Starmark Everlasting Treat Bento Ball Tough Dog Chew Toy Large

Very Durable and keeps dog busy
We have a dog who loves to chew up EVERYTHING!! She is constantly getting into things and if she can’t reach an item of interest, she will find a way to get it, even if it means jumping up on the counter or pool table. LOL. We’ve tried every puzzle toy and treat you can imagine to keep her busy and tire her out mentally, but nothing really worked that well. She would figure the puzzles out quickly and become board with them after several uses, and preferred to try and chew up the plastic instead. Treats, like bully sticks, that should last a “long time” were gone within 10 minutes. I didn’t have high hopes for this product given the history of our dog, but I WAS WRONG!!! The treat was already in the ball when it arrived, so I gave it to her like that. She licked, pawed, and chewed at this treat for hours and did not get board with it. She wore down a little of the dome shape on the treat by the end of the night, but there was still a lot left when I took it up. I gave it to her again the next evening and again it kept her busy. By the third day, the treat was worn down to a ring shape so I took the treat out of the ball and gave it to her. She ate it in about 3 minutes. After examining the ball, it is still in good shape with no damage like we found with hard plastic toys like the kong wobbler. We will definitely be ordering the refills to use with this ball. Best product we have found for busy, destructive dogs who become board easily.

Not durable for aggressive chewers
By the end of the day my pit bull—60 pounds—had chewed all around the top to the point that it no longer held treats. Expensive toy for this to happen.

Wrong item sent
The bento ball itself is great but the extra 16 treats that were sent as part of the purchase were the wrong kind.The picture used in the Amazon ad is the one shown in the left part of the picture I posted (dome shaped treats with a dog named Lacey in the picture), and what I received is shown in the right part of the picture (ridged treats with a dog named Bella in the picture).The problem with the Bella treats is that they are a bit smaller than the Lacey treats which means that they dont fit sugly into the bento ball. This in turn means that my little maltipoo gets them out of the bento ball in a few minutes. This defeats the whol purpose of the treat, and even worse this is a choking hazard for small dogs which makes the product unusable for me. FYI – I have never had this problem with the Lacey treats – they work great which is why I bought this product since this is what was shown in the picture.I sent a message to the vendor about this but have not heard anything back. Amazon offered to refund me half of the total purchase price if I sent back both the ball and the 7 of the 8 treat packages (I opened one only to discover this problem), which is also not great.

Great for aggressive chewers
My dog loves these treats!! He is an aggressive chewer and this holds up and gives him a great challenge.

Once my five pound monster of a pup has chewed the chew, I use the little ball to make ‘sundaes’ for him. Thin slice of banana, 1/2 teaspoon or so of mashed blueberries, and a sprinkle of hemp hearts, and into the freezer. The sundae, not the pup 🙂

Mein Hund (und ich!) finden den Bento Ball spitze! Er hat ihn sofort zu seinem Bett getragen und begonnen daran herum zu lecken und beissen. Das Leckerli riecht echt angenehm und überhaupt nicht wie ein Hunde Leckerli, eher so wie etwas süßes. Natürlich hält es nicht ewig aber bin schon beeindruckt wie lange er damit beschäftigt ist. Ich gib’s ihn meistens für ~ 15 – 20 min. Das Spielzeug Teil ist super robust (und mein Hund ist ein Hai) und da kann ich mir gut vorstellen dass es everlasting ist! Ein Stern Abzug nur weil’s nicht ganz so einfach ist das Leckerli auszutauschen (und die Ersatzleckerlis sind etwas teuer).
