Carolyn Pike Roman Webboard User Reg: 03-20-2007 Posts: 559 Loc: San Antonio, TX Offline	I picked one of these http://leerburg.com/797.htm up at a new petstore in town last night. I was thinking this should keep dixon busy for a little while at least. It took him about 5 minutes to pop the treat out of the ball... he then proceeded to chew on it for the next hour and a half. I guess I didn't expect him to figure out how to get the treat out so quickly. Did I do something wrong? I only left one side of the treat in (as it comes packaged). Has anyone tried these http://www.amazon.com/StarMark-TCELKMC-Everlocking-Medium-Chicken/dp/B000FMDIKM ?

You may want to try the ball with a treat in both sides, my dog also tends to pop it out with only one in, but not with both. It lasts for days! http://www.dragondreamsleather.com

I thought she was chewing the end piece, but she popped it off and decided to chew through the rubber in about 2 minutes. It's not an everlasting toy for dogs you like to chew with their molars. Edited: Just adding it took her about 5 minutes when she first got the toy to get both end pieces off. Second time, one end piece was popped off immediately and the ball torn an the edge within 2 minutes. I found it to be a total waste of money. It was easier for me to just buy her the end pieces to chew. The locking treats are very tough to put together without breaking them, I will not be buying either of these again.

The Buster FoodCube http://leerburg.com/1124.htm keeps him busy much longer, though it can be a little noisy. http://home.comcast.net/~rrpallechio/Hans/hans_signature.jpg

So far those are the best- We have the food cute but he seems to lose interest more quickly than when he can see the food. Maybe I need to overload it again to make it interesting. Thanks again
