Built for the tug that goes both ways. Sterling Fox is a medium+ plush with a long body, bushy tail, and a shape that gives dogs and owners an equally satisfying grip — made for the kind of play that actually tires a dog out.
Sterling Fox is a medium+ plush toy — approx. 15" / 38 cm — built for tug, shake, and fetch. The long body and full tail give dogs multiple grip points and create the kind of visual movement during shake sessions that keeps play going longer. Light enough to carry back from a fetch, substantial enough to feel like a proper tug toy.
All the character and build quality of Fluff & Tuff, in a shape and size that suits medium to large breeds who play with intent.
Features
Long body and full tail. Natural grip points at both ends — dogs grab the tail, the body, or the scruff depending on how they like to play. The tail creates movement during shake that sustains engagement.
Ultra-plush outer fabric. Soft on the mouth for extended tug and carry sessions — substantial enough to feel like a proper toy.
Squeaker in the body. Activates with each compression — audio feedback that keeps dogs engaged and signals they've got a good grip.
Tuffweb™ mesh liner. The internal structural layer that maintains shape and durability under tug and shake play.
Concealed and double-stitched seams. Reinforced throughout to the same standard as every Fluff & Tuff toy.
Embroidered eyes. No plastic buttons that can be chewed off.
Machine washable. The whole toy goes in the machine.
Built to a higher standard.
All Fluff & Tuff toys meet the ASTM F963 safety standard — the same benchmark applied to children's plush toys in the United States. Tested for lead and phthalates. Double-scanned for metal objects. Embroidered eyes, non-toxic fill.
Dogs can't read labels. But you can. Choose toys that are made to a standard, not just made to a price.
How to Play
Tug. The primary play mode — Sterling's long body gives both dog and owner a natural grip for a back-and-forth game that's satisfying for medium and large breeds.
Shake. Dogs grab the body or tail and shake — the length creates visual movement that makes the session more rewarding and harder to put down.
Fetch. Easy to throw and substantial enough for larger breeds to carry back comfortably. A good way to wind down a tug session.
A note on supervision.
No plush toy is indestructible — not even the well-made ones. Always supervise play and remove the toy if sustained chewing begins. You know your dog better than anyone.
Best For
Recommended for medium and large breeds who enjoy interactive tug and shake play — including Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Border Collies, Australian Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, and Miniature Schnauzers. At 15", it's the right size for dogs that need a toy they can really work with. Not a dedicated chew toy — best used for interactive play with supervision.
Care Instructions
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild, pet-safe detergent. Air dry fully before returning to your dog — do not tumble dry. A wash bag is recommended to protect the seams during the cycle.
