The crackle comes from an internal component that activates when the stick is bent, squeezed, or chewed. It's a quieter alternative to squeaker toys, which can work well for dogs that get overstimulated by loud squeaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ2: What sizes does this toy come in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e It comes in medium (7 inches) and large (11 inches). The medium works well for moderate-sized breeds, while the large gives bigger dogs more length to grip and carry. Pick the size based on your dog's breed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ3: Can I choose the color?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the color ships at random.

Because it doesn't have a loud squeaker and the crackle sound is more subdued, it works well for both indoor and outdoor play. It's a good option if you want a fetch toy that doesn't create the sharp squeak that some squeaker toys produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ6: How does the bounce work on this toy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e The stick has an erratic bounce, meaning it doesn't bounce in a straight, predictable line like a ball would. This makes fetch more interesting since your dog has to react to where the stick actually goes rather than where a typical toy would land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ7: Is the crackle sound loud?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the crackle is meant to be a quieter alternative to a squeaker. It produces a distinct crackling noise rather than a sharp squeak, which makes it more suitable for households or situations where a loud squeaking toy isn't ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KONG","offers":[{"title":"Medium","offer_id":44530412454049,"sku":"PCS2","price":21.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":44530412486817,"sku":"PCS1","price":27.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/2446\/5313\/files\/kong-squeezz-crackle-stick-toy-for-dogs-color-varies-dog-toys-227.jpg?v=1779130219","url":"https:\/\/hordypaw.shop\/en-ca\/products\/kong-squeezz-crackle-stick-toy-for-dogs","provider":"HardyPaw","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
