Don't Be Without a Buster Cube! May 30, 2005
By Doxie Mom X 4 I bought a mini buster cube for my miniature dachshund to help build up his rear leg muscles a few months after he had back surgery. All I had to do was put a few pieces of his dry dog food in it and he figured it out quick. It's 7 years later and it's still his favorite toy. He can even pick it up with his mouth and carry it around the house. He puts it in his dog house and bangs it around for hours. He literally plays by himself and keeps busy all day in the yard too. He doesn't even care that I stopped putting food in it years ago. I had a few of these break after wear from the rocks in my last yard but I keep about 5 at a time in my house in case the company decides not to make them anymore. I bought one for my friend's pomeranian and he doesn't stop playing with it either. He now has two.

Definitely recommended! Jan 28, 2009
By S. Wong My dog is picky and doesn't eat his food in a bowl, but the buster cube solved all of that. This keeps him busy, exercised and happy. We fill it up two times a day for him. The only down side is filling the cube. You have to put the food in the hole, shake it for the food to slide through a hole on the side, and keep adding food. The whole process takes about 1.5 minute, which isn't too bad. I recommend this to all dog owners.

Loved it at first, but it's not very sanitary Nov 30, 2009
By G. Lopez I received the mini buster cube and my mini schnauzer had tons of fun with it. I put his kibble dinner in it and he tossed it around and got most of it out. However, over time I could hear that food "dust" was being left behind, and I found this product absolutely impossible to open and clean.
I tried to open with the instructions many times, asked different people for help, but the opening on the mini cube is so small that I couldn't really get my thumb in there (as the instructions recommend).
It was left unused for a bit and then one day when I picked up a small swarm of flies flew out of it! It was so disgusting I ended up throwing it away.
If you can manage to open it and clean it, this would be a perfect toy. Perhaps people have better luck with larged sized cube because it might be easier to open, but that one is much too big for my little dog.

Great, once they figure it out Oct 11, 2011
By M. Howells Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2WEQMDHQBQ2UM We give half of Bo's dinner in his bowl and the other half in the Cube and it's been really effective at keeping him occupied and slowing how fast he eats. There was a learning curve of a couple hours - I suggest when introducing it use really tasty treats and kick it around a few times to show there's good stuff coming out. With patience I imagine most dogs will pick it up. The biggest downside, and it's not really much of one, is that it can be a noisy process with the dog nosing the thing around on the floor and banging it into walls, chairs, etc., to get the kibble out.

The only toy that keeps them interested AND they can't destroy... Oct 12, 2011
By JEM Dog A: 42lb male corgi/lab/border collie
Dog B: 32lb female border collie/Godknowswhat
Dog A will crunch and bash to shards anything that resists him. Dog B will spend hours nibbling to bits anything that interests her.
Kongs stuffed with peanut butter and frozen survive all this but provide only 15min or so of dog engagement.
The Tug-a-jug is Dog A's favorite, but after a month he'd already managed to crack the thing in a bunch of places, after two months it was a miracle it was still in one piece, after three months it finally gave up. Dog B not too interested in Tug-a-jug.
The cube interests both, and neither has managed to do significant damage. Biggest negative is that it's very noisy as they're pawing, nosing, batting it around the floor.
