Larry The Lobster Tuffy Toy Review

Below is a little information given to me about what Tuffys are...

What are Tuffys?

These imaginatively designed, 'Tuff' toys come in funky shapes and sizes, including Sea Creatures, Ultimates, Juniors and now in super cute Barnyard and Zoo styles too! With 28 fun toys to choose from, your dog will be entertained for hours!
All of the Tuffy toys are suitable for use in water and most squeak but there are some that don't, so if you or your dog are not keen on squeakers you haven't been left out!
As you will see from our gallery pictures, Tuffy's are not just for dogs but other pets and even Zoo animals can enjoy them too!

What makes Tuffy toys so Tuff?

The secret to the TUFFness is in the design; each TUFFY is made using up to four layers of different types of material and is filled with a non-toxic fibre. They are held together by up to seven rows of clever cross stitching, all bound up in a protective binding making it the ideal toy for even the most persistent of chewers!
   
In addition to all that TUFFness, TUFFY toys float and some squeak, in fact several of the toys contain more than one squeaker! As you would expect, all squeakers are enveloped in a special protective pocket of material, to be safe from your dogs efforts to “kill” the squeak!
 

The Tuff-Scale

That is why TUFFY created the ‘TUFF scale’, designed to show how tough one toy compares to another, to help owners choose the right toy for their dog.
The scale runs from ‘1 - cheap plush toy’ to ‘10 - mega strong’ and all TUFFY toys have a minimum rating of 5, so you can buy with confidence.
 
 
 

Larry The Lobster Review By Harvey

 
Harvey was lucky enough to have been gifted Larry the Lobster to test out. Now Harvey goes through toys like a knife through butter. Tuffy toys last for an extended period (longer than most toys hence the name). It boasted no stuffing and the extra layers of stitching...
 
Unfortunately, 20 minutes after giving it to him I found him in the middle of the living room surrounded by stuffing. With both squeakers pulled out of the claws.

One good thing about the toy is he likes to play tug with it and has held up well to being pulled and shaken.
 
Sadly I would not recommend this toy for dogs that like to destroy toys and need something that will last for longer than 10 minutes. Larry is ranked 8 on the tuffy scale so is expected to withstand a Boxer playing around. At £15+ for one toy, its a very expensive "cheap" toy to throw away.
