Fun in a Great Toy & Fantastic Bargain!
Style: Mummy with Organs
LOVE THIS DOG TOY!! We have 5 rescue dogs, a 13# little one, & 4 lg ones from 70-100 lbs! This toy is fantastic for all of them! It’s so much fun pulling out the various inner “organs” & handing them out (when we first got it)! The dogs were So Excited getting the different parts & squeaking them like Crazy! The main big mummy (10”+) squeaks & crinkles, which goes over really well, too! The nice thing is the center of the mummy, where all the parts are held, is opened/closed via a sturdy zipper! Unlike other items with “stuffed parts” that have Velcro strips to hold the items inside, that ends up all wet & destroyed by chewing, the zipper allows me to open it & close it. This allows my smarter dogs more of a challenge as they can’t just easily open it & get the items inside pulled out a few routine times & then get bored & just destroy them & the Velcro! It also allows me to keep some of the smaller items that I like to keep intact for my small 13# dog, inside the mummy body where they’re protected from my Pit Bull mixes who chew the small toys like gum (I supervise, of course!) destroying the squeakers inside after a few good chomps! This toy is very well made! Despite being aggressively played with by very lg dogs with very strong jaws, every toy (except the set of lungs which have small sections holding them together) has held together, which is a big surprise! Most toys last minutes in this house! The mummy has held up well, with the zipper closed, too! This is such a great bargain for All the toys you get in this set & even You will have fun pulling out the insides & going back to your old High School Biology class to figure out what organ is which! My husband & I had a blast along with our 5 pups playing with this fun set of well made toys! We’re buying another set to have for back up once this set bites the dust! Yeah, it’s That Great!! If you have a small dog, or even a couple, there are so many smaller toys that you can keep some of them aside & introduce them later! A really Great Bargain & Lots of Fun!

cute, fun and great for dogs that don't instantly destroy toys
Style: Mummy with Organs
The dog LOVED this toy! She loved it to pieces she played with it so much! The organs and the mummy are very cute. There are a variety of different sound/ textures to the pieces. The zipper was the first thing that broke after enough shaking by the dog. It is neat that you get so many pieces in one toy and that they all fit inside the mummy's belly zipper. It is a stuffie soft toy, so if your dog is a squeaker harvester, this toy will not last long. It is well made though of your dog isn't a toy destroyer. I like that different types of stuffing the pieces have. Some are krinkly and some have squeakers.

Great toy!
Style: Pilot Pig
My dogs love it! Even though they are smaller (~16 lbs), they had fun trying to open the pig up and get to the other toys which are much more their size. I bought a similar one, the mummy, for Halloween and they loved that one too. It's rather durable - thick fabric, well-constructed. I could see larger dogs not destroying it as easily as other plush toys. Would recommend!

Adorable and Fun BUT the Zipper Can Cause a Safety Hazard
Style: Mummy with Organs, Style: Mummy with Organs
My dog is having a blast with this Halloween toy from Nocciola! The mummy is large, soft, and delightfully spooky—such a fun way to spoil your pup for the season. It has a zipper that opens up to reveal all the “insides” you’d expect from a proper mummy: lungs, heart, liver, bone, and more. Each little piece is well made, with some squeaking and others crinkling to keep dogs engaged and entertained. The only drawback I ran into is the zipper. My pup zeroed in on it and managed to chew it off within minutes. Depending on your dog’s chewing style, the zipper could be a concern. That said, the toy is still a hit in our house. My dog loves digging out the little pieces and then watching me put them back so she can start all over again. She also enjoys playing with the smaller toys individually, which gives her even more ways to stay busy and entertained.

Durable, entertaining and quality
Style: Pilot Pig
I got this for my neph-dog and he was OBSESSED. The ability to rip the guts out was exactly what he needed after a long day of being cute. The quality is great and he has been able to rip out its guts countless times, throw a treat or two in there? Yeah that's the best day ever for him. Humor and durability? 5 stars for me
