Any problems with chewing? I imagine a puppy would shred this.

My puppy has never made any attempt to destroy it. She snuggles with it at night and sometimes drags it out of her crate during the day to play with it, but mostly she just uses it as a pillow.

No problems of shredding with those I know have used it. The stage of life when this may be most useful could be before a puppy is teething, or with older rescue dogs.

My Australian Shepherd puppy never chewed it. He would always just snuggle up and go right to sleep!

Didnt have any issues with shredding and our puppy can destroy any toy on market in a matter of minutes. Its not made out of anything special I think our puppy just liked the comfort factor it provided more than the chew factor?

It seems very durable. The Velcro portion is extremely strong. Our dog is now 8 months old, and he plays with it often. He has not ripped it apart.

I think that honestly depends on your dog. Mine (Havanese) chews on it a little at a time for about a week or so.

I think a puppy would figure out a way to chew through the mesh. Having three dogs at home, I can say our trainer told us not to consider giving a "chewing pup" a bed until they were 2 years old. ( we were told that after going through countless beds! Lol ). We just used old or inexpensive blankets or towels for their beds.

It's not a shape that would encourage chewing, Our dog is a chewer but has never attempted to chew the bob-a-lot. She doesn't play with it as often now as she did at the start, but it always has treats in it and she often gives it a nudge as she passes by and grabs a treat or two

My puppies do the same. I purchased the large pad because of two pups, so I have a big mess when they shred it. I just scold them and try to watch them. They don't do it all of the time. Just when they are bored. It is happening less frequently, thank goodness.

Probably not puppy proof if you have a chewer. It has plastic covered mesh for doors and windows. We got it for our 85 lb. huskita and she has not ever chewed on it but she is pretty mellow and 4 yrs. old. I love this kennel.

The long term answer on that is NO. My dogs are just passed baby chewing age but they are Lab mixes and the breed is known for chewing especially the first 3 years. I just threw away the two I bought in shreds. They did last quite a few months though.

The jerky is sliced really thin and it is soft. It shouldn't be a problem for your dog to chew. I cut the pieces into smaller bite size pieces for my dog. Your dogs will love it!

It wouldn't be easy but if she is persistent yes she will eventually pull this apart. Just and FYI the gel in this hardened before it saw even a year of use. I wouldn't recommend it regardless of the chewing.

I have a 5 month old dane. I ordered this a few months ago and while it's certainly chewed and not "pretty" it is fully functional and while she has chewed it she has not gotten off any chunks or anything for me to have concern that she could choke or swallow any bits, it's just rough with logs of teeth / chew marks.

The Varsity Ball is hard plastic & depending on the size of the ball you purchase, I do not think it would be possible for your dog to shred any of the plastic off. I bought the large Varsity Ball for my 60lb pitbull who is a strong, aggressive chewer and he's not been able to make any dents in this ball. It's just too big for them to get their mouths around it and the plastic is too hard. My dog loves it and would chase it forever if we'd let him!

It is all relative to the current and ultimate size of your puppy. It will last because of it's durability and your puppy will not be able to chew it off. That is what really counts.

My Africa Grey chews wood like crazy. He will pick at the inside plastic lining but it is tough. I suppose he might get through it if left in there for a whole day or more but so far it just has a rough spot. The plastic is very durable. So just for transporting and visiting it is great!

one of my 4 dogs is a chewer and totally destroyed it. It did take him a while, but - yes, it is not impossible.

I understand your concern, however my experience with this Kong Balls is that they are virtually indestructible. I have two adult male German shepherds that play with theirs continually, and have yet to see this ball shredded to ribbons like so many other toys. We bought this product about 8 months ago and its still going strong!

I was it weekly and have had it for six months (for my dog) It is holding up very well. As long as the puppy doesn't chew it up it should be fine.

My puppy is 7 months old now and chews everything but the doggloo. It is very durable. I would recommend this dog house above everything else I have seen
