so far it's lasted 2 weeks... June 12, 2008 David W. Straight (knoxville, tennessee United States) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Important note: the extreme Kong is NOT the same as the red Kong, which apparently is much flimsier. I got this for my neighbor's good-natured pit bull Major, after seeing him shred everything else. Thin rubber squeaky toys last only a few hours, nylabones perhaps a day or two, and even the thick rubber chill pill got shredded. But the Kong Extreme has (to my surprise) remained intact. I had begun to think that only a chunk of cinderblock would survive...maybe. Extreme Kong takes funny bounces (which apparently is part of the idea. Toys with rope handles made for better slobber-avoiding toss-and-fetching, but handles got chewed off very quickly. You can throw this by poking your finger in the holes and tossing--it's marginally better in terms of slobber than many other toys. Kong comes in different sizes--the largest may outweigh your toy Chihuahua, so be judicious. If a neighbor has a pit bull, getting on his good side is important, even if he is as good-natured as Major!
Large Kong May 16, 2008 Donna J. Williams (Colorado Springs,CO) The toy arrived in good shape and one time. Only problem is that the dog ignores it.
Perfect for Power-Chewers May 3, 2008 a customer (CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have a Pit Bull (with a slightly hyper/anxious personality) who can chew through just about anything. The King Extreme Kong is the only toy that he has a hard time destroying. Thankfully, it does not appear to make his gums bleed like other products we've tried in the past and it lasts for several months. It appears that my dog uses the Kong toy as a stress reliever as well--anytime he gets too excited he runs and finds his toy and chews on it until he calms down. Just make sure to get the Kong toy that is right for your dog. So, if your dog is a power chewer make sure to get him a Kong Extreme (they come in different sizes). If not, then the `classic' kong line may be more appropriate. We tried the Extra-large Extreme Kong and it was not strong enough for him. **Just a warning--the last two Kong toys we bought (one from amazon and one from a local pet store) have left black marks on our carpet. I'm not sure if they are making them differently, but be careful about the length of time your dog is allowed to play with the Kong.
Last For MONTHS! March 26, 2008 Anita Saying that our dogs like to chew is an understatement. They can destroy just about any dog toy out there within minutes. NOT this Kong toy! This is the ONLY toy (other Kong products as well) we have ever had that has lasted for MONTHS. We have never put any of the snack products available into the middle of any of the Kong toys. I would think if they were chewing to get to the snack, they would destroy the Kong that much faster. ?? The red Kong toys are great as well for chewers, but this black Kong toy is perfect for POWER CHEWERS! Our dogs are large neutered rescue females. :) Lab, Collie, Pit bull mixes.
