PeakThe only thing you'll find on the summit of Mount Everest is a divine view. The things that really matter lie far below. Peak Marcello After fourteen year old Peak Marcello is arrested for scaling a New York City skyscraper, he's left with two choices: wither away in Juvenile Detention or go live with his long lost father, who runs a climbing company in Thailand. But Peak quickly learns that his father's renewed interest in him has strings attached.

The only thing you'll find on the summit of Mount Everest is a divine view. The things that really matter lie far below. - Peak Marcello

After fourteen-year-old Peak Marcello is arrested for scaling a New York City skyscraper, he's left with two choices: wither away in Juvenile Detention or go live with his long-lost father, who runs a climbing company in Thailand. But Peak quickly learns that his father's renewed interest in him has strings attached. Big strings. As owner of Peak Expeditions, he wants his son to be the youngest person to reach the Everest summit--and his motives are selfish at best. Even so, for a climbing addict like Peak, tackling Everest is the challenge of a lifetime. But it's also one that could cost him his life.

Roland Smith has created an action-packed adventure about friendship, sacrifice, family, and the drive to take on Everest, despite the incredible risk. The story of Peak's dangerous ascent--told in his own words--is suspenseful, immediate, and impossible to put down.

Ok
Style: Modern
Works ok. You have to turn the dial to get the treats to come out. Too big and too much comes out quickly so not very challenging to my pup. Too small and the treats won’t come out at all.

Finally slowed my dog down
Style: Modern
This toy is 100% worth the price. My dog is a mini Aussie and this had him engaged for 20 minutes trying to get his food. It looks adorable with the added detail of the dogs. The size is a bit smaller since it is not able to fit his full cup of food in it. The quality is amazing and he didn't immediately break it. It's very easy to use and adjust the size of the holes to make it harder. Love the engagement it provided to my pup.

Kept dog entertained! 🐾
Style: Modern
Love this toy! Glad it kept my dog busy and he really has to work for the treats inside. It rolls well and is fairly light weight. My only complaints is that if you have a strong/heavy chewer be mindful that it will rip through the plastic eventually so your dog could ingest it. For reference I have a maltipoo. 😂

My Puppy Loves this Indestructible Dragon
Size: Large, Color: Pink, Size: Large, Color: Pink
My puppy (8 month old black lab mix) loves, loves, loves her dragon. She has had it for 2 months now. It is one of her favorites and gets daily rough play time. It's her go-to toy for fetch and tug games, as well as just general mouthy play. The squeaker gave out after about 4 weeks, but she would binge squeak for prolonged periods (kind of like chomping on gum) so it was almost a blessing when it went silent. She still chomps on it, but at least now I don't have to hear it. Other than the fact that it's a little grungy and bedraggled from so much loving, it is still in amazing shape. The seams and fur are all still intact. There are no visible holes, rips, or weak spots. I love Chew Guard Technology. This dragon replaced her goDog Iguana (from PetSmart) that developed a tear in the fur after about 4 months of heavy use. (It was superficial, just the outer fur layer and not the innards, but we disposed of it before she could eat more fur.) She can be pretty rough on her toys and I can never predict if any given toy will last minutes or months. The goDog stuffies definitely fall into the "months" category, even with rough daily use. Edit: The dragon lasted about 6 months of intensive, hard play before it developed a small tear in the fur. I patched it a couple times, but once my pup discovers a weak spot, it's the kiss of death for any stuffed item. We had to dispose of the dragon (so sad) to keep her from eating any more of the fur. We replaced the dragon with the goDog Chameleon, which is still going strong. I think we will go back to the dragon for our next toy because it's just so darned cute. We gave the dragon to my niece for her golden retriever puppy who is very chew-happy. That dragon is also doing well. You've just gotta love that chew-guard technology. This is one tough toy.
