Starmark Treat Dispensing Pickle Pocket Dog Toy

I first bought a Pickle Pocket on sale at a local store. After the 5-minutes-or-less destruction of what seems like hundreds of toys, I started only purchasing discounted future chew “victims”. I was shocked to discover my 80lb pitty failed to put even a crack in it for over a month! Additionally, it sustained his interest better than other toys he has constant access to (we only allow unsupervised play with the toughest of toys). When he’s especially rambunctious I put peanut butter in and it keeps him occupied for 15 minutes or more. I was pleased to find that Chewy.com carried it at an even better price than the sale price I originally paid at our local store!

My 6 month old German shepherd/Coonhound mix is literally too smart for her own good. Any other puzzle toy I've bought her has been figured out within seconds. This is the first toy that actually keeps her busy for a good amount of time. I tried the treats made specifically for this toy but she could get those out too easily and didn't really care for them but I've found that what keeps her most busy is if you put Kong easy treat or some other spread into it. I gave it 4 stars only because some if the treats I've used get stuck in it and it's kind if a pain to clean but well worth it. I freeze it sometimes too! It's also way bigger than I thought it would be which is fine for my pup since she's My 6 month old German shepherd/Coonhound mix is literally too smart for her own good.

We adopted a 3 year old Dobie who has ripped up every plush toy in a matter of minutes and is not interested in rope toys at all. I was on the hunt for a toy that would keep her interested and when visiting another family with a GSD, she would not put his pickle toy down. I immediately added one to my next delivery and it has been a success every day. I put in small treats and kibble both and she will carry it around and play with it for almost an hour to get everything out of the toy. She will continue to play with it and toss it around so we have left if for her to play when we are home. I have not left it unattended yet.

Our dog loves it and so do we. It keeps her busy and happy. She is not a biter so bones just don't cut it. She's a 2 yr old yellow lab who loves challenges and prefers nibbling and gnawing at things. This keeps her occupied for a long time. We fill it with apples, carrots, kibble and various treats. While yah its made in China it appears harmless, its easy to wash, and for our dog it will not be a choke hazard. I love that it rolls and keeps her dancing and engaged. It's a bit big and has substantial weight. One size smaller would be perfect but we're not displeased that there isn't one. Fast shipping. Gotta love Chewy!!

My dogs love this with the treats and it keeps them busy and occupied, however, it's not as sturdy as I had hoped. I have 2 labs, one is just a year old and the other is 7 years old. The younger one is the more aggressive chewer but both have used this. And after only 4 uses, it's starting to break apart, mostly at the seams where the treats go. Too bad it isn't holding up better because I thought I had found the perfect toy!

This is the ONLY toy the dogger hasn't destroyed next to her Kong. I think the material deters her chewing it because she just squeezes it in her jaws when not searching for treats or peanut butter. It is her go to for playing fetch since it bounces well and is easily found due to it's color. An all around great toy! I will be purchasing this item for every dog I ever own as well as for gift giving. Don't ever stop selling it!

You can stuff this thing with treats galore, and your dog will love it. My GSD is crazy about it, though he tries to stick it up my nose when there are no more treats left in it. It does get slimy with drool after usages, but the dog likes it so much, we live with the slobber. So far, he hasn't ripped it apart, though he is working on it!

All three of my girls love this! I might need to get two more so everyone has their own! They like this a lot better than their Kong toys! They've been chasing it around since I took it out of the box and filled it. Also holds up to the tests of an avid and aggressive chewer too!

Our dog loves to chew and this one has held up for 2 months so far and it's one of the three toys she keeps going back to. We tuck pieces of dog chews/biscuits into the side openings. She loves it and it keeps her busy. Would definitely buy again, but so far, no need to replace it yet.

I purchased this for my 60lb 9 month old golden lab. He’s an extremely aggressive chewer and after reading some reviews I thought this might be a good fit for him. I was wrong. He’s had it now for 2 hours and he’s already managed to rip two sides of the treat pockets. It seems like no toy is safe from his jaws. If you have an extremely aggressive chewer I’d be cautious buying this. It’s sad too because he loved it, it just didn’t stand a chance with his chewing.
