Hyper Pet Real Skinz Opossum Plush Dog Toy – Stuffing-Free with Two Squeakers
The Hyper Pet Real Skinz Opossum Plush Dog Toy is a stuffing-free toy made from 100% natural latex and soft plush fabric, designed for dogs who enjoy squeaky toys with realistic textures. It measures 15 x 2.5 x 8.5 inches and weighs just 2.88 ounces, with two squeakers located in the head and tail to maintain interest. The hand-painted face adds to its lifelike appearance.
What makes the Hyper Pet Real Skinz Opossum different from other plush dog toys?
Most plush dog toys contain a stuffing that can be pulled out and create a mess around the house. The Real Skinz Opossum is intentionally stuffing-free, so there is no filler to scatter if your dog tears through the outer layer. Instead, the toy combines a textured latex "skin" with a plush furry coat, offering two distinctly different surfaces for your dog to bite and carry. This multi-textured approach can help maintain a dog's interest longer than a single-material toy.
Materials and design details
The toy's body is constructed with 100% natural latex for the skin and a soft plush fabric for the fur. The latex head and tail each contain a built-in squeaker that activates when compressed, giving your dog two separate squeaking zones to discover. The face is hand-painted with realistic opossum features, which can trigger natural curiosity in dogs that are attracted to lifelike prey shapes. The combination of materials creates a lightweight toy (2.88 ounces) that is easy for most dogs to carry and shake.

Common questions about this dog toy
How many squeakers does this toy have?
There are two squeakers: one inside the latex head and one inside the tail. Both produce a loud squeak when squeezed.
Is the toy safe for dogs that chew aggressively?
The manufacturer does not specify a specific chew-resistance level. As with any dog toy, supervise your pet during play and remove the toy if it becomes damaged in a way that could create choking hazards.
What does "stuffing-free" mean?
Unlike traditional plush toys that are filled with polyester fiber or similar material, the Real Skinz Opossum has no stuffing inside. The toy is constructed solely from the latex skin and plush fabric, so if your dog tears it open, there are no loose fibers to clean up.
A note on supervision
Hyper Pet recommends always supervising your dog when playing with any toy. Regularly inspect the Opossum for signs of wear, especially around the seams and squeaker pockets. If the squeaker is exposed, discontinue use to prevent accidental ingestion.
