If your dog treats every new plush like a 30-second demolition challenge, you probably don’t buy “cute” toys anymore. You buy whatever looks like it might survive a single afternoon. Bark’s Penny the Pineapple 2-in-1 Squeaky Plush is one of the rare under-$15 dog toys that keeps showing up in power-chewer households — and, according to one reviewer, was “still intact nearly three months later.”
On the outside, Penny looks like a goofy plush pineapple with big cartoon eyes and a quilted “peel.” Inside, there’s a textured, spiky squeaker ball that only appears once your dog rips through the outer layer. One shopper summed up the appeal in one line: “Pup loved the toy! Such a good idea of the tear away.” For dogs who live to shred, the built-in second act buys you more playtime without buying a second toy.
Owners of serious chewers say that layered design matters. “My dog is a strong chewer. She has destroyed guaranteed indestructible toys in five minutes,” one reviewer wrote. “First, the pineapple is her favorite toy. Second, other than no longer squeeking, the toy is still intact nearly three months later.” That spiky inner ball becomes the backup toy once the peel is gone, so the fun doesn’t end the second the seams give way.
Fans of Bark toys in general feel the same way. One dog parent wrote, “Bark Box toys are the BEST! … My power chewer eventually gets through the outer shell and then the inside one lasts double as long.” They also called out the practical details: no stuffing to explode across your living room, sturdy stitching that survives two dogs pulling “in opposite directions,” and a squeaker ball that keeps things interesting even after the fabric shows wear.
Smaller pups get in on the chaos, too. “My Yorkie loves these type of toys,” another shopper said. “He does play with it before he tears it apart. I love the idea of no stuffing.” The crinkle fabric, squeak, and textured core give them plenty to investigate without a snowstorm of fluff.
At around $14, Penny the Pineapple sits comfortably in the “I’ll try it” price range — especially if you’re tired of replacing toys every weekend. If your dog’s toy bin looks like a pile of fabric crime scenes, this goofy fruit might be the next experiment worth tossing their way.
