67 Shots: Kent State and the End of American InnocenceAt midday on May 4, 1970, after three days of protests, several thousand students and the Ohio National Guard faced off at opposite ends of the grassy campus Commons at Kent State University. At noon, the Guard moved out. Twenty four minutes later, Guardsmen launched a 13 second, 67 shot barrage that left four students dead and nine wounded, one paralyzed for life.

At midday on May 4, 1970, after three days of protests, several thousand students and the Ohio National Guard faced off at opposite ends of the grassy campus Commons at Kent State University. At noon, the Guard moved out. Twenty-four minutes later, Guardsmen launched a 13-second, 67-shot barrage that left four students dead and nine wounded, one paralyzed for life. The story doesn't end there, though. A horror of far greater proportions was narrowly averted minutes later when the Guard and students reassembled on the Commons.

The Kent State shootings were both unavoidable and preventable: unavoidable in that all the discordant forces of a turbulent decade flowed together on May 4, 1970, on one Ohio campus; preventable in that every party to the tragedy made the wrong choices at the wrong time in the wrong place.

Using the university's recently available oral-history collection supplemented by extensive new interviewing, Means tells the story of this iconic American moment through the eyes and memories of those who were there, and skillfully situates it in the context of a tumultuous era.

Reed review don’t really recommend
Did not last very long with my larger dog. And honesty it was destroyed in about 15 minutes completely, and when my dog was tearing it apart, the chunks were large enough for my dog to choke on, so I would highly recommend watching your dog with this toy if they decide to chew it and tear it apart, so they don’t choke so this could be a possibly dangerous toy.

Best fetch toy for aggressive chewers.
Great toy to play fetch. I have aggressive chewer, and this works wonderful. Not heavy, and is soft, not like hard plastic. My dog loves them, (I bought 2). The bright color is easy to find, when you dog misplaces it. The price was very good, and well worth it. I recommend this toy, especially for retrieving dogs.

Perfect Size And Great Variety For Small Dogs and Puppies
Color: Pink
I ordered this 5-pack of puppy chew toys for my small dogs, and they have been a big hit. As soon as I gave them the toys, they immediately took interest and even started fighting over them, which tells me they really enjoy playing with them. The size of these toys is perfect for small dogs and puppies. They fit comfortably in their mouths, making it easy for them to carry, chew, and play. I also really like that each toy is different, which helps keep things interesting and gives them a variety of textures and shapes to explore. The material feels like a good quality rubber and works well for teething. It seems to provide a nice balance of being durable while still giving enough for them to chew comfortably. So far, the toys have been holding up well with regular use. As with any dog toy, I do supervise playtime and make sure to throw them away if I notice any signs of wear or damage. At this point, though, they’ve been surprisingly durable for how much my dogs use them. Overall, this is a great set for small dogs, especially if you have puppies that need safe and engaging chew options. Pros: Perfect size for small dogs and puppies Comes with 5 different toys for variety Dogs find them very engaging and fun Good for teething and chewing Durable so far with regular use Cons: Not suitable for larger dogs or aggressive chewers Will still need monitoring for wear over time

Adorable Toy Set for Small Dogs, But Supervision Is Important
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
The first thing that caught my attention was the beautiful pink color. For a small female dog like mine, this set looks absolutely adorable. The toys are cute, colorful, and perfect for small breeds. When I opened the package, I honestly thought they looked even prettier in person than in the photos. My little dog was immediately interested in them and couldn’t wait to start playing. The variety of shapes keeps things fun, and the rubber pieces seem great for chewing and keeping small dogs entertained. My only concern is with the fabric ribbons attached to some of the toys. My dog loves to chew on everything and has a talent for pulling things apart, so I personally plan to remove the ribbons before giving the toys to her. I worry that an aggressive chewer could tear off a piece and accidentally swallow it. For supervised play they’re fine, but it’s something I would keep an eye on. Pros: * Beautiful pink color * Adorable design for small dogs * Variety of toys included * Great for chewing and playtime * Looks exactly like the photos Cons: * Fabric ribbons may not be ideal for dogs that aggressively chew or destroy toys * Requires supervision for heavy chewers Overall, this is a very cute toy set that my dog immediately loved. The colors and designs are adorable, and the toys are perfect for keeping small dogs busy. Just be mindful of the fabric ribbons if your pup is the type who likes to tear everything apart. Other than that, it’s a lovely set and a great gift for a small dog.

All Five Toys Are Mine Now — A Review by Patches the Pomeranian
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
⭐ “Hi, I’m Patches, and These Toys Are All Mine Now” — A Review by a Very Busy Pomeranian ⭐ Hello, my name is Patches, and I am what the humans call a “toy enthusiast.” What that really means is: if a toy enters this house, it belongs to me immediately, no questions asked. The Pack Leader brought home this 5‑Pack Puppy Chew Toy Set — a pea pod, a wing‑shaped chew, and three cute fabric‑tied toys. Five toys. Five opportunities for greatness. Five items for my personal collection. He tried to hand one toy to each of us like we’re participating in some kind of polite sharing ceremony. Very sweet. Very unrealistic. The moment my sisters glanced away for a single second, I activated my elite move: The Pomeranian Slide‑In‑and‑Snatch. I took my toy. I took their toys. I took the toys on the floor. I would’ve taken the mail if it looked interesting. Now I have all five toys, and my sisters have… well… the joy of watching me parade around with them like a tiny fluffy champion. 🦴 My Professional Toy Review Pea pod: Chews beautifully and looks adorable when I carry it around like a prize. Wing bone: Excellent for dramatic chewing sessions. Fabric toys: Perfect for shaking, tossing, and showing off. They don’t squeak, they don’t bounce — and honestly, that’s perfect. I enjoy a quiet chew while plotting my next toy acquisition. 😬 Teething & Dental Stuff The humans say these toys help clean teeth and massage gums. I don’t know about all that. I just know they feel good to chew and keep me busy while my sisters stare at me in disbelief. 🎁 Final Thoughts If your puppy enjoys chewing, collecting, or claiming ownership of everything within paw‑reach, this set is a fantastic choice. 5/5 stars. Would absolutely claim again.
