Angels in the Sky: How a Band of Volunteer Airmen Saved the New State of IsraelIn 1948, when the newly founded nation of Israel came under siege from a coalition of Arab states, a band of volunteer airmen from the United States, Canada, Britain, France, and South Africa arrived to help. They were a small group, fewer than 150. Many were World War II veterans; most of them knowingly violated their nations' embargoes on the shipment of arms and aircraft to Israel. The airmen risked everything their careers, citizenship, and lives

In 1948, when the newly founded nation of Israel came under siege from a coalition of Arab states, a band of volunteer airmen from the United States, Canada, Britain, France, and South Africa arrived to help. They were a small group, fewer than 150. Many were World War II veterans; most of them knowingly violated their nations' embargoes on the shipment of arms and aircraft to Israel. The airmen risked everything--their careers, citizenship, and lives--to fight for Israel. The saga of the volunteer airmen in Israel's war of independence stands as one of the most stirring--and little-known--war stories of the past century.

To say my pup loved them was an UNDERSTATEMENT. Within 12 hrs what I bought for 3 dogs has become 1 dogs . He literally has ripped the heads off. I wish a lil more durable but hey he love each one. He is special lil man who can tear anything up.

Holds Up Well So Far – Nice Multi-Texture Toy
We picked up this rope plush for our dog, and overall it’s been a solid addition to the toy bin. The combination of soft plush and rope makes it more interesting than a standard stuffed toy. Our dog likes to chew on the rope sections and carry it around by the neck, and it’s held up better than most plush toys we’ve tried. The stitching seems reinforced in key areas, and even after several play sessions (including some light tug), it hasn’t come apart. That said, the size is something to pay attention to. This seems better suited for small to medium dogs or for supervised play if your dog is rough with toys. Also, while it does have a squeaker, it’s not overly loud, which could be a plus or minus depending on your preference. Overall, it’s a fun, well-designed toy that mixes textures nicely and keeps our dog engaged. Just match it to your dog’s play style and expectations for durability.

Terrible product
These made my dog very sick. The chemical smell alone is too much. Should not be aloud for puppies to chew on .

Easy to destroy, better for dogs who are light on their toys
My dogs absolutely loved these right away, the squeaker grabbed their attention instantly, and they had a blast playing with them. That said, these are made of a pretty thin latex material, and my dogs immediately shredded them. They didn’t last long at all, so I’d definitely consider these more of a short-term or supervised toy rather than something durable. Because of that, I’d only recommend them if you have dogs that aren’t heavy chewers or that you know won’t try to swallow pieces. Otherwise, they can become a bit of a mess quickly. Overall, fun toys that dogs clearly enjoy, but not built for durability.

A Funny Lesson in Toy Durability
I actually have two very different reviews for these toys. First up was the Welsh Terrier, who weighs all of 8 pounds and absolutely destroyed the pink one. The squeaker was done in under five minutes, and the poor little toy lost its ears in less than three. So for some dogs, these may not last long at all. Now for review number two: my 45-pound Shar Pei is having an absolute blast with the blue and orange toys. He shakes them, pulls on them, squeaks them nonstop, and even tosses them around, and so far they are still in perfect shape after a few days of regular play. So in my experience, durability really seems to depend on the dog and probably which toy in the set they latch onto first. They are definitely fun, soft, and engaging squeaky toys, but if your dog is a determined little destroyer, just know they may not hold up for long. For my bigger pup, though, they have been a hit.
