KONG Cozie Ali Alligator Plush Dog Toy - Soft, Squeaky Cuddles for Indoor Play

Steve O.: From the bright green colored material to the squeakers they can't get enough of it. I must say, if your dog is a heavy chewer, it won't last long and keep an eye on the fillings or ripped pieces (like with all toys). Oh, if you get a big size, it's perfect for them to "go to town" with instead of your pillows lol

Asha Thykootathil: The squeaker wasnt working. My pup still loves it, though the squeaks while he is playing with it.

Tannedhaggis: So far to good. My only issue is it becomes damp quickly with dog slopper and take a long time to dry out.

Mushu: So my dog has had the affectionately named mr crocodile for 3 months now. It has lost its tail bit has not required any other surgery so I mark that up as a massive win.
I have trained my once destructive dog to not chew on stuffed toys (if he starts I removed the stuffed toy and gave him a bone/ other appropriate chew toy) but this is well made and he loves it. only the purple kong duck is prefered

rebeccarebecca: This crocodile was a gift for our recently spade puppy, it provided her lots of comfort whilst she was recovering. And hasn't been torn to pieces yet!

Lars Mies: Es handelt sich hierbei bereits um das Zweite von mir erworbene Exemplar, da das alte Modell nach langem Gebrauch ausgedient hatte (Quietschte nicht mehr).
Bei den nahezu täglich stattfindenden Liebkosungen durch unseren AmStaff ist dies jedoch kein Manko des Produktes, im Gegenteil es ist überaus robust und langlebig!

Andrew StarkweatherAndrew Starkweather: My dog (Erebus) absolutely loves this toy. He is a 1 1/2 year old lab (75lbs) and usually destroys any stuffed toy within a few hours, but he is far more gentle with Gator and brings him everywhere he goes.
I work from home and Erebus brings Gator out when he first wakes up, naps with it while I work, and takes it to bed with him. I have to take it away from him when he goes outside so it doesn't get muddy and dirty.
Even though he is more careful with this toy, it still gets plenty of play. We got the first as a Christmas present and nearly 4 months later (daily toss & fetch) still doesn't have a single tear. The squeaker JUST broke last week, so I bought two more as backups (he still loves the old one without the squeaker), nervous they might be discontinued.
This toy is high quality, feels durable, and has a stronger fabric than most, but isn't indestructible. I think most medium-large sized dogs would get plenty of use out of this, but if your pup is known for aggressively shredding toys this /might/ not be the one for you.

Sam-I-AmSam-I-Am: My 6½ month old puppy picked this toy out himself. We were at a puppy training class at my local Petco and he kept grabbing at this particular toy every time we walked past it. I don't know if this interest was due to the color or shape, but there was something about the green alligator that got his attention above all the other KONG toys displayed there alongside this. He stole it off the display so many times that the fur on the toy was getting stiff from his drool and I felt obligated to buy it. Turns out I am glad I did because it has become one of his favorites and has proven durable for a plush toy.

In the "Ali the Alligator" listing photo there appears to be something tied around the neck of the toy. At first I thought the version shown in the photo had eyebrows but after looking at it more closely I think it is just a ribbon that might have once come tied around the neck. Mine did not have this and judging from customer photos their toys did not have this either.

I am uploading some of my own customer photos along with this review:
1. The toy laid on top of a ruler and measuring tape and as indicated in the listing it is 9" from the nose of the alligator...

Altbot: First off, be aware that if your dog wants a stuff toy opened up, s/he will succeed. We have two schipperke pups and one older heffalump that play with these daily. They all get split open eventually, some faster than others and I just finished stitching back up a pile of them. Each toy has its ups and downs, but I've made a list of what I've gotten and my opinion on them.

Gator - By far the favorite of the dogs and longest lasting. We have two of these.

Rabbit - This one lasted an evening. We immediately cut off the whiskers, these just don't belong on a dog toy. If you cut one end, they should pull completely through. The pups went straight for the cotton tail and then ripped it open further.

Rhino - Lasted a fair amount of time, but the horn got chewed immediately (our pups like focal points). After a patch job, it's now a purple hippo and seems to be better off that way.

Blue Dog - Did not last long as the stitching on the back came undone, but after sewing it back up it seems to be lasting.

Pink Elephant - The tusks have been chewed apart, but it hasn't needed stitching yet.

Moose - Part of an antler had to be amputated, but it's...
