DuraToy Stripey Piggy Crinkle Squeaky Dog Toy
What makes this one different
A smooth pile, easy on the mouth and easy to carry about.
Ask around any group of dog owners and pigs come up more than they should. Something about the shape, or possibly the noise — nobody's quite sure, but the pattern is real.
This one is pink, striped and textured, with the noise spread deliberately about: crackly plastic in the arms, legs and ears, and a squeaker in the middle of the body. Grabbing a leg gets a crunch, grabbing the middle gets a squeak. It's a better bit of design than it sounds, because it stops a dog fixating on one seam until it fails.
Soft plush outer
A smooth pile, easy on the mouth and easy to carry about.
Crunch as well as squeak
A crunchy lining gives a second noise, so there are two reasons to keep at it.
Light enough to carry
At 142g it is easy for a dog to pick up, shake and bring back to you.
Duratoy: durable dog chew toys in natural rubber
Every Duratoy is moulded from natural rubber that is non-allergenic and non-toxic, so the whole range suits dogs of all breeds. The shapes differ because dogs differ: some want something to gnaw, some want a game, and plenty want both.
For keen chewers and everyday dental care
The Heavy Duty Dumbbell is the one for dogs that chew everything: 17.5 x 7cm and 282g in thick natural rubber, made for medium to large dogs. The Knobbly Bone gives most dogs a slim chew that sits easily between the paws. Both carry raised bumps that help brush away loose plaque and massage the gums as your dog chews.
For treats and problem-solving
The Dumbbell Treat Dispenser is sized for puppies and small dogs, with a squeaker at the other end. The Oval Treat suits larger dogs and is bright enough to spot outdoors, and the Bowling Pin takes treats and wobbles for fetch.
For teething and fetch
The knobbly Faberge egg massages sore gums during teething. The Giggle Ball giggles as it rolls, and the Rugby Ball comes in two sizes for an unpredictable bounce.
All Duratoy toys wash clean with water, or a little mild soap. Supervise play, choose a size your dog cannot fit entirely in their mouth, and replace any toy that becomes worn or damaged.
How it is put together
What it is made of, and what is inside it.
At 142g it's light enough to be thrown and shaken with real enthusiasm, and the textured pile gives teeth something to work at.
The usual honest note: this is a plush toy, the maker says it isn't indestructible, and we agree. Supervise, and replace it once the plastic starts showing.

Why owners pick this one
What it actually does around the house.
Soft plush outer
A smooth pile, easy on the mouth and easy to carry about.
Crunch as well as squeak
A crunchy lining gives a second noise, so there are two reasons to keep at it.
Light enough to carry
At 142g it is easy for a dog to pick up, shake and bring back to you.
Suits
Moderate chewers, supervised play.
Is it right for your dog?
Worth reading before you buy.
Supervised play
This is a plush toy, not a chew to leave a dog alone with. Stay in the room.
Moderate chewers
A dog who sets out to destroy a soft toy will manage it. For serious chewers, our natural rubber DuraToys are the right shelf.
Dogs first, cats at a push
Sized and built for dogs. Some cats take to them, but that is not what they are for.
Care and safety
The short version: watch it, and retire it when it goes.
This toy is not indestructible. Supervise your dog during play and discard the toy if it becomes ripped or damaged.
Check it over regularly
Look at the seams and any rope or trim before each play session. Damage gets worse quickly once it starts.
Retire it when it goes
Once a seam opens or the filling shows, take it away. A torn toy is a swallowing risk, not a cheaper toy.
Keep the squeaker inside
The squeaker is a small part. If it works loose, the toy is finished.
Frequently asked questions
What owners ask before they buy.
A crunchy lining inside the toy, alongside the squeaker. Two noises rather than one.
95% polyester, 5% EVA (as printed). Inside: Squeaker in the middle, plastic in the arms, legs and ears
No. It is a plush toy for supervised play, and a determined dog will get through it. Check it over regularly and replace it once the seams start to go.
Yes. Every toy in the DuraToy plush range has one.
Not really. For a dog that chews hard, our natural rubber DuraToy range is built for the job; this range is not.
