Falling apart after third use (Fixed – updated review below)
ORIGINAL REVIEW: Got this for my puppy to help our yaky chews stand a chance but the rubber is already cracking at the edges. Maybe my yaky was too big or maybe our dog was a little too rough on it…I am hoping this one was just defective and have returned it for a replacement. If the second one stands up to his regular use I will update my review with what we learn.Aside from the cracks at the edges, my dog did love the toy. He carried it around even when it was empty and we tested it with water buffalo pizzle sticks which worked great too. It definitely keeps his little brain occupied longer than the treat by itself. There are some reviews saying the dog can’t get to the cheese – if the dog is still interested and is licking and playing then the toy is serving it’s purpose of keeping the cheese safe from being devoured in five minutes. The licking will soften the cheese and the dog will still get some of the treat, just very slowly. After a couple of hours our cheese hardly had any damage but the dog absolutely loved it. The jug head (if the next one isn’t defective) is not only prolonging play, it’s keeping dogs safe from choking themselves on small pieces they could normally break off of the cheeses.With all that said, your mileage may vary but with my three agressive chewers I rate this a 3/5 with hopes that the toy I got was just a bad batch and the next one may last longer. Great concept!UPDATE: after over a year with four of these jughead’s now I am upgrading this product to 5/5 stars. The first one we had did start to fall apart but the Amazon return process made it easy to swap out and we haven’t had an issue since. I think now the issue with the first one was just my own learning curve – I think the cheese I was using was too big so I bought 2 medium and 2 large jughead’s to make sure no matter what size cheese I get it will fit, plus, now each dog can have their own jughead! As. All four of the jughead’s we use are in great shape and have no splitting like that first one. I recommend the jughead to all of our friends and family.

Pyrenees Approved
So, if youâve ever met a Great Pyrenees, you know theyâre enormous. With enormity comes enormous, powerful jaws and big, strong teeth. Miss Xena, my Pyrenees puppy, was decimating an XL cheese chew in about five minutes, quite literally. That gets expensive, real fast. And itâs no fun for Xena, when the five minutes are up and mom doesnât have anymore pricey cheese for her. Enter the jughead. This thing is a game changer, seriously. Sheâs been chewing the same chew for 2 days and while itâs got tooth marks all over the exposed parts of the cheese, that sucker remains intact and sheâs still enthralled by it. This is fantastic.It was very easy to put the cheese inside, stays in securely. No complaints there. My only issue with it is the horrible odor and the flavor. How do I know it tastes bad? I know, that sounds really weird. I didnât lick it, I swear. I accidentally put my hand to my mouth after handling it, and the flavor is nasty, strong, and bitter. Wash it before you give it to your dog, and wash your hands after you handle it for the first time, or you will feel like you ate one of those earwax flavor joke jellybeans for the next few hours.Anyway, five stars from me. My dog is thrilled. The other three dogs are pretty upset with me though, for only getting one. Iâm kicking myself too, I bought this during the Amazon pet days sale for $10 and now itâs double that. But itâs worth it, so I just ordered two more. Canât disappoint the furry masses, after all, in the name of saving a few dollars. Iâm thinking Iâll make it up in savings on cheese chews anyway.

Good product but short of what I hoped for
Pros:Makes cheese chew last longer.Our dog seems to stay engaged for a long period of time.Will us as chew toy even when empty.Cons:Don’t know what brand other folks are using for cheese chews but the chews I use can not fit bigger then a medium in.Since our dog likes to use as chew toy, it is not likely to last as we are already seeing some tearing from chewing on it.Our dog will finish the center section of the cheese chew that is easy to get to, then we have two short pieces that will fall out of the toy. If we just give our dog a loose cheese chew, we only end up with one small piece. Part of the attraction to the toy was being able to avoiding having the dog chew on pieces small enough to potentially choke on.Bottom line. cheese chews do last longer. Dog loves playing with the toy. Durability is questionable as chewing damage is visible after the second or third cheese chew. Does not eliminate and actually increases potential for dog having small pieces to chew on. More susceptible to damage from chewing than I hoped for. Like any chew toy, SUPERVISION IS REQUIRED. Level up supervision dependent on dog and chewing habits

Product is great – but really depends on your dog
The toy is great! Well made and does what it says! The rubber is very durable, the design is clever, and the directions for getting the chew in are clear! I didn’t have trouble inserting the recommended chew.Once the chew is in the dog can only nibble on it with her front teeth since the ends are covered and her jaws are too big to get her back teeth down into the toy.Our dog doesn’t like it because she gets VERY frustrated that she can’t get her favorite treat out. She resorted to her very saddest whining and throwing it around trying to knock the chew out. She is a 68 lb mega mutt, medium-hard chewer, with excellent throwing skills. At the time of writing this she was 13 months.I gave in and took the chew out for her because I am a terrible softie and something was going to get broken with all the tossing. Toward the end she laid her head on it and just cried – it was hilariously pathetic. So this was not a win for us, but that’s not the toy’s fault.

Awesome length for keeping dog busy

Based on the inconsistent sizes of yak chews at my local petsmart, it can fit large, medium, and even some small and extra large. Anything from 5 1/4 inches to 5.5 inches. Holds the chew nicely. Dog has yet to cause any damage from chewing the rubber. Downfall is he is less interested in his chew at times heâs feeling lazy. It does also have a slight rubber smell. He loves it even without a chew in it.

I have a puppy who paces! This kept her busy for 4 hrs ! I have put a few different chews inside it . I highly recommend. She is a toy destroying girl and this one has been good for a week !!

My puppy was not impressed with the smell of the chew, and it was very difficult to get rid of it. The chew’s advertising is also very misleading, as you think the Super 100% Natural Cheese Chew comes with it, which it doesn’t. You ask yourself, what are you advertising more, the chew or the insert?

Brought this for my cavalier that choose like a Rottweiler and thankfully it has defeated him, I put the medium yakbar inside it then put it in the microwave and it puffed up and over a week later he still hasn’t got it all out not even by half fantastic buy and a lot cheaper than the branded version
