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!
 
I'm so excited to find these! Thank you for posting! My little toy chihuahua is distroying everything I give her to play with so fast I've run out of idea's (and toys!)
 
Just made this for my little yorkie and he loves it. Got the treats out quick though. Thanks!
