boring noisemaker egg
Our puppies found the hard egg funny because it makes a loud noise against the house wall, but the big dogs found it boring since it doesn’t bounce and you can’t catch it either. Unfortunately, a bad purchase.

Well...
I'm not quite sure what to say about this egg... My dog found it amusing for about 5 minutes. But since this egg is made of hard plastic and he doesn't seem to like that, it's now just lying around in the garden. Really quite a shame!

Unfortunately, bitten through very quickly, SUCH A SHAME!
The egg is not suitable for German Shepherds
I have a Malinois-Border Collie, and he regularly brings me the egg, plus he’s already bitten holes into it
Also, the plastic isn’t good for rough play; he keeps hitting it against his paws every time.

Super!!
We bought the egg for our 11-month-old Boxer; he's absolutely crazy about balls, and with the egg, we hit the nail on the head. It's sturdy, has already fallen down the concrete cellar stairs countless times, and it's still intact.
Would definitely buy again anytime!!

The egg is *T H E* toy for our Labrador mix lady Meta and her friend, Border Collie Ricco.
Both absolutely love the egg.
Perfect for letting off steam, fun factor 10.
We also have so much fun watching the two rascals romp around with the egg.
Finally, a toy that doesn’t break after 10 minutes but has already survived many play sessions. The fact that the egg is so hard and can’t be picked up in their mouths makes it so durable.
So far, we haven’t noticed any injuries.
I can’t imagine how any could occur, either.
I’m ordering a second one straight away so that each dog has their own.

The egg would be damaged in 10 minutes.
My German Shepherd played with it for 10 minutes, and then the egg had holes and deep scratches... I’m lucky his teeth stayed intact!! Due to the risk of injury, I ended up throwing the egg away. The egg is not recommended for medium-sized dogs (like GSDs) or larger breeds!!

Super activity!!!
Our Jack Russell finally has a toy that can withstand him! No other toy lasted long against his teeth, but now he can really let loose. It's a sight to see how the little guy manages with the egg.
Thanks to you!

Unfortunately, bitten to pieces within minutes, SUCH A SHAME!
Our German Shepherd punctured the egg like Swiss cheese within minutes, and to prevent an injury from the hard but apparently far too thin plastic, we ended up throwing the expensive egg away. SUCH A WASTE OF MONEY! In the future, we'll probably stick to the black Kong – at least it delivers on its promises!

Super Ding
I have the egg – though in the smaller size, which really should be added to the range here as well.
Our puppy (Kooikerhondje, now 10 weeks old) loves playing with it. Of course, you need to supervise the dog while playing to make sure it doesn’t get too wild and he doesn’t hurt himself. But that’s something you should always do anyway, right?
I didn’t think of trying to put treats inside – if that were the point, it would probably be mentioned in the description.
I think we’ll have a lot of fun with the egg for the dog’s entire life.

tested for 1 year now
I bought the egg last year. At first, my German Shepherd, now 2 years old, didn’t know what to do with it. I just kept playing with him using it, and now he’s so obsessed with the egg that I’m not even allowed to join in anymore. He goes absolutely wild with it, and the fact that it’s so hard doesn’t seem to bother him at all. On top of that, he’s figured out a trick to carry the egg, and when he feels like it, he takes it wherever he wants. I’m going to order another egg now and give it to a friend of mine—let’s see what his dog makes of it!

Only suitable as a decorative item
The egg is made of hard plastic. No dog can bite into it or fetch it. Our dog lost interest in it in less than a minute and couldn’t be persuaded to play with it anymore. Now we’re using it as a decorative egg for Easter. Unfortunately, far too expensive for that. :(

Killjoy
I should have paid attention to the other negative reviews. The egg is made of hard plastic and is far too heavy for a dog's nose to nudge around.
Such an egg is a total buzzkill for the dog!
What a waste of money – I could have bought several footballs with that!

Toys for dogs that are independent and need to burn off energy
Our dog, an Australian Kelpie, is absolutely thrilled with this egg. We spent quite a while looking for a toy that our dog wouldn’t destroy so quickly (within 2 minutes). We’ve finally found it. Members of our dog club told us about the egg and how their two German Shepherds were having loads of fun with it. So, we decided to give the egg a try as well. And our dog has had a great time with it (even after 2 years), though we didn’t consider how clever our dog is. He’s figured out how to rotate the egg in his paws so that the pointed end faces upwards, and then he picks it up in his mouth. This way, he manages to carry the egg all around the garden.
The egg is highly recommended for any dog owner who wants to keep their furry friend entertained and tire them out while avoiding mindless boredom.

The favourite among his toys
Our dog Spike (Australian Shepherd) is absolutely thrilled with this thing. Normally, Spike and his owners manage to break everything while playing, but the egg is still intact.
For dogs that love the fun and excitement of chasing something they can't easily catch, the egg is perfect.

Gameplay factor SUPER!!!!
I bought this for my old German Shepherd (9 years). She loves the egg and has a lot of fun playing with it.
Unfortunately, she managed to make two holes in it.
But it definitely provides some variety.

Something different expected than a plastic egg
Our dogs (German Shepherd and Jack Russell mix) have absolutely no interest in the egg. The product is not worth the money.

Gameplay factor top
Our German Shepherd Iven (2.5 years old) is absolutely crazy about the egg. He can hardly wait to play with it. However, he managed to bite several holes into it. Then the plastic bends upwards, which poses a risk of injury. I'll be ordering him a replacement egg now. In terms of fun factor, it's top-notch.

Flop
When I saw the egg, I thought: This is it! My Border Collie loves balls of all sizes, especially ones that bounce nicely. But this egg doesn’t bounce at all. On the contrary, whenever I try to get my dog to play with it, she backs away. The material is far too hard, posing a significant risk of injury, especially for dogs with long legs. It’s not easy for the dog to grip and quickly becomes uninteresting. After just two uses, the material has already cracked – in short: a complete flop.

Super toy
Our dog, a Flat Coated Retriever, usually destroys all balls or runs off with them, but with this egg, he has an absolute blast! And as the owner, you finally get to enjoy throwing the egg again. It's a bit hard, but our dog goes absolutely crazy whenever it's time to head to the garden with the egg.

For the price, I expected something better.
The egg doesn’t interest my dog at all; my friend’s German Shepherd tried to play with it once, and that was it. I thought the egg would be a bit softer or at least coated with rubber. Unfortunately, it’s just a hard shell. I would never buy it in a shop. I would have sent it back if I hadn’t destroyed the packaging…
