"Holds and dispenses food and treats for hours of fun. Fun and Beneficial. Stuff with kibble and treats to keep dogs busyfor hours. Use dog toothpaste on patented dental ridges to clean teeth and massage gums. The octagon shape facilitates chewing. Made from safe, natural rubber that is washing machine and dishwasher safe."

The best of all possible worlds: the Kong Stuff-a-Ball is a treat dispenser, a wild-bouncing rubber "ball," and a dental cleaning device all in one. Made from the same super-durable, puncture-resistant, non-toxic rubber as classic Kong toys, it's designed to hold treats that dispense as a dog rolls the ball, chews, and plays. Wedge biscuits into the center ports and smear peanut butter or Kong brand Stuff 'N Pastes in the crevices, and extracting the contents becomes a "hunt" to keep any pooch happy and busy for hours while their owner's away. For the pooch with separation anxiety or problem behaviors, chewing on a Stuff-a-Ball provides boredom prevention, stress relief, and intellectual stimulation while she's home alone. Not to mention the dental benefits: the Stuff-a-Ball's ridged exterior grooves gently "squeegee" teeth and gums clean, helping prevent plaque and tartar buildup (not to mention canine halitosis). Try smearing doggy toothpaste (or Kong Stuff 'N Breath Treat) into the exterior grooves to motivate your dog to chew and freshen their breath at the same time. Best of all, the irregularly shaped design produces a goofy, unpredictable bounce that will keep your dog's attention far longer than a conventional round ball. Measuring 3-1/2 inches in diameter, this Stuff-a-Ball is recommended for medium- to large-sized breeds, ranging from dachshunds on up to boxers and standard poodles. Regularly inspect your ball for cracks or missing chunks, and replace worn or damaged toys to avoid a choking hazard. Satisfaction is guaranteed; if either you or your dog aren't happy with your purchase, return within 30 days for a full refund. --Mary Park

I recently bought this toy for my 10-month-old Shih-Tzu, Missy, who loves to chew. She was really excited about it when I got it out of the package. I put a small biscuit-type treat in it (not Kong brand, as I didn't have any of those) and a week later, the treat is still in the ball. It did keep her attention a good bit the first day but, since then, she shows only occasional interest in the ball. I guess I'm not clear on how the treat-dispensing component of this ball works--or perhaps you have to use Kong brand treats. I was hoping that this was going to keep her interest longer for when I am away from home, since she has separation anxiety.

I'm very happy that the ball is so sturdy. She has spent some time chewing on it and chasing it around and it still looks brand new.

I have a 14 year-old 40 lb American Eskimo that can clean out the medium red Kong toys in no time flat--even if I freeze them and get creative with my stuffing. I switched to the medium black Kong toys for more aggressive chewers, and that slows her down a little. But this ball toy tops them all.
I use the Kong Snaps, Stuff 'n' spray and Ziggies, and she'll usually wear out and curl up, satisfied, before it's empty. She's never really been interested in fetching, but this toy never fails to excite her and ignite her hunt instinct.

I have a small dog and within minutes she had parts of this Kong toy chewed off. I purchased the Kong because of its high ratings with other consumers but it is not the item if you have a dog with sharp teeth who chews toys up in minutes.

this toy is awful. it claims its a kong toy but in the matter of 12 hours, it was already torn apart by my dog. DO NOT BUY, IT WILL NOT LAST!

My puppy liked this toy much better than the regular kong. It was real easy to stuff the inside with dry kibble that would slowly fall out as well as putting peanut butter inbetween the lil ridges.
Keeps her busy for a long time, and she hasn't managed to destroy it.
