Why we chose it

No stuffing inside is the detail that actually matters here — it is the difference between a chewed-up toy making a mess of fluff everywhere and one that just goes quiet. Two play modes in one toy is also a genuinely useful trick rather than a marketing line.

Full description

Most tug toys ask a dog to pick one mode and stick with it. This one changes shape depending on what the dog wants to do with it — pulled out for tugging and tossing, or folded so the tail tucks inside and it becomes a ball for fetch instead.

The Hide-a-Tail Snake is a soft plush toy built with two layers of fabric to stand up to energetic play, with a squeaker and crinkle material inside for sound, and no stuffing, which keeps mess to a minimum if it does get chewed into. This page covers the range: it comes in Large, Medium and XL, and also in a blue colourway.

Something worth flagging. We only have a confirmed packed weight for the Large size, 0.21kg — the Medium and XL are not individually weighed on the card we hold. Go by your dog's usual toy size when choosing between the three rather than assuming they scale evenly.

Who it's for: dogs that like both tugging and fetch and get bored of a toy that only does one, plus anyone whose dog has previously pulled the stuffing out of a plush toy and would do better without any.
