When our son traveled out of town for a concert, he came back bearing souvenir gifts for everyone in the household, including Watson, our year old Labrador Retriever. He brought Watson a Sid the Squid dog toy that he found in the Cracker Barrel shop on the way home. Watson loves the big squid!
Shifty Sid the Squid has legs that crackle which Watson really enjoys. No matter which leg he grabs, it makes a sound. Plus, if he bites the squid in the head, it squeaks. Because of the awesome sound effects, the squid is easily Watson's favorite indoor toy ever.
The first few nights "Sid" was here, Watson carried him to bed with him. Watson's bed is at the foot of our bed. Needless to say, as Watson would wake in the night or roll over, Sid would make a sound and Watson was on immediate alert, then attack. Both my husband and I woke up laughing at the Watson & Sid battles. It really was worth the disturbed rest.
The following morning Watson would bring Sid to the kitchen for breakfast. Sid didn't eat breakfast, but he waited patiently for playtime.
Now, a few weeks later, Sid often remains in "bed" until playtime, but he is still Watson's first choice for play.
Watson's squid is a different color than the one on Amazon, but they are the same toy otherwise.
BarkBox Shifty Sid the Squid Dog Toy - for Dogs | Plush Squeaky Toy with Crazy Crinkle & Whip-N-Flip Legs - Interactive Thrash & Play ToyCheck PriceBarkbox Shifty Sid the Squid Dog Toy
The Barkbox squid dog toy is 17" long. He has a fat mantle (body section above the head & eyes) that makes him easy for our big dog to carry. He can also be carried by his crinkling legs.
Sid the Squid is made of a soft, plush material that is gentle on a dogs mouth, as well as a human's body if they get in the way of the thrashing squid.
His eyes are embroidered instead of crafting or wiggy eyes that could be pulled out and swallowed. Therefore, Sid is safe for roughhousing with Watson. If his eyes were detachable, they would have been ripped out in minutes upon his arrival.
Clearly, the BarkBox Shifty Sid the Squid dog toy was/is an excellent choice for an 80+ pound puppy dog that enjoys having a durable interactive toy.
