squeaky toy

Pet's sonic plaything

A squeaky toy is a pet toy, usually rubber or plastic, that makes a high-pitched squeak when compressed.

Dogs are especially drawn to them—the sound mimics prey in distress.

The squeaker inside is a small air-powered noisemaker.

The dog won't stop with that squeaky toy.

By extension, anything that makes a similar irritating noise.
