it back and forth so quickly. This hurt head is called “brain freeze”. Ouch.

I added a photo of me catching the fish from his spot.  After I caught it I ran so fast I was invisible.  See the photo for evidence of my invisibility.
