Good, but not suitable for destructive dogs
Absolutely very well suited for dogs that don’t show strong destructive tendencies! In principle, the Kong Fox is good and well thought out... I also think the rope inside is great, but unfortunately, our Aussie managed to expose it quite easily because the fabric is relatively soft and was therefore easily chewed through. The reason for this is presumably (which I actually think is a good thing) that, apart from the head, there’s no foam inside... but as I said, I think that’s a good feature.

Our dog loves it
We’ve bought this fox for the second time now because our dog absolutely loves it. He doesn’t play with any other toy as much as he does with the fox. The first one suddenly disappeared after about nine months, but it was still in perfect condition. The fur was a bit worn, but it was intact and still squeaked. Highly recommended!

Not suitable for dogs
Our dachshund mix had the nose off within 5 minutes, and the rest followed within 15 minutes. Our Naldo still has a Kong plush toy from last year that is much sturdier and still intact. Such a shame, the quality is poor.

Didn't last long
We ordered the large Knot Fox, and unfortunately, the knot in the nose was chewed through after just a few minutes, leaving the nose damaged. Quite a shame, considering the price!

Not suitable for Bull Terriers
Unfortunately, the squeaker broke very quickly... no longer interesting for the Bully... such a shame.

The KONG Scrunch Knots Fox was damaged after just a few minutes.
My Sheltie chewed a hole in the fabric to get to the rope. I had to throw the Kong away because I was worried he might swallow the plastic threads.

Perfect toy
The fox was a big hit! Our dog can play with it for hours. Great retrieving toy, we’d happily buy it again 👍

Broken after 3 hours
Our Labrador girl thought the fox was absolutely brilliant – unfortunately, after 3 hours the head was off and shortly after, the rope was pulled out. And that’s without even tugging on the toy. I expected more from Kong. Not recommended.

Super
My little one loves the fox. Had to buy a second one because he takes it everywhere with him.

My dog is thrilled!
I am absolutely thrilled with the little fox. I unpacked it, and my dog immediately ran off with it. Tugging, shaking, and hours of chewing – it has survived all of that so far. It’s the first toy she’s genuinely played with, and I actually have to convince her not to take it outside with us on walks.

Very impressed
This is by far the most durable chew toy we have bought so far for our teething 20 week old springer. Also his favourite, chews it relentlessly, and so far it has held out with no tips or tears. Other more expensive recommended ones I have had to remove on day 1. Will definitely buy again ...
Super!
We got our Aussie Terrier mix when she was 5 months old, now she’s two years old and still has fun with it, and the fox isn’t broken either and still squeaks.

Absolute favourite toy
Right on the first day our Golden Retriever puppy moved in with us, he grabbed this thing and carried it around with him.

Robust!
At least the little fox survived the first day! Let’s see how long it lasts, considering the squeaker in its head.

Not cockapoo proof
Happy with ordering and delivery processes however I was pretty disappointed that my 10 month old cockapoo managed to destroy it within the first couple of hours. The rope was very quickly and easily extracted.

Favourite toy
I bought this fox for my Greater Swiss Mountain Dog puppy and my in-laws' Akita Inu puppy. It's an absolute hit – both of them love the fox so much, and when they play together, there's always a bit of a tussle over it. It's also great as a tug toy or for fetching, and by the way, it's very gentle on the floor. Definitely worth getting!!!

Brilliant Toy
As a Red Fox Labrador, ‘Foxy’ was my first puppy toy and 18 mths later it is still my favourite. Other toys have been destroyed and thrown away. It has been through the washing machine many times and survives easily. I’m now being bought a new one as there is a tiny bit of wear n tear. Love it.
He loves this toy :-)
He’s always playing with it. He’s torn apart many toys straight away, but this one is very sturdy!

Rather disappointed
After reading mostly positive reviews here saying that this fox toy holds up well even with Labradors, I thought, hey, great, that sounds promising. However, I have to say, our 6-year-old Lab-Aussie lady took just two days to "hunt down" the fox... On the positive side, the squeaker in the nose is still intact! She still enjoys chasing after the "scraps," but I had hoped for more!

