Our Black Lab absolutely loves these. She is a rescue dog and this goose/duck is the only thing that she came with. Since adopting her, this is the only toy that she refuses to shred like a paper-shredder in a Senators office who's got the Special Prosecutor calling. Here's some insights:

Pros:
- The dog loves these and refuses to destroy them. Probably just the preference of the dog, and has nothing to do with the toy itself.
- Pretty sturdy. We have to replace these about twice a year. Not bad since they get constant daily play with a black lab.
- Quacker inside seems to be lasting longer than previous models. They used to only last a couple weeks. Now they get thrown out (see cons below) with the quacker still working. Don't know if this is different construction or just that the dog isn't as hard on them...Don't know, but an observation.
- They don't tear up too bad with the use from our dog. Sometimes the seams will begin to rip. Haven't found anything crazy inside like another reviewer noted. Just poly-stuffing. These aren't going to withstand constant shredding. They're not meant to. They're the same type of material as a kids' stuffed-animal. Not meant for a beating. If your dog is a shredder, look for a fire-hose material toy. They last longer with shredders.
- Price, price, price! Seriously, these things are cheap for what you get. We always feel that we've got a good deal at a good price.

Cons:
- These things get gross! After about 6 months of constant daily attention from a 100lb Black Lab, they're ready for the great landfill in the sky. The "fur" soaks up slobber, dirt, hair, whatever else is out there. The dog is fine with it, but after so long, I just can't take it any more and replace it. I imagine you could wash it, but for the price, it's far easier to replace it. Plus, the "puppy" is enamored with opening her presents to discover a new goose (we get her both the goose and mallard ones for variety).

Overall, these things are awesome for the price point. They last reasonably long, and we aren't upset when we replace them. We feel like we have got our $'s worth. The Lab can't live without these, so we will be buying at least 4 of these per year!

My dog absolutely loves these bird toys, but he can be rough on them. He loves tearing the fluff and squeaker out of them when he's bored, so he's gone through quite a few ducks, pheasants, and geese, both small and big.
The pheasants hold up the longest as they have the shortest necks. The necks on the geese (where the black color connects to the grey) could use more durable stitching. That was the only part that broke on it though, and with a bit of stitching of my own, it was as good as new again.

If your dog chews things aggressively, go for something with less stuffing, but if they are gentle on their toys, they will love it!
(Even when there isn't a squeaker or fluff left in these, my dog still carries them around!)

I will definitely be buying again!

This goose is her favorite toy. It's good quality and the honk is much less annoying than a squeak.

Very sturdy toy- larger than I wxpected but my dog loves it and he has not "unfluffed" it yet

Good value. Cute. Not super durable though. My dog already ripped parts of its body off :/
