 Hardly indestructible... September 23, 2008
I bought this for my 8-mo-old blue heeler/husky puppy, and she managed to pull the rope enough to break it within 2 days. She's a rough-and-tumbler to be sure, but they claimed it was indestructible. Hardly.
Pity too, she'd almost learned how to use it.

I have greyhounds and when they grabbed the rope and the bottle "chased" them rattling (kibble inside) they decided they would never touch it again. I try it again with each new foster, and they all do the same thing...
 I love this toy... September 18, 2008

I bought this toy for my dog to keep him busy while I run out the door to work. He used to get upset when I left, but now he knows he will get this to play with. He figured out really quickly how to use it and it keeps him entertained for at least 10-15 minutes while I escape. It is very easy to clean. One thing I wanted to point out is that the small is rather large. My collie is huge and he uses the small. I think the large would be too big for him. I just put about a quarter of a cup in it although the small holds about 2 cups. I guess if you wanted to feed a very large dog an huge meal you might need a large, but then it might be too heavey for the dog to play with.
 Not exactly self serve August 19, 2008
There are 2 design issues with this toy: 1. in order for the rope to go back in, it needs to be PUSHED back in - this is difficult for a dog to accomplish without human help as it is not a stiff rope, but a flexible one. 2. When the dog pulls on the rope, it lifts the bottle up into an upright position, and when it's vertical the treats don't come out.
My dog quickly figured out that the best way for the toy to "work" was if I set it up and let him pull the rope out while I held the bottle horizontal. So my dreams of independent play have not yet been realized.
My Pugs love this! August 18, 2008

I bought two of these for my Pug puppies. Wasn't sure if first if they would get the hang of it but it took no time at all. Instead of the treats they suggest (which could be made of anything and could have too many calories), I fill these with Cheerio's (or some frozen sliced carrrots or peas) and a few larger milkbones and they go nuts. The larger milkbones are added just to make it a little tougher. It's a great learning toy or busy toy - hence the name. All I have to ask my little Puggies is, "do you want your bottle" and that's all they need. We couldn't live without it. Oh and I've had ours for probably a year and a half and we're not even close to needing to replace them.
