To start with, it's not really a scientific question. It also presumes facts not necessarily in evidence, specifically that dogs "like" squeaky toys.

A more "sciencey" phrasing would be "Do dogs prefer to play with toys that squeak over toys that do not?" This is something you could actually measure, by giving dogs a choice between the two toys and seeing which they play with more (ideally, they'd be the same toy with the squeaker removed in one case, to minimize other factors like shape, smell, texture or color). You could even make guesses as to why (e.g. "the squeaking attracts their attention" or "it simulates the noises made by small prey animals"), but as you can see from the examples, they're pretty much just that: guesses.
