Please please always keep Tristan Turtle in sock! Bought Tristan for my Shih Tzu puppy and to put it mildly, he is IN LOVE! I just purchased 4 more. Our pup is now 3 years old and he seeks Tristan Turtle out daily! When he gets home from doggie daycare he RUNS to get Tristan Turtle every time! He plays with other toys sometimes but he definitely has a strong connection with Tristan Turtle ;-)

I have ordered 6 of these in the past year. I have 3 cavalier spaniels and for whatever reason this is the toy they all choose for quiet time before bed. I have to order 3 at a time one for each although being puppies they always want each other’s. (And by puppies I mean dogs as they are all past the teething stage but still love this one).

My 10-week old Papillon enjoys playing with and chewing on Tristan's different surfaces. I purchased Bibiana as another chew toy for her, but Bibiana only lasted for a few days before my pup was close to chewing chunks of her feet off. Tristan's plastic is harder than Bibiana's, and at most my pup's teeth have left scratches on his plastic surfaces. If you are choosing between the two, I would recommend buying Tristan.

I have a 12 week old Golden Retriever that I’ve had for 5 weeks. I purchased this toy before we picked him up and it has consistently been his go to toy every single day. I think a variety of toys is good, he does enjoy other things throughout the day, however this is definitely his top pick. There are so many different shapes and textures for him to explore, and it’s all very durable. He’ll sit down for several minutes with this one toy. If you’re trying to not go overboard with too many toys for your large breed puppy (because you know they’ll grow so quickly!), I can’t recommend this one enough.

Both our 1 year old and 3 month old pup LOVED this toy. Great for teaching how to share, too!
