No squeaker, no synthetic stuffing, no plastic components. At 26 × 13cm it's a more compact toy than the Miro \u0026amp; Makauri Scottie Squid — better suited to smaller dogs, indoor play, or dogs who prefer a toy they can carry rather than a long tug format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMade by Miro \u0026amp; Makauri. Natural materials throughout. Interactive tug, toss, and carry toy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenuine leather outer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Durable, natural, and resistant to the pulling and twisting of tug play. Leather has a satisfying texture dogs engage with and a natural scent that holds interest over time. The leather outer also means the toy holds its shape better under play than fabric alternatives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% natural coconut-fibre filling:\u003c\/strong\u003e No synthetic wadding — when the toy eventually gets opened, what comes out is natural coconut husk fibre rather than polyester stuffing. The fibre itself is natural and non-toxic if ingested in small quantities during normal play, though this toy isn't designed to be eaten.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVegetable dyes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Colour applied using vegetable-based dyes rather than industrial chemical dyes — relevant for dogs that mouth their toys regularly and therefore ingest small amounts of whatever is on the surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo squeaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deliberately excluded. Squeakers fail and can be swallowed; they also create a level of auditory excitement that isn't always desirable. Kelvin Koala's appeal comes from its shape, texture, and the interaction with the owner — not a noise component.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact 26 × 13cm size:\u003c\/strong\u003e More practical than longer tug formats for indoor play, smaller dogs, or dogs that prefer to carry and shake a toy rather than engage in extended two-person tug. Also a practical size for a treat bag or walking pack as a portable reward toy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural material variation:\u003c\/strong\u003e As a genuine leather product coloured with vegetable dyes, colour and texture will vary slightly between batches — a characteristic of natural materials rather than a defect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenuine leather\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFilling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% natural coconut fibre\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDyes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVegetable-based\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMeasurement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApprox.\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26cm × 13cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003ePlay suggestions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTug, toss and retrieve, carry games, or as a high-value reward toy during training breaks.

Scottie Squid is a longer toy at 40cm with jute rope detailing alongside the leather — designed as a tug toy with multiple grip points. Kelvin Koala is more compact at 26 × 13cm with a koala character shape — better for dogs that prefer to carry and shake, smaller dogs, or indoor play. Both use genuine leather, coconut-fibre filling, and vegetable dyes with no squeaker. If your dog loves tug games with plenty of length to work with, Scottie Squid. If they prefer a toy they can carry and toss, Kelvin Koala.\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 vegetable dyes are a safer choice than synthetic toys for dogs that mouth everything, and the compact size suits medium and smaller breeds well from puppyhood. The absence of a squeaker means there's no noise part to work free and swallow. As with all toys, supervise and replace when significantly worn.\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 as well as play with 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 chewing is fine — leather withstands moderate mouthing well. This isn't an indestructible chew toy and isn't designed for dogs that systematically work through toys; it's built for interactive play and moderate independent mouthing.
