I’m no legal experts, but does JD have a leg to stand on here? It looks as if the dog toy bottle, font and design is different than that of JD.

As with all legal questions, the answer is it depends.

The ultimate issue is whether consumers will be confused or deceived by buying the allegedly infringing trademark brand because they think it's the trademark holder's brand.
In my useless opinion, it's a hard sell to convince a court that customers buying a dog toy that looks like a Jack Daniel's bottle are doing so because they thought it was a dog toy branded by the actual Jack Daniels company. To me this is a classic case of trademark parody which is allowable.
