My dogs love toys and today I’ve got one for review from a company called Pheenx pets. The Foxy Dog squeeker toy is a big squeaker shaped fox with a crinkly tail. The toy is large and my dogs love it, but sadly in was dead in about ten minutes as my dog Casey has this thing for squeakers. It’s a great toy, it’s cute and my dogs do love it though.

The Review:
The toy comes wrapped in plastic for shipping and when you open it you’ll find a cardboard tag attached to it.
The Foxy Dog toy is pretty big at about 23 inches long and about 5 inches across the body. The body is just one big air bladder or the squeaker and the tail crinkles like cellophane so it has two noise makers in it really. The tail is very soft and furry while the body has what feels like corduroy material over it.
I think the Foxy Dog is cute, it really does look like a Fox and it seems well made. There is no funny smell to it like some toys have I’ve noticed.
I have two Pit Bulls and they love toys but you never know what they’re going to do with it.
Samantha is a smaller one, she’s dark brown, and she loves toys, she’s like a little kid really and she was very happy to play with it and with me with it.
Casey is Sam’s sister and she is bit more laid back and relaxed and I never know what she’ll do with a toy. She has some stuffed animals in her sleeping cage that she has had for about two years now as she protects them and sleeps with them but she has this thing about squeakers she has to get them out and at first it didn’t seem like she was going to do that with the Fox but about ten minutes later the fox was dead, she ripped the squeaker out and chewed it apart.
So we now have the fox minus the squeaker and I can still play with it with Sam as she likes the crinkly tail and likes to chase it with me pulling it. She’s weird as she kind of acts like cat almost chasing things around but the fox might be down but he’s not out, he’s just a lot thinner now.
So did my dogs like it? Yes they loved it.
Will it hold up to a Pitt Bull? Nope, not at all, but I didn’t expect it to as there’s not much that can hold up to one.
I was hoping this might be one of those toys that my dog Casey would like and want to snuggle and protect but she couldn’t resist the squeaker, she just has to get them out for whatever reason.
The Pheenx Pets Foxy dog toy is a cool toy, I like it and so do my dogs but depending on your dog it might not last long.
To be fair it’s not sold as something rugged and indestructible and it was an experiment on my part to see how my dogs would react to it. They liked it yes, but sadly Casey liked it a bit too much.
Pros:
+Very cute
+Well made
+Inexpensive
+Large
Cons:
-Doesn’t stand up to a Pitt Bull
