Every dog plays differently and, since not all toys are created equal, it’s always best to keep a close watch on your pup in case things get ruff. Supervised play will help toys last longer and most importantly keep your pal safe. No dog toy is truly indestructible, so always remove the toy from playtime if pieces begin to break off.

Durable, interactive
This is the second time we purchased the wobble ball. Quality is great, it’s easy to fill with 2 levels the kibble goes into before coming out for the pups to eat which makes it very interactive. We first purchased it for our rescue golden retriever who has food insecurity issues and needs a lot of play time. This keeps him busy for 15-30 minutes depending on how open we leave the dispensing levers. Of course, with 2 pups we had to have 2 toys. Or other dog is a staffy mix who is a quick learner and aggressive chewer. It’s great having toys that both dogs can use for an extended time. I highly recommend this toy.

Excellent Product!
I am so happy that I bought this feeder/toy for my one-year-old Aussie!Before I purchased it, my girl would eat well one day, then ignore her food the next day or two, and so on. However, because she is an Aussie, or a working dog by both nature and genetics, she loves having a job to do.So, now, she happily “works” for her food twice a day–every day–and loves it! And I love it, too. Not only is the item easy to fill, but I enjoy watching her bopping it with her nose or foot, and figuring out creative solutions to getting it out from under furniture or tight corners, etc. And, regardless of how often it gets bopped into furniture, it has done no damage whatsoever to anything. And, given that we have a few pieces of gorgeous Victorian furniture in our living room, this matters to us a great deal!Best of all, our dog is eating every day, twice a day, at a relaxed pace, and enjoying it thoroughly. In fact, although I still put a little dry food in her bowl, in case she gets hungry before I have the chance to fill her toy, she rarely, if ever, touches the food in her bowl. In fact, even though she sits beside me on the couch while I fill it, she doesn’t even touch the wide-open container in which I have the food, despite having it right beside her. Instead, she waits patiently for me to put the toy down on the floor for her. After all, the toy is like a giant weeble (remember those?) that dispenses food, and how much would our kids have loved that, back in the day?So, I can, quite sincerely, highly recommend this toy! It is well designed, extremely sturdy, and easy to fill. Best of all, my dog loves it! She has several puzzle toys/feeders, but this is the one that she wants to use–exclusively now–because she has not grown tired of it or bored with it. Excellent design, excellent product, happy dog, and delighted doggy mom! Thank you!(Note: I was NOT given a free toy or asked to write a review.

Loved by both my pup and I! I can’t say enough good things!!
My lab puppy absolutely loves this! And so do I. My 5 month old lab puppy loves to play with us and is not so good at playing by himself. Though he is getting a little better. I use this when we need to keep him occupied or when we need a little break. I bought this for him when we first got him at about 2 months old; even then he had no problems figuring it out. Depending on how much food I put in it, this will keep him busy for quite awhile. My puppy does not usually have much of an attention span, he is always jumping from one toy, bone, or chew to another. But with this I know I can consistently depend on him being entertained for at least 15 to 30 minutes, again, depending on how much food I put in there.”Bob” as we call him, is very well made. I purchased the large one and it holds about 2 cups of food. The yellow top screws off so that you can pour the food in, there is an adjustable opening so if you want to make it harder for your dog you can adjust it and he will have to work harder to get the food out. It screws on quite tight and has never come off while my dog is playing with it even when he carries it around by the top. There is another opening towards the bottom where the food comes out that is also adjustable depending on how easy you want it to be or how big the food is that you are using. Both openings are pretty large and I have never had an issue with putting things in there. I know some people use it to put their dog’s food in, as my dog is self fed I have never done that. But I do use Cheerios and all kinds of other cereals and treats but mainly I use other “special” dog foods. I buy moist and dry dog foods that look like they may taste good and use them as treats. My dog thinks he is getting treats and never knows the difference, he loves them. It’s healthier than feeding him lots of treats and also a lot cheaper. Using the “Bob” not only keeps him independently entertained but also helps to tire him out. It can be a bit loud as I have tile floors but it is not that bad.It is constructed extremely well. My pup plays very rough with it, he bats it around into walls, furniture etc., drops it down steps, it has taken a beating but it has stood up to my dog’s abuse, where many of his other toys have not made it. It is very easy to clean.I plan on purchasing another one for my sister-in-law’s pig. She is 70 pounds over weight and hates to move around but obviously loves food. I think that putting her food inside will be just the motivation she needs. And it is so well made that I don’t have to worry about giving it to her!

My sister-in-law lent us hers for a couple months, it was great so we had to buy our own. Kong has one a little smaller, but it’s single port and it’s not adjustable. This one has two fully adjustable ports. It’s a lot heavier and larger than the Kong, it actually bangs around enough to turn on the “knock” oven light in our LG stove – but I don’t really see this as a problem. You can put any size kibble in there and adjust the ports to whatever difficulty level you choose which is awesome. If the dog is being particularly annoying, we close the port to absolute minimum size so it takes him a while to get it all out as a sort of gentle punishment. If we want to reward, we open the port wider so food comes out easier. It’s made up of a very soft plastic, so it gouges really easily when the dog bites it or carries it around in his mouth unfortunately. Ours has become a bit raggedy looking already a few days later. Does not affect performance or pet satisfaction at all so we can live with it. Structurally it’s very strong and solid, it may get marred up but I cannot see it ever breaking. One of our best dog toy investments.

El juguete es bueno, bastsante resistente y seguramente será bastante duradero. Pinta bastante bien.

I was looking for a food dispenser toy as a boredom breaker for my working cocker spaniel and as a method of making him âworkâ for his food to help manage his waistline! Iâve had various types before but they usually donât get used, either because they dispense food too easily and only last a few minutes each time, are flimsy and break, or are too difficult and he gets bored trying with no reward. This one is great; a good size and really robust, and the weighting combined with the ability to vary the size of the dispensing hole means itâs just difficult enough without being too difficult. I put his kibble in it each evening, along with a few pieces of treats to make it even more interesting, and he spends a good half hour pushing it around till itâs empty. It really keeps his attention and he looks forward to it each day; he knows when itâs time and gets very excited waiting while I fill it! By the time itâs empty heâs ready for a sleep, so it definitely tires him out mentally and physically. As some other reviews say, it takes a few minutes to get the kibble and treats fed into the hole to fill it, but itâs a very minor niggle and certainly wouldnât put me off buying it. Definitely well worth the money- if youâre looking for a food dispenser toy for any reason, Iâd highly recommend trying this one.

Permet a mon grand chien surexcité de s’occuper pendant 20 bonnes minutes aux repas, et de se fatiguer au passage. Fait un boucan infernal (serait parfait si couvert d’une matière type silicone) mais vaut largement la peine.

Ein perfektes Hunde Spielzeug. Extrem Robust also auch was für kräftige Hunde wie meinem. Die Lautstärke ist zu bedenken. In einem mehr Familienhaus eher nicht zu empfehlen und auch nicht auf empfindlichen Böden. Jedoch kann das Spielzeug auch im Garten auf Terrassen und überall perfekt verwendet werden. Meiner bekommt es wenn er mal alleine ist zur Ablenkung und Beschäftigung.
