'I loathe what I did, but what I loathe even more is your virtue.'Seventeen-year-old Effi Briest is steered by her parents into marriage with an ambitious bureaucrat, twenty years her senior. He takes her from her home to a remote provincial town on the Baltic coast of Prussia where she is isolated, bored, and prey to superstitious fears. She drifts into a half-hearted affair with a manipulative, womanizing officer, which ends when her husband is transferred to Berlin. Years later, events are triggered that will have profound consequences for Effi and her family.
Effi Briest (1895) is recognized as one of the masterpieces by Theodor Fontane, Germany's premier realist novelist, and one of the great novels of marital relations together with Madame Bovary and Anna Karenina. It presents life among the conservative Prussian aristocracy with irony and gentle humour, and opposes the rigid and antiquated morality of the time by treating its heroine with sympathy and keen psychological insight.

Great Toy for a Hot Dog!
One if not my dogs favorite toys! We have a long haired mini dachshund and she loves material and squeakiness of this toy. She’s a texture girl so loves the ruffles of the middle part that stretches.

Fabric lasted less than 3 minutes. Just buy cotton rope.
Style: Monkey Shape, Style: Monkey Shape
You might as well just buy cotton rope. We should have been more careful in reading the "fine print." The description does say, "For gentlemanly dogs, it is more durable and can be used with light chewing," and "it's not indestructible dog toy." Our dog can play with one of the duck/platypus plush toys ("best seller") for months until the fabric wears through. Our expectation of more than 3 minutes from package opening to the floor being covered with stuffing was too high.

Worth it for small dogs
Style: Monkey Shape, Style: Monkey Shape
Quality is good and durable. I have a dachshund and he hasn’t ripped the squeaker out yet! The squeak is a higher pitch noise. My dog loves it. It’s nice it doubles as a tug of rope toy and a stuffy. It matched description and pictures.
With all that being said if you have a bigger dog it probably won’t last long.
