On the People's Terms: A Republican Theory and Model of DemocracyAccording to republican theory, we are free persons to the extent that we are protected and secured in the same fundamental choices, on the same public basis, as one another. But there is no public protection or security without a coercive state. Does this mean that any freedom we enjoy is a superficial good that presupposes a deeper, political form of subjection? Philip Pettit addresses this crucial question in On the People's Terms. He argues that

According to republican theory, we are free persons to the extent that we are protected and secured in the same fundamental choices, on the same public basis, as one another. But there is no public protection or security without a coercive state. Does this mean that any freedom we enjoy is a superficial good that presupposes a deeper, political form of subjection? Philip Pettit addresses this crucial question in On the People's Terms. He argues that state coercion will not involve individual subjection or domination insofar as we enjoy an equally shared form of control over those in power. This claim may seem utopian but it is supported by a realistic model of the institutions that might establish such democratic control. Beginning with a fresh articulation of republican ideas, Pettit develops a highly original account of the rationale of democracy, breathing new life into democratic theory.

Disappointing
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: Large
I was disappointed. In the description, it mentioned it has meat aroma. It doesn't. My dog has barely paid any attention to it at all... and he will chew on anything!

Great Dog Chew!
My American Pitbull who is 10 months old is an aggressive chewer. He loves this Tikaton bacon scented dog chew. My picture reflects the part he loves the most-the center. It’s his favorite chew & has been chewing on it nonstop & there’s little sign of true wear & tear. He licks the outer portion & really focuses on chewing the center. I like how it’s a non-toxic nylon. The box clearly gives a heads up that this could be a chocking hazard so I do watch him when he’s chewing. He’s 60lbs. & I did get him a large so it’s not too small for him. I don’t foresee him choking on it but I’m cautious. Despite his aggressive chewing there has been zero sign of any piece tearing off. I like how it’s designed so he chews from the side rather than from the top or bottom. I did take a picture, for your reference, which I hope is helpful, of what the box reads in regards to the chew in general. Possibly this will determine if you feel this is right for your dog. I feel it’s a quality chew & it’s worth what I paid. I do recommend!

Dogs would not even put in their mouth!
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Large
Toy is rock hard. Have seen toys like that before, but the smell is disgusting. I have 5 dogs, and while this was purchased for one in particular, none of the dogs would chew on it. Only one put it in his mouth, and then immediately spit it out. My dogs are not picky or finicky but none would have anything to do with it. Total waste of money.

Not the most durable, but my dog LOVES it.
Style: Plush Surprise Color, Size: 24"
My boyfriend’s dog had the small version from Petsmart and she has been very gentle with it since she likes it so much. I decided to surprise her with this 24 inch one for Christmas. She was obsessed! It’s cute, it’s very soft, and has a big squeaker in the top, which she loves! She was a little more tough on it and it did get some rips 12 hours in, but it is still in one piece at the moment and brings lots of joy. The dog is a medium/large size. Dog toys can be so expensive. I personally think the was a great price despite not being the most durable. I may purchase again next year!

Update: Excellent Customer Service Made Everything Worthwhile!
Style: Plush Surprise Color, Size: 24", Style: Plush Surprise Color, Size: 24"
07/17/2025: This doggy toy was destroyed within 2 hours of its arrival. In my opinion, it was not at all worth the cost. (1 star) Update (07/19/2025): I have contacted the manufacturer and they said they will send out a new replacement toy. As of now, I have revised the review to 2 stars for the excellent and efficient customer service pending arrival of said replacement. Will update again soon. (2 stars) Update (07/23/2025): The replacements have arrived! My dog loves the new plushie sloth and so far it is in tact. It doesn't have stuffing in the body as far as I can tell, so little to no clean up hopefully. They also sent her a spiked squeaky ball and she's getting used to it. This company has some of the best customer service and support that I've experienced. (5 stars)