The fun of the game is over in no time!
My French Bulldog was thrilled, but the fun was over in no time because the fox was ruined—the fox's head had a huge hole, and the rope was exposed!
I can only imagine how quickly this toy would break with a larger dog...
The sticker on the back couldn't be removed either!
I expect more from Kong.

Toy broken within 5 minutes
Within 5 minutes, the plush toy was in pieces all over the room. I have a 5-month-old dachshund.

Favourite toy
Our Golden Retriever girl (6 months old) loves her fox – she plays with it all the time, pulls and tugs at it. After two months of heavy use, it still hasn’t got any damage. Seems sturdy. We’ve already bought a second one for visits to Grandma :)

My dog loves it
It's her favourite toy, maybe because it looks like prey with its fur and shape. She never stops playing with it.

Built to last
Interesting as a toy and my Stafford can't manage to destroy it, I rarely review products, but so far this is the only toy that hasn't given up the ghost straight away.

Super that it has a different look
My 3-month-old puppy loves it because it squeaks, stretches, and has knots. After a month, she slightly tore off the head, but I think it's very durable. The only thing that didn't match was the look of the toy (it's a bit lighter orange and the label didn't say KONG knots, just KONG). The important thing is that she likes it, I highly recommend it.

Very disappointed with this toy
My dog is a one-year-old Labrador. I bought these toys for her. I gave her one yesterday morning and it didn’t even last 10 minutes. She tore the head off, completely destroyed the plush, and almost swallowed the little squeaker inside. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone. I actually think it should be removed from the catalogue or at least only recommended for very small dogs.

Favourite toy for 5 years!
My dog was thrilled with the fox from the very beginning and carried it around everywhere. Then it disappeared, so I ordered a second one. Now she’s had the toy in double for 5 years and carries it through the garden every day (unless she’s managed to lose it again). Even tugging hasn’t done the fox in yet. Still, I’m going to buy another one as a backup...

Dangerous
I gave this toy to my 10-year-old German Shepherd who has worn-down teeth... always under my supervision, but I looked away for 2 minutes and he bit the tail clean off and swallowed it whole... I thought the toy was sturdy, now I’m dealing with a vet emergency.

Fox
One of our favourite toys. It lasted 10 months. Only after that time did we manage to pull the string out from the inside. The squeaker still works. Since our dog has grown in the meantime, this time I’ll order a bigger size :)

Good, but not very durable
Cute fox, my dog quickly accepted it as a replacement for the teddy bear. It's better that it doesn't have any stuffing, but the rope inside is just as tempting. So first, holes were chewed into it, which I tried sewing up, but he just chewed them open again or made new ones elsewhere. After about a month, the entire rope was finally removed from it. So now, he actually has two toys :)

Favourite game :)
My puppy has been tugging and chewing on it all day, and even after a week the fox is still in one piece, even though he really doesn’t go easy on it :). Luckily, he rarely hits the squeaky part, so it’s the perfect quiet toy that keeps him entertained for ages.

broken after 5 minutes
I love Kong in general, we have a few things that are really sturdy. However, the fox only lasted 5 minutes. We've had this experience with all the fluffy toys from Kong so far, although we also have fluffy toys from other brands that hold up. We have an 8-month-old Continental Bulldog, maybe with smaller breeds it would last longer.

Lasting and versatile
The smaller version (S/M) has been a favourite for my puppy since she got it at 4 months old. After a month of playing really hard with it – tugging, chewing and all sorts – there’s still not a scratch on the toy. It’s the perfect mix of a tough toy and one you can snuggle up with. Can’t recommend it enough.
The bigger version, though, broke after just 5 days.

Easily breaks
My 4.5 month old puppy has had the smaller one for a month, and we were super happy with the quality – it’s her favourite. She’s grown so much that I decided to get the bigger one for her. It broke in 5 days – half of the head is torn at the seam and the end of the rope inside is now chewable. It’s definitely not the toy she’s roughest with or plays with the most.
