I was skeptical, buying the sight unseen because my dog is pretty strong. I thought she would probably break it in no time at all. Surprisingly, this is very well-made. The pole is a nice heavy duty metal, but light in your hand. The first part of the cord is a rounded nylon type of rope that is very strong. My dog chews on it like crazy when she is playing and she hasn’t even roughed it up at all. The handle is a nice soft rubber that has some protruding grip areas so you can keep a good hold on it. I would say the only not so good part of it is in the middle where you screw the two pieces of the pole together. It can work itself loose while you’re using it. But a wrap of duct tape will keep it secure. This is well worth the money and much much nicer than I thought it was going to be.

For me and my dog, playing in our smallish home— it’s been raining a lot–I found that this ‘flirt pole’ was too large for indoors. AND, my dog wasn’t ever interested in it. (She likes me to hold a raggedly “knot” & to play keep-away, (also I let her win that ‘knot’ too). This is a very well made Flirt pole if your dog enjoys such a thing. — I returned this one which was easy as my dog never put it in her mouth. Yes, she was that disinterested :((

My dog needs toys that stimulate her mind, so I got this as a suggestion from a trainer. She has enjoyed chasing it like a cat does! The end toy has come apart, but I just retied some of the pieces. It is a stretchy fleece. She has also enjoyed chewing the plastic coating off of the rope part, so I am not a fan of that aspect of it.

I noted people with high drive, large dogs, like Mals and GSD, complaining because this device broke. I think that is par for the course with a dog of that size. So if you have one of those, don’t buy this. But honestly, for a medium to small dog it is fantastic. I have smaller, but equally drivey herding dogs, that dearly love this and hang on for dear life for a game of tug when they catch the critter. If you don’t push the envelope, this device is a great value for money. Well made, can be broken down for storage, and sturdy, with the option of changing lures very easily. Of the many devices like this that I have owned, this one is by far the best. I have had it for 18 months now and it looks new. My guys play style is “take no prisoners,” so it gets a work out.

The stick is very sturdy and the fun is unlimited. My 9-month over the top standard poodle just loves it. Amazing toy! This is better than a stick, a ball, a frisbee or a cat!

LIKES: The video doesn’t show how much fun they really have with this toy. They LOOOVE it. I was taking it easy b/c the floor was slippery, but I couldn’t find the vid we took outdoors… they go crazy for this thing and they never seem to tire of it; excellent quality; durable; the pole has weight to it and is sturdy; keeps them entertained until I get tired; they’ll play with it together and get super furious during tug-of-war. Really, this thing is great.
DISLIKES: No dealbreakers, but the rope is like fleece blanket material so it is beginning to fray… the good thing is that you can attach whatever you want to the end of it to play with the dogs – they don’t care what it is, as long as it’s acting like prey and they can chase it; ISE CAUTION: if you leave your dog/s unsupervised with this toy, they may run the pole into furniture, walls, sliding glass doors, etc., and it could damage or break some items because the pole is hefty; as with any toy, if a dog is hellbent on destroying it, they will, so this is not impervious to your pup’s killer instinct or high prey drive, but it will definitely make them work for it. Haven’t played with a larger dog yet, but I imagine they’d dig it.
As always, if anything changes, I will update this review.

My puppy loves playing with this toy. We use it especially when it rains to exercise him as it’s to wet to go walking

Backyard play used to be jumping up at me. This toy made both of our playtime much more enjoyable. I have a standard poodle who can easily reach 6ft up. This keeps her entertained for as long as I have the energy for. Also, it is incredibly well constructed, and will last forever. The rope section can be removed and washed. Definitely worth the cost

Well this is what the toy looks like after 18 days of playing with a 3 month old Belgian Malinois mix puppy who weighs about 30 lbs. This is his favorite toy! I just run it along the ground in front of him so he can chase it. He plays tug o war as well. It’s pretty beat up after about 3 weeks of usage – maybe 15-30 minutes a day. The pole and rope *(see more below) is very strong. I don’t care for the ergonomic part of the grip and find myself never aligning my fingers in it so I just hold below it. As others have mentioned the middle of the pole can come loose while playing but it hasn’t been annoying enough for me to put locktite on it, I just tighten it every few minutes by hand. It would be better to have saved money on design and used a normal grip and add another replacement fleece rope to the package instead. It’s kind of heavy too but I guess that’s what makes it strong – it bends like a fishing pole when he pulls on it sometimes but only about an inch or so of curvature, it doesn’t feel like it would break. The fleece rope toy portion isn’t too delicate but once it starts to lose it’s form it unravels quickly which is why I think the kit should include 2 for the cost. Replacements are available for a reasonable price (2 for $12.99) and I’ve ordered a few spares. I’m a little concerned about the rope loop that appears to be stitched together and then covered with a plastic shrink wrap of sorts. The plastic on mine has started to become shredded and will likely come off soon. It’s hard to see from the angle that the rope is facing in the pic I took but you can see where the plastic is damaged and it’s way worse on the other side of the rope where it only has about 50% coverage remaining. It looks like the stitching is pretty good though so hopefully the plastic isn’t the main structural component of the rope loop. Decided to add a pic of the rope loop damage and stitching for reference. If your dog doesn’t play fetch or even if they do I still recommend this toy.

Got my lil man ripping and running chasing this thing. The rope is thick and the stick feels durable. Am not sure how it will hold up for a bigger sized dog (above 25 pounds).
