: Tug A Jug?
: Big Guy April 23, 2008, 11:49:45 PM
I saw the Tug a Jug toy at Target today. It gets great reviews on Amazon. Do any of you have it? I'm thinking of usung it to feed my big guy because he eats way too fast from his bowl.

Oooo! Ooooo! Oooooo! I have one! I have one! I got it from my Secret Santa, navarre!!

It is very fun. Miles is a VERY strong chewer and it is still surviving in this house. The plastic is super strong. He did manage to chew the rope off though. Still works pretty good though.

I guess it could be a good alternative to feeding a pup that eats too fast. I would make sure the kibble is a small enough in size so it's somewhat easy to get out though. Although, the hole is not very small, so most kibble should be ok.

I have  no clue what the Tug thing is but our vet recommended putting tennis balls in our dog bowls to slow them down.  It works for both kira and Gunner since they have to slow down to eat around the balls.

That sure would slow down their eating habits though, wouldn't it? Stopping for a play in between. ;) haha
