5 reviews forKONG Gyro

We bought this for a border collie / setter mix. It really got his brain going and was a great way to give him a feed while keeping him active and stimulated. But he worked out that one way to get food out was to pick it up and simply drop it. This meant that it cracked within a month and broke competently after two. Perhaps the ball itself could be wrapped in a soft rubber to lessen the impact of falls and bangs. We may get another but there will have to be a limit!

I can't find the small one to review because that's the one I have, but I'll leave a review here anyway. My Little French bulldog is very treat motivated and doesn't play with any toys that don't smell of treats. She LOVES this toy and figured out straight away how to play with it. I didn't even think of filling it with food, but that's how I'm gonna feed her dinner today! Keeps her occupied. She loves it so I love it.

My Labrador really enjoyed this feeder but it’s just not robust enough. The little plastic tabs that secure the inner blue sphere into the red ring are too fragile and they broke within a few months of using the feeder once a week. That being said I still put treats into the blue ball and she chases that around the room and she loves playing fetch with the red ring so it still gets used and hasn’t ended up in landfill but I would have preferred it had lasted longer in one piece!

As the owner of a hyper active husky, kong toys are a god send for me. However with this toy I was not impressed. It is made of a cheap plastic that my dog managed to chew through in a week. Although it did keep him entertained the plastic cut his gums when chewing it so it ultimately ended up in the bin. Not impressed.

Once filled with treats it really does entertain my dog. He chases it around the floor. However, he also likes chewing it and it survived whole for several weeks. He decided that he prefers chewing it. He is a very strong chewer and weighs around 35 kg so it hasn't survived. it ends up as small pieces of plastic around an inch long at the most. They are not sharp and haven't injured my dog at all.I have bought a new one as it kept him entertained for a couple of months.
