Product overview

The Rocket is a bright, durable, squeaky toy that floats! (Disclaimer: we have no affiliation with Hartz. This is an objective review of this toy.)

Our initial impressions

Love at first sniff. River first discovered this toy 2 years ago when someone at the beach was throwing it for their dog. When River promptly tried to steal it, we had to shopping for one of our own. Turns out they’re easy to find in some large supermarkets (Loblaws, Metro, Safeway) and several pet supply stores.

Since then, River is inseparable from it. It has a distinct squeak that you’ll grow to either love (because it means your dog is having fun) or to hate (because they wait for you to be on the phone to squeak it). We gifted one to Mira, and it was an instant fave too (next to her frisbee). in fact, we have yet to meet a dog that doesn’t love it. River’s had hers stolen twice by off-leash dogs at the beach.

Pros

  • Durable
  • Bright and easy to find
  • Lightweight and portable
  • Floats!
  • Inexpensive
  • Squeaks
  • Claims to smell like bacon
  • Dogs LOVE this toy!

Cons

  • May not stand up to heavy chewing
  • You’ll need to buy several – one for your dog, one as backup when it gets stolen by a jealous dog and one as a gift when your friend’s dog comes over
