Paging Jeff Yarchin or other pet toy experts
O.K., let's see what the knowledgeable membership here can do. My 7 y.o. yellow Lab, Remy, may look like a sweet and gentle soul:


However, she is an absolute terror on chew toys. One of her favorites has lasted for years but is starting to wear out. We call it the "Green Taco" because of its shape and the slit in top that allows it to hold treats (Blue Buffalo biscuits are a perfect fit). If we tell her to "Get the green taco", she'll retrieve it and take it to the treat cupboard and wait to get her nightly treat.

We would like to get a new one but have no idea where we got it or who made it. There are no markings on it anywhere. It is green rubber and is approximately 4" X 3". We've looked at every local pet store and have exhausted our Googlefu looking online. Now it's time to get some straight answers from the hive mind. Here are a couple of pics:

My first guess was a Kong product as they were the only things that stood up to my Rotties.

You, sir, are correct! You were able to find it within 34 minutes of my post, and my wife and I have been stymied by this for months!

I have a Dachshund that makes Kong's and any "indestructible" toy seem like a piece of paper. My wife even found a "guaranteed wont break" etc toy and it lasted all of about an hour.
Sweetest little girl in the world but an absolute beast on chew toys

Kong makes some nice dog crates too.

Sorry I'm late! Yes, that is a Kong product.

Check out West Paw. Made in the US and had a replacement guarantee.
