At 20cm it's the most compact toy in the Miro \u0026amp; Makauri range and suits smaller dogs, puppies, or dogs that prefer to carry, shake, and toss a toy rather than engage in extended tug play. The same natural materials and no-squeaker approach as Scottie Squid and Kelvin Koala — just in a smaller, rounder format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMade by Miro \u0026amp; Makauri.

All three use the same genuine leather, coconut-fibre filling, and vegetable dye materials with no squeaker. The size difference makes Horace better suited to smaller dogs, puppies, or indoor carry-and-toss play, while Scottie Squid's length makes it the stronger choice for tug games and larger breeds. Kelvin Koala sits between the two in both size and format.\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 small dogs or 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 — the 20cm compact size is well suited to small and medium breeds and puppies from supervised play age. The natural materials and no-squeaker design make it one of the safer toy choices for young dogs that mouth everything. Always supervise play and remove if the toy becomes significantly worn. For very small toy breeds, check the size is appropriate for your specific dog.\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 it suitable for chewers?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eFor moderate chewers, yes — leather withstands light to moderate chewing well. This is a carry-and-play toy rather than a dedicated chew, so dogs that systematically destroy toys will work through it faster than intended. For power chewers, supervised short sessions with rotation are sensible. The coconut-fibre filling is natural and non-toxic so the risk if it is breached is lower than with synthetic-filled alternatives.\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 is made entirely from natural materials with no plastic inserts. This makes it quieter and removes the risk of a squeaker being worked free and swallowed. It suits dogs and owners who prefer calmer, quieter play over high-stimulation squeaky toys.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Miro \u0026 Makauri","offers":[{"title":"Horace Hedgehog","offer_id":52650621894994,"sku":"MM114","price":10.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/7128\/4562\/files\/50dd8bbe550de13cb9b2bc3ac5c12123207dd69b52720f527832036e353a12ce.jpg?v=1778660527","url":"https:\/\/hairydogs.co.uk\/products\/miro-makauri-horace-hedgehog-eco-leather-dog-toy","provider":"Hairy Dogs (Cambs) Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
