Has Anyone Seen This Squirrel?

It is a dog's toy, not a kid's toy and did have a squeaker inside it originally. The tail is loose and goes behind it, rather than sewn up behind the back.
I want to get The Lurcher a new squirrel for Xmas, and I can't find one anywhere!

Grin Aah, a pointy with a squirrel. Lovely.

Ours would be wishing it was the real thing. Blush

Oh, she would love the real thing but I've told her she has to catch her own!

Haven't seen squirrels, but Pets at Home do very similar furry, squeaky pheasants and ducks. I know lurchers don't traditionally go for birds, but if it's a fake one she might not be able to tell the difference...

Ooh - just found this one on ebay - I think I know what my border terrier is getting for Christmas. He dreams of catching a squirrel one day...

... and another Ebay one here.

I am liking the idea of a stuffing-free one - my dog seems to particularly enjoy disembowelling toys and scattering the fluff everywhere.

None of them are exactly the same. The first one looks quite similar but the tail is sewn up along the back. I wonder if it's unpickable?
Exexpat, she has one of those ducks too but prefers the squirrel. She doesn't destuff them but does like them stuffed so she can give them a good chewing!!!
