Lettering: IOVI PROPVGNAT XI

In Roman mythology, Jupiter or Jove was the
king of the gods, and the god of sky and thunder. He is the equivalent of Zeus
in the Greek pantheon. He was called Iuppiter (or Diespiter) Optimus Maximus
("Father God the Best and Greatest"). As the patron deity of ancient Rome, he
ruled over laws and social order. He was the chief god of the Capitoline Triad,
with sister/wife Juno. Jupiter is also the father of the god Mars with Juno.
Therefore, Jupiter is the grandfather of Romulus and Remus, the legendary
founders of Rome. Jupiter was venerated in ancient Roman religion, and is still
venerated in Roman Neopaganism. He is a son of Saturn, along with brothers
Neptune and Pluto. He is also the brother/husband of Ceres (daughter of Saturn
and mother of Proserpina), brother of Veritas (daughter of Saturn), and father
of Mercury.




Gallienus was Emperor of the Roman Empire
from AD 253-268, sharing the throne with his father Valerian until AD 260, then
as sole ruler until his death in AD 268. Based upon the inscriptions, this
Billon Double-Denarius of Gallienus was struck during his solitary reign, AD
260-268. The Romans typically used doubled letters to indicate plurality.
Coinage of Gallienus minted during his joint reign are inscribed "AVGG" (two
emperors), while later coins bear the inscription "AVG."





Publius Licinius Egnatius Gallienus ( c. 218
– September 268) was Roman emperor with his father Valerian from 253 to 260 and
alone from 260 to 268. He ruled during the Crisis of the Third Century that
nearly caused the collapse of the empire. He won a number of military victories
against usurpers and Germanic tribes, but was unable to prevent the secession of
important provinces. His 15-year reign was the longest in half a century.



Born into a wealthy and traditional senatorial family, Gallienus was the son of
Valerian and Mariniana. Valerian became Emperor in September 253 and had the
Roman senate elevate Gallienus to the ranks of Caesar and Augustus. Valerian
divided the empire between him and his son, with Valerian ruling the east and
his son the west. Gallienus defeated the usurper Ingenuus in 258 and destroyed
an Alemanni army at Mediolanum in 259.



The defeat and capture of Valerian at Edessa in 260 by the Sasanian Empire threw
the Roman Empire into the chaos of civil war. Control of the whole empire passed
to Gallienus. He defeated the eastern usurpers Macrianus Major and Lucius
Mussius Aemilianus in 261–262 but failed to stop the formation of the breakaway
Gallic Empire under general Postumus. Aureolus, another usurper, proclaimed
himself emperor in Mediolanum in 268 but was defeated outside the city by
Gallienus and besieged inside. While the siege was ongoing, Gallienus was
assassinated, stabbed to death by the officer Cecropius, as part of a
conspiracy.

My dog loves this toy but…
Color: Grey Bear - Large
This toy has many pros and cons, but it’s my dogs all time favorite toy so I have to give it 4 stars. Pro:My German Shepard loves this toy, it has no squeaker and she hates squeakers, so she hasn’t tried to destroy it. It’s the perfect size for a large ball. She likes to throw her toys and this one has a pretty decent bounce to it so she can entertain herself. Cons: the inside is hard rubber, she likes to throw her toys and it hurts when she hits you with it or drops it on your feet. Also a huge hazard to windows and anything breakable.

Pretty awesome chew toy
Color: Grey Bear - Large
This toy is great!! I have a doodle that shreds everything in sight, including durable toys, but this one stood up to the Teddy test! He easily ripped off the ear/feet bits, but the fabric casing hasn’t come off after a week of play, and I expect the rubber toy inside will be even harder to break. This is a fairly heavy toy, so it makes a thunk when it drops and is probably not suitable for small dogs. It has a light squeak that is quiet and infrequent enough to not annoy me, and it’s pretty cute too!! it does get soaked in drool pretty fast (and takes forever to dry), but at this point i’m grateful it lasts long enough to get drooled on at all.

less than 24 hours :/
Color: Grey Bear - Large, Color: Grey Bear - Large
smaller than i expected but had a strong interior that i was pleasantly surprised with. my lil lady very much enjoyed it, however it lasted less than 24 hours before the poor toy was skinned alive :( she loves plushies and she’s obsessed w his skin after tearing him apart. it does have a solid rubber interior that is still good as a toy, however i was hoping its skin would stay on longer than a day :( overall decent toy, 3 stars for being destroyed so quickly. wouldn’t recommend for strong chewers

Dachshund said “did I hear indestructible‽ Hold my ball”
Color: Grey Bear - Large
My 15lb Dachshund took this toy as a personal challenge. He heard me tell his human brother that it’s indestructible on the inside and said “hold my ball” promptly proceeding to schmurder the textile aspect of this adorable toy. I’d say it took him a total of 23 1/2 minutes to get to the center of this tootsie pop. I’m not even mad tho bc he had no interest in actually ingesting the outer part, and is totally into the inner toy, which is, for him, literally indestructible. It’s solid rubber, has a wild and fun bounce to it on multiple surfaces. Zodiac rates the squeak 10/10. It’s great especially for when I’m on a call or talking to someone in real life and can’t immediately throw said toy or pay complete attention to him. In conclusion: Your dog will probably love it, ((suggest to just keep an eye on them during the schmurder process and make sure you grab all the pieces that come off so none are swallowed)) Depending on your tolerance for squeaker pitch and frequency of squeak, it's a 4/10 in annoyance mostly bc it’s not a long drawn out squeak ((I can not tolerate those toys, they get “lost on top on my fridge” until I get up the courage to throw them out without him seeing)), it’s quick and requires a bit of effort to produce the sound however it’s a very high pitch squeak so it’s all up to your preference. I personally try to buy toys I can tolerate my dog loving on bc when he gets a new toy, it’s his favorite thing for a long time, like, it sleeps on the bed with us for the first month. Hope your fur child loves this as much as mine did. Not sure I’ll do the whole two in one toy thing again only he got through it so fast.
