Busy Buddy Squirrel Dude Treat Dispenser Tough Dog Chew Toy

I have a very smart GSP that has these wild bursts of energy. Because of my job I can't always take him on a walk or play fetch with him when he needs it - so I rely a lot on brain toys and games that keep him occupied. What I love about this Busy Buddy is that that the hole has these little stoppers in the bottom that can stop the food from coming right out. My sweet doggo loves figuring out the best way to spin and flip it get the most kibble out! The loss of one star is due to the strong rubber smell on the product when i received it. It made me a little nervous to give it to my dog right out of the Chewy Box.

I bought 3 of these after watching a video on YouTube. My 4 Pekingese gave up quickly, couldn't get treats OUT. I tried many snacks that they usually love, but they still gave up. They try, but the treats end up being wasted. The smoking gun was when I stuffed a Vienna sausage in one, and they love Viennas, but could not get it all out, even with part of it already out. Maybe someone can advise if I am doing something wrong or to try something that has worked for them? Thanks, Donna in Monroe, North Carolina

By far the best fill-up and treat dispensing toy I've tried. The design is adorable, but it's also very practical. It takes a good while to get the food out and the rubber is strong, but flexible. Has a slight scent and it's quite interesting how it repels water. My old Kong got moldy quite quickly, despite thorough cleaning, this feature of being water resistant seems like it could help.

The hole is smaller compared to the red kong version so it’s harder to get the treats out and i prefer that since it keeps my dog busier longer. It also has like some sort of ribbing on the inside to increase the difficulty. Will definitely buy again once toy is destroyed. It’s still intact a year later tho! And i have a heeler lol

We bought this a couple of years ago (at least) and our Dutch Shepherd/Heeler mix LOVES her purple squirrel. She is active and methodical with her play and means to get treats out of this. She will repeatedly pick up and drop/throw this thing to the ground hoping that as it bounces the pieces of treats will fall out. Our bigger dog (about 55lbs) has occasionally stolen it from her and it has serviced him chewing on it for a decent amount of time as well. Would recommend to anyone with a strong chewer or an active dog who needs a toy to keep them busy for a bit.

The large size was much bigger than I expected. I thought it would be about the size of a large Kong. A better size description would be very large and providing dementions would have been very helpful. IMO, only very large dogs could get this even partially in their mouth and could get really frustrated working to get the treats inside out

My toy Australian Shepherd really enjoys playing with this and it keeps her engaged for a long time as she tries to get the treats.

When first loaded it drops kibble just by rolling, but play gets more interactive and dynamic as the kibble starts to run low and Buddy needs a bit rougher treatment to give up the goods. We removed one tab so kibble falls out but not all at once.

My two super chewer lab mixes love this toy! We put treats inside to make them work for them and it keeps them busy!! We have had many toys destroyed, but this one really holds up. We have 3 of them in two different sizes and they have held up under daily rounds of intense playtime! Strongly recommend this one!

Very cute treat holder ,but my puppy found it hard to get treats out. Couldn’t use small treats they just fell out, and large ones pup can’t get out . ?
