My 2 dachshunds loved, loved, loved Hide-A-Squirrel. They still play with the “hides” after chewing them open so the stuffing & squeaker are gone. Fortunately, they had lots of play before they chewed the squirrels open. Not so with the birds…they chewed off the beaks in a couple days with stuffing everywhere. Unfamiliar with Hide-A-Bee (it have one 5 star rating). Better to buy Hide-A-Squirrel. Note there are refill squirrels available.

This toy is pretty simple – It’s a “birdhouse” with 2 holes, and 3 little birds that you can stuff inside. But my dog LOVES it – he hasn’t gotten tired of it yet, 3 weeks later. There must be something about the shape/colors/design of the birds – they are his new favorite toys, and he carries them all around three of them stuffed into his mouth. He also enjoys pulling them out of the birdhouse, over and over again. The squeakers inside the birds break easily though, and the birdhouse has a plastic “base” inside the fleece that can be chewed up. Surprisingly, my pitbull mix, who normally chews and tears apart his squeaker toys, has been very gentle with the birds.

My shih tzu wasn’t too interested in the birds in the house. She likes the birds alone. Or if I put treats in the house, she goes for the house. But she doesn’t play with the toy as I anticipated she would. I was slightly disappointed considering all the rave reviews and the high price tag.
I like that it’s all washable. Unfortunately, one of the birds heads is already falling off – before I even needed to wash it.

My dog loves this bird house. I also stuff her other small toys in there, she loves trying to get them out!

This is an excellent toy for most dogs. I say most because it is probably not ideal for dogs who are bent on the destruction of every toy they get
My dog is a one and a half year old 45 lb border collie mix, and this is one of her favorite toys. She loved the Hide-A-Squirrel toy also until my sister’s lab destroyed that one. I hide this toy from my sister’s dog when he comes to visit, but Lacey has it out all day long and she plays with it a lot, sometimes even roughly, and both the bird house and birds are still fully intact (much to my shock–she typically tries, and succeeds, to tear out the squeaker in all squeaky toys). The nice thing is, this is a toy that she enjoys playing with by herself even after she has “solved” it by getting all the birds out, but it’s also something we can play with together. My hands are small enough that I can reach in through one hole of the bird house, grab a bird, and make it peek out the other hole, squeak it, then pull it back in before she can get it. It’s a very fun game for her, but she figured out a while back that it’s me doing it so she goes back and forth between trying to get the bird and yipping at me 
This is definitely one of the best toys I’ve ever gotten for her, and I highly recommend it to anyone whose dog does not destroy everything in sight. This is a sturdy toy, but it’s still plush, and plush is not for every dog.
