I bought an XTreme Kong long ago & it is the only dog toy that has withstood the powerful jaws of my dog an XTreme chewer! I decided to purchase a few of the other XTreme products manufactured by Kong, hoping they would be as long-lasting. This product, the "XTreme Goodie Bone" was a big disappointment as it was chewed up in a matter of minutes by my dog. I would definitely NOT recommend this "Goodie Bone" to any pet owner that has an aggressive chewer.

With a German Shepherd/Lab mix, toys usually don't make it more than 10 minutes before they are destroyed. The only toys that have consistently lasted (some for almost 6 months now) are Kong toys. This is the newest to his collection of Kong toys, and he treasures it like a real bone, and he can naw on it all he wants, and little to no damage happens.

This, along with all other Kong products (besides the frizbee) have been wonderful. They even let you put treats in them, but my dog likes them either way. They aren't quiet indestructible, but pretty darn close. Buying one every few months is a lot better than buying one every few minutes.

My dog is not big on toys. She's extremely food-motivated, so Kong and Squirrel Dude have been her favorites--up to now. The bone shape is perfect for her to carry around and hold on with her paws while she's chewing. The goodie openings are smaller than I expected. I've found the Eukanuba Healthy Extra treats for puppies are a perfect fit. You can fit one in each opening for a challenge, or fit two in each opening so a little sticks out on each end. She will actually hold the bone in her mouth and toss it up in the air, in the hopes that a biscuit will break and fall out. The Goodie Bone keeps her occupied for a long time--hooray!

This bone supplies my dog with lots of enjoyment and work. I have a very smart working breed dog that needs lots of challenges in his daily routine. This Kong bone does just that. I add peanut butter and a bone treat into each end of the Kong bone and place it in the freezer overnight. The next morning right before I leave for work Mr. Dog gets his bone and is so busy he barely realizes I am walking out the door.

I plan to buy another one for my second dog. They both want the bone and fight over it. They prefer it to the regular Kong.

A little background is in order: Our two dogs are 18lbs and 50lbs. Both of them are absolute power chewers. They inhale bite size treats without even chewing. Nylabones don't stand a chance. Rawhides are practically swallowed whole. Plush toys are ripped apart before your eyes. One of them actually ate an entire pair of gym shorts. These dogs are chewing machines, what can I say. They do their work so fast that nothing keeps them occupied for more than 3-5 minutes!

However, as much as they have decimated any toy we have thrown at them, their Kongs have survived for months without showing a single sign of the abuse they've endured. What's more, not only are these toys super-durable, they are the dogs' favourite toyshands down!

For these bone-shaped Kongs, there is a hole all the way through each end -denoted by the little jagged edges you see in the picture. The hole itself is sort of star-shaped, which is why the side view looks like a serrated, "jagged" edge. The edges are designed to hold a treat inside. Have no fear, though, the edges are toughthe dogs haven't been able to chew them up.

We've had the best luck using flat, stick-like rawhides with the Kong. We break them into a bundle of pieces slightly longer than the hole, then stuff them in tightly. Inside the Kong bone, the treats last about 20-30 minutes while by themselves they lasted only seconds. Best of all, after the treats have finally been exhausted, the dogs continue to gnaw on them, as though searching for one more tasty morsel. This keeps them happy for another 10 or 15 minutes.

I cannot stress enough how tough these Kongs are. If you don't like the bone shape, try the Kong Extreme Large Dog Toy, Black with a little peanut butter inside. (For even longer lasting fun, throw the Kongs in the freezer after you've stuffed in the peanut butter. It's like a Puppy Popsicle!)

At around $10 these toys are a steal. I would have gladly paid $20 or $30 on account of the fact that they are so durable. If you own a power chewer, try a Kong!
