KONG Cozie Ali the Alligator Dog Toy

The best way I know how to review this product is tell you about my dogs & let you make your own choices. I have 5 dogs, but 2 of them (a gsd & lab) have made it their mission to rip all the stuffing & squeakers out of all toys. When I saw this was made by Kong, I was hoping that it would stand against them a little better. We received it September 30th & today October 15th that poor croc has been ripped apart. It honestly happened a few days ago. My other 3 (another gsd, a husky, & a vizsla) aren't as destructive & it would have lasted a lot longer if they were the only ones playing with it. I think the toy is made well & can withstand a moderate amount of play, it just wasn't made for my roughhousers The best way I know how to review this product is tell you about my dogs & let you make your own choices.

I’ve purchased 3 other Kong Cozie toys for my dog and he still has all 3. A little wear on them by he hasn’t been able to chew them open. He had this one for only 5 minutes before there was a hole and the tail chewed open. I don’t know what the difference is but definitely not satisfied with this one in particular.

My Aussie is squeak obsessed, so this Alligator was a hit immediately. Sometimes the squeaker lasts a day, bit this one was out in less than 5 minutes. Then copious amounts of stuffing follows. I know she likes a toy very much when she does this. The rest of the Alligator has remained intact, and she gives it "flea bites" so I know it's a favorite.

This is the perfect toy for my 2 puppers (between 50-60 lbs). They love playing with it! It is super durable with the Kong strength we all know and love. It has a squeaker, which I must say, is a strong squeaker. Its not easy to squeak...the pups have to apply some strength to make it squeak, but it keeps them interested. It is also the perfect size.

My dog has this toy before and it was very tough! She love chewing and breaking toys. It lasted for a long time. However, I got her a new one recently, she destroyed it within 3 hours. The quality has changed. Not the tough KONG toy anymore. I also got her the pink elephant, which also got ripped open by my 20lb 3yrs old frenchie.

We gave this to our one year old Lab and she loves it. Super cute... but... within a half hour of supervised play she had already chewed off the tail and eye. I thought buying a Kong product would hold up better. I don't expect it to last forever but it must assume that a dog would chew. Probably better for very young puppys or olde dogs?

My dog is picky with toys. He likes them to be soft and squeak, but he’s a part-Beagle so he can chew! I was looking for a toy he wouldn’t destroy in a matter of minutes. This toy is constructed well, with stitching that will take my chewer’s playtime, and stick around for one than one chewing fit.

My pitty mix LOVES this gator! It’s holding up pretty well to 2 solid days of chewing. Unlike her other toys, I am not allowed to take this from her to play fetch. She turns away with it so I can’t have it. ;)

This is a soft, fun toy in a perfect size for our thirty pound mini golden doodle. He enjoyed fetching and chewing it for a short time. The fur doesn't absorb spit so it stays very wet. Unfortunate, it only lasted a couple of rounds before the tail was eaten off and a hole was bitten through the fur.

I bought this toy because Kong is known to be a durable dog toy company, and I have an aggressive chewer. He's a medium sized labradoodle and he destroyed this toy in no more than 2 minutes. Super disappointed in this toy. Luckily I got it on sale...
