Thank you for this pattern :) I just made one for my dog. I put in a treat and half of a cellophane bag (to add some sound to the ball). It took him over an hour to get the contents out, and he never actually ripped much of the yarn :)

I'm always trying to make ways for him to have to work for treats, but the cardboard boxes that I've been putting them in, are now torn apart in 5 seconds :P And he's only an 18 pound, bichon/poodle mix.

This took him MUCH longer. Thank you :D
 
These are great little items to keep any pet playful. I have crocheted balls for cats and added some cat nip inside and a bell on the outside.
 
My dog is a minuture austrailian Shepard and will destroy ANYTHING in her path!! ( ex- ac unit wires ). I just made a doggie kong for her and she loves it- I can tell! Plus it sooo very easy to make. Thanks for the wonderful pattern!
