KONG Gyro Dog Toy

My dog carries this around with him everywhere he goes. We give him snacks in it twice a day (just his regular kibble). I do wish it didn't break so easily. He's a 50 lb Australian Shepherd and we have the large gyro. He often drops it down the stairs or on the hard tile, so after some time, the blue center breaks. Also, I have to super glue the center together otherwise it comes apart and he ends up chewing on the separated plastic. We go through about 2 of these a year. My dog actually likes it better when the red plastic gets a bit chewed up because it's easier for him to grip. If your dog is really hard on toys, this one is not for you. For us, my dog would go crazy without it.

I love the idea of this design so much so does my border collie puppy. We just put his regular kibble in the blue ball and he loves chasing the toy to get the treat. He also loves the toy when there is no food in it. He would go crazy if we just roll the toy on the tile floor so he could chase them. Highly recommended for puppies who love playing fetch.

I got this as a gift for my puppy when he was very young. He loves to smack it around the floor. It's how I fed him his meals the first few weeks. He does chew on it so I have not had the experience such as those in the negative reviews but it is not a toy I put him away unsupervised with. He would often pick it up and bring it to me and drop it for his next meal.

I like Kong products and I like this toy idea, however my labradoodle upon first use was able to bite the red ring and it was left with sharp jagged chomp marks all in it showing too soft a plastic/material. If it was made of that hard rubber maybe it would've been better. So my money is pretty much wasted.

The treats and food come out way to easy. It only spins one way so once have whole at bottom all the treats fall out with just a little pushing.

My pup enjoying tossing this around and pouncing on it more than rolling it. It’s fun to watch & easy to clean. The outer ring quickly accumulated a lot of scratches & scuff marks that hinder the toys rolling movement. The plastic is way too soft. He figured out how to pop open the ball by pouncing on it a certain way but knows I’ll take it away if he does so it hasn’t happened in a long time. To up the challenge I’ve put a ping pong ball or 1-2 larger treats that block the hole more.

I have no idea how this product is supposed to work and neither does my puppy. I can get the kibble to come out if I manipulate it with my palm, but it is difficult and not intuitive. I can't imagine how my puppy is supposed to do it. It is also very difficult to open and close to put in or remove kibble.

No, I do not recommend this item. As a KONG toy, I was expecting durability. My dog chewed the red, exterior ring, in 30 minutes. The plastic is pliable, and flexible it certainly is not durable for a large dog. I am very disappointed in my KONG Gyro Dogtoy.

Before my pup had mastered it, her chewing made it so it wouldn’t spin completely around. After first day when the novelty and newness wore off I could never get her interested again. Maybe because it already wouldn’t spin around all the way anymore? Maybe I should’ve stopped her when she wasn’t getting it? Either way don’t feel like toy should destruct when not figured out right away

We’ve used this for our high energy boxer girl for almost a year and love it! Ours held up much better than other reviewers, but she doesn’t chew on it. She pushes it around with her nose and paws. We put one of her meals in it everyday, then pick it up as soon as the food is gone. It’s a great way to slow down her eating, keep her mind busy, and keep her busy!
