Too fragile and plastic lights potentially hazard - Small dogs only IMO
This is very cool for a cat or small dog. It jumps, it twirls, it's interactive or remote controlled. It also was too much stimulation for our 45 pound dog - too slow to escape her, she just picked it up and with a few quick chomps bit through the lights leaving a shard of plastic. This was all under 5 minutes. Waaayy too expensive for 5 minutes of play - and frankly had she cut her mouth, it would have been a very expensive and traumatic five minutes. Very disappointed. The design flaws would not even make a one year warranty worth it.
I am actually glad this needs to be used with the human's phone nearby. There's a sharp piece of plastic now exposed. Our dog is not especially strong, fast or powerful, so I cannot quite wrap my head around the scores of dogs they claim to have tested this on.
A couple other problems:
1) body is hard plastic rather than rubberized like a kong
2) charging port is in the cover with an odd shaped bone you pull out to reveal hole (loss risk)
3) area around lights covered with plastic / weaker than rest of bone
4) too easy for dog to pick up/grab
Bottom line: It is SUPER cool, but I cannot recommend it for an active chewer able to get a good grip on this bone.
