Give my dog Shana a soft toy and in 30 seconds it will be shredded, unrecognisable, and spread from one end of the house to the other. Give her a tennis ball, and 2 minutes later it is gone.

I bought Shana a Kong Stuff a Ball with the hopes that it would last her more than a day. 7 months later, the ball is still intact, and is her favorite toy!

When I fill the ball with the special peanut stuff that I bought with it, it keeps her quiet for hours while she tries to lick it out. I have started filling the ball with treats, which she enjoys getting out. We also use this ball to play fetch with, and it is so durable.

I can't believe it has lasted as long as it has. It still looks new, and has only a few minor teeth mark indents which is hard to believe! Although the ball seems expensive, it is worth it because it will last 100 times longer than anything else.

If you have a pet that loves to chew, the Kong Stuff a Ball is for you!!! (how poetic)

My dog and I are generally the first to step in line with the "we heart kongs" crowdshe does just great with the red version of the original kong, but the stuff-a-ball is a little tricky. She's not a super aggressive chewer, really... but she is patientand when it came to the point where she had a clump of peanutbuttery-kibble that she couldn't get to, she started working on the tabs. I didn't realize what she was up to until she'd gnawed one off, and was almost done with a second.

So, the ball itself has held up for her, but I took a hacksaw to the remaining tabs around the opening (if you have doubts about the strength of the rubber, try sawing one!).

The shape of the stuff-a-ball is more entertaining because my dog likes to kick it when it is stuffed with kibble alonethe original kong just spins in a circle. I absolutely will not be returning it, but I will also not be stocking up on these either.

My dog is a 1 yr, 50 pound aussie-shep/lab mix. I'd highly recommend these for smaller, or maybe older dogs needing some entertainment or who like to work for their food, but if you are kong shopping because your dog tends to chew through things, I'd stick with other kong products instead. This one just has too many smaller parts. Also, write to the company and suggest they get a black stuff-a-ball out soon.

I have a 14 year-old 40 lb American Eskimo that can clean out the medium red Kong toys in no time flat--even if I freeze them and get creative with my stuffing. I switched to the medium black Kong toys for more aggressive chewers, and that slows her down a little. But this ball toy tops them all.

I use the Kong Snaps, Stuff 'n' spray and Ziggies, and she'll usually wear out and curl up, satisfied, before it's empty. She's never really been interested in fetching, but this toy never fails to excite her and ignite her hunt instinct.

Update: this has been through a second dog--a lab--and a third (puppy) is now sinking her teeth into it. The lab had it for a year and a half, beginning as a puppy. Yes, the toy is beat up, but I dare say it will make it another year and a half with my current puppy (who is also a lab).

My 35 lbs. terrier has been devoted to this toy for two years now. He is on his fourth one, having worn and weakened the others after many hours of torturing it. When you buy it, buy a package of Checkups Dental Dog Treats which Amazon also carries. Break one Checkup in half and stuff it into the medium-size Kong and my pooch will consider it a project for the whole evening. Pushing it all the way into the new Kong might take hand strength and determination on your part. Getting it out requires crushing doggie jaw pressure, a series of well thought out strategies like dropping the Kong while perched on a footstool, or carrying it up a flight of steps and bouncing it down to the lower level, then checking each step for crumbles that may have dislodged on the trip down. All the time he is working on extracting the bone, he is cleaning his teeth on the Kong I don't think the vet will ever have to have to anesthetize him and clean them again. My boy brings me the Kong right after he finishes his supper each night and cries like a girl until I stuff it with a Checkup and the fun can begin.

I adopted a small 10 pound mixed dog. He wouldn't eat for days. I looked all over the internet for ideas on how to get him to eat. Lots of suggestions but I found that when I put his food in this ball he loved it!! I put all kinds of treats in this ball and he rolls it around and gets the contents to fall out. I cut up carrots and put in the ball and he rolls it around the floor until they fall out so he can eat them. I know it is an unconventional way to use the KONG ball....but he loves it!
