No squeaker, no synthetic stuffing, no plastic components. At 26 × 13cm it sits in the middle of the Miro \u0026amp; Makauri eco toy range — larger than Horace Hedgehog (20cm) and more compact than Scottie Squid (40cm), making it a practical size for most breeds and play styles. The capybara shape gives it a distinctive character that's become something of a cultural favourite, which also makes it a strong gifting toy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMade by Miro \u0026amp; Makauri.

The texture and scent of leather provides ongoing sensory interest that holds a dog's attention over repeated play sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% natural coconut-fibre filling:\u003c\/strong\u003e No polyester wadding. Coconut husk fibre is natural, non-toxic, and biodegradable — when this toy eventually gets breached, what comes out is plant-based material rather than synthetic stuffing. Relevant for dogs that mouth and work at their toys persistently.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVegetable dyes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Colour applied using vegetable-based dyes rather than industrial chemical dyes.

The differences are size and character. Horace Hedgehog is the most compact at 20cm — best for smaller dogs and carry play. Carlos Capybara and Kelvin Koala are both 26 × 13cm — the same dimensions, different character shapes, suited to most breeds and play styles. Scottie Squid is the longest at 40cm with jute rope detailing, designed specifically for tug play with more length for both dog and owner to grip. If your dog is between sizes or you're not sure, Carlos Capybara and Kelvin Koala at 26 × 13cm are the most universally practical option in the range.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eIs this suitable for puppies?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eYes for supervised play. The natural materials and absence of a squeaker make it a safer option than many synthetic toys for young dogs. The 26 × 13cm size suits medium-to-large puppies particularly well — for smaller breeds and young puppies it's worth checking the size is appropriate. Always supervise play and replace when the toy shows significant wear.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eCan my dog chew it?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eLight to moderate chewing is fine — leather is a natural material that handles mouthing and moderate chewing well. Carlos Capybara is designed for interactive play (tug, carry, toss) rather than dedicated chewing, so dogs that systematically work through toys will wear it down faster than intended. For power chewers, short supervised sessions and rotation with more robust chew toys is sensible. If the toy is breached, the coconut-fibre filling is natural and non-toxic.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eDoes it squeak?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eNo — no squeaker by design. The toy contains no plastic inserts of any kind. This removes both the swallowing risk of a worked-free squeaker and the high-arousal auditory stimulus that squeaky toys create, making Carlos Capybara a calmer and safer option for households and dogs sensitive to noise.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Miro \u0026 Makauri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52650621763922,"sku":"MM118","price":10.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/7128\/4562\/files\/8136da644257379b43f81741089e6b2ea1002c2ef3cb9aca542aabc2d265aee0.jpg?v=1778660527","url":"https:\/\/hairydogs.co.uk\/products\/miro-makauri-carlos-capybara-eco-leather-dog-toy","provider":"Hairy Dogs (Cambs) Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
