Great for high energy dogs!,
If you have a high energy dog that needs to be busy “working” all the time, the Chuckle is a GREAT toy. This toy is the one toy that my very high-energy Austrailian Cattle Dog (aka Blue Heeler) plays with by herself. She works and works to get the treats out. She also has the Busy Buddies Football – another good sturdy toy that challenges her to earn her treats.
My ACD uses the Chuckle like a hockey stick to bat her toys and balls around like they are hockey pucks. She uses it as a “pole vault” to raise her front legs off the floor. It occupies her for hours.
The Chuckle and the Football both last for several months – which is highly unusual. Most toys I’ve gotten her last for 5 minutes. The noise maker in the stem of the Chuckle doesn’t usually last long – but I’m not a fan of the squeaky noise anyway! She continues to play with it without the squeak so that works for both of us.
I highly recommend Busy Buddies toys for agressive chewers and high energy dogs.

|My pup loves it, but. . .,
I have two dogs–one just over a year, one over 12 years old. My puppy really likes this toy–and she has a lot of experience with “puzzle toys.”
But I find that while she will spend a lot of time trying to get stuff out (I usually put some of her normal kibble in), she never can. And so what happens is, stuff gets really cruddy and gross and rotten inside the ends if you don’t find a way to get the stuff out. And there is no easy way to get stuff out–that’s the point, right?
My best find has been to get a chopstick or something and stick through the hole on the sides of each end and twirl it around to push stuff out. Running water in and doing this seems to help as well. It’s a very imperfect science, and it takes a while. But I did manage to get everything out as far as I can tell.
Another plus is that, she will definitely not destroy it by chewing it–it’s very solid. She’s a medium sized puppy with a pretty persistent approach to most chewy things, and I am 100% certain, she won’t ever chew this thing. She seems more interested in getting stuff out than chewing the actually toy.
