KONG Cozie Ali the Alligator Dog Toy

This toy is named Albert in our house. From day one of bringing our golden retriever puppy home, Albert was a favorite (see picture). Albert has gotten a lot of love in his 4 months living with us. Puppy ripped open his belly after about a week (hence only 3 stars and not 5). BUT she loves this guy so much that I sewed up his stomach and now he’s going strong! She’s not a big chewer, so I think this toy must be pretty flimsy for her to have ripped it open. However, she loves it so much that I had to give it three stars.

My big boy puppies, (85lbs & 101lbs) loved this toy for the three days it took them to totally destroy it. I removed the squeaker and they used the outer covering for tug of war for a few more days. This would probably be great for either a smaller dog or a single puppy that doesn't have a sibling that plays take away with it.

We bought this toy as our puppies very first toy, she loved it and she would tote it around all the time. Her gator started to get a little worn with a small tear starting at the leg we knew it was time to order a replacement. The tear got to be the entire leg, but the new toy arrived in the knick of time! Or so we thought...the new toy had the tail and a leg ripped off within 48 hours. We will probably try this toy one more time as the 1st one did so well(lasted 5 months)...I am hoping we just got a faulty batch.

My dog is a chewer, so when I saw that Kong makes stuffed animals with less stuffing than the usual fluffies, I had to give it a go. This little guy was a five star toy if you ask my dog, but I'm taking away one star based on how amazingly fast my dog was able to destroy it to get at the squeaker. Less than five minutes, to be exact. He was so proud of himself! I'm leaving it at four stars because he's still loving sinking his chompers into the squishiness of his alligator. Even if this thing doesn't last a day, the pure joy my dog is getting from it is worth every affordable penny!

Our dogs really love the kong cozies and we have three different types. Our 2 yo German Shepard will instantly chew the butt off to get the squeaker out and de-stuff it but will carry it around and still play with the skin. Our 5 MO and 9 MO Cattle dogs are great with it. They play tug with them and shake them about but have yet to chew holes in them. They have had them for about 10 days now.

I love the King Cozie line, so far I have the Moose, the Koala, the Dog, and the Alligator. My dogs love to chew and tug on them, and snuggle with them at night, but have yet to damage any of them at all. Very durable. My dogs seem to prefer the grey Koala and blue Dog over the Alligator and the Moose, but this is a great toy.

I have a 6 year old pit bull who is an extremely aggressive chewer and every toy I get she destroys in literally five minutes. But this toy I wanted to try because it was so cheap and had good reviews. It is still in one piece and she carries the alligator around everywhere she goes and even sleeps with it!

A bit stronger than the usual stuffed toy but she was able to dig/pull at the seams and rip out the stuffing pretty quickly. She had another one of these (rhino) and she tore the face off of that within a day.

Wish they were a little tougher. Eventually she shreds them but only after several weeks of loving them and carrying them everywhere. We keep purchasing them....it might have something to do with her teeth and her young age (just 1 year.)

Got this green alligator and the pink elephant. Within 10 ten minutes these were destuffed and shredded! Only good if your dogs like to cuddle with this type of toy!
