“Solidly made and arrived very fast. I recommend it, though for very large dogs it will be on the small side.”
“Ideal for cooling my dog down and making him frozen treats. Works just as shown.”
“I love this. A cool toy for my puppy and great for the hot summers.”
“It really works. My dog kept licking it non-stop for about 5 minutes.”
“So far so good. Good quality orange set, the ball and silicone tray are easy to fill and use.”
“For a small dog it's perfect. Mine weighs 40 kg so it's a little small for him, but the function itself is perfect. The ball gets coated when they lick it and keeps them entertained.”
“Smaller than expected, but I still gave 4 stars since the quality is acceptable and the size is in the description.”
“This is actually a really good toy, pleasantly surprised.”
“Haven't tried it yet, but I already have a lot of dog toys at home and this is nice for some variety, even during mealtime. It makes eating more exciting and fun for them.”
“It's small, like for a tiny puppy or a chihuahua, but it works and my dachshund likes it.”
“Pretty and easy to use, but the yellow ball is hollow, which makes me doubt how durable it will be over time.”
“Just like the picture. A lifesaver for keeping my little dog entertained while I go out to shop or work.”
“The ball is quite sturdy. They love the toy and it keeps them very entertained. Highly recommended.”
“My dog absolutely loves it, thank you.”
“Excellent product. Well built, good quality silicone. My dog spent half an hour happily licking the liver 'popsicle' we put inside, with no mess.”
“Works great. Price and shipping were top notch.”
“Works great. My dog loves it and it really tires her out.”
“I had already bought one to try. It keeps my dog entertained and is a good alternative to the famous Kong. I bought a second for my other dog.”
“Very good material, it's thick and works perfectly. For my German Shepherd it's a little small, but the quality is excellent.”
“The dog likes it. Keeps him busy.”
“My dog loves it. I even ordered a second one.”
“Great way to feed your cat, good product.”
“My Golden loved licking the frozen watermelon inside the ball!”
“I bought it for my dog to help ease his anxiety. With a bit of yogurt he spends about 10 minutes trying to eat it all, though you do have to open it to push out the bit that stays at the edge where he can't reach. Shipping was fast.”
“My dog totally approves. I'm going to order a second one.”
“It looks good. I did have some trouble unscrewing it once I put it together. It's a Christmas gift so not used yet.”
“My dogs loved it, they played with it for 30 minutes.”
“It's great! My dogs loved it straight away, and it's easy to clean too.”
“Material is nice and soft. Not recommended for dogs that bite and tear rather than just lick, but my two calm dogs do great with it.”
“My girl really loves it. She is about 30 kg, a large dog, and she can spend 15 to 30 minutes distracted with it. It's easy to twist off and clean. Highly recommend, especially if your dog loves chewing.”
“Just like the listing, very good.”
For the dog who can't seem to switch off, this is the half-hour of quiet you've both been missing. A frozen treat taps straight into the urge to lick and work for a reward, so a restless pup settles on their mat instead of pacing, pestering, or melting down on a hot afternoon or a stormy night.
Here's why it works: slow, steady licking is naturally soothing for dogs and releases calming endorphins, while the puzzle of chasing a frozen treat through the ball tires out a busy mind. You fill the tray, freeze it overnight, and pop the frozen treat into the ball. What's left is a calm, focused dog and twenty to forty minutes of real peace.
- Squeeze-open rubber ball, about 2.8 in (7.2 cm), with open "drool slots" so they can see and reach the treat inside
- 4-cavity freezing tray for prepping treats ahead, made from 100% food-grade, BPA-free silicone
- Fill it with whatever they love: plain unsweetened yogurt, broth, peanut butter, or wet food (no xylitol)
- Comes apart in seconds for an easy rinse or dishwasher; the tray pops frozen treats out cleanly
- Best for dogs under 60 lbs, so check your dog's size before you order
This is a feeding and enrichment toy, not a chew toy, so keep it for supervised treat time and take it back once the treat is gone. Start with a small portion the first time to see how your dog does with a new filling.

Backed by science
What vets and research say
Real findings from peer-reviewed studies and veterinary guidance, matched to this toy.
Research links chewing to lower stress-axis activity, helping a dog hold a calmer state.
Quinn et al., Frontiers in Veterinary Science (2025) ↗In a study, dogs given a long-lasting chew stayed busier and showed less anxiety during short time alone than with a regular toy.
Flint et al., Animals (2023) ↗Frozen pet-safe treats are on veterinary lists of safe ways to occupy and cool a dog in hot weather.
AVMA — warm-weather pet-safety guidance ↗The difference
A bowl feeds. A kit settles.
- Gone in thirty seconds
- Energy still bottled up
- Gulping, then the clean-up
- Boredom finds the couch
- Ten to fifteen calm minutes
- Nose work drains the energy
- Slow eating, a settled gut
- A real job for the brain

Good questions
Before you buy.
Will this actually calm my dog down?
Licking is naturally self-soothing for dogs, releasing calming endorphins, so a frozen treat turns into 20 to 40 minutes of quiet, focused work. It is genuinely useful for summer heat, storms, fireworks, or anxious vet days.
Is it easy to clean?
Yes. The rubber ball twists apart in the middle and the silicone tray pops the frozen treats out, so both rinse clean easily. Owners specifically mention how simple it is to take apart and wash.
What size dog is this for?
It is best for dogs under 60 lbs, meaning small and medium breeds (roughly 10 to 60 lbs). For dogs over 60 lbs we would not recommend it, since the ball is sized for smaller mouths.
Is it a chew toy?
No, it is a feeding and enrichment toy, not a chew toy, so please supervise your dog while they use it. It is built for licking the frozen treat out, not for hard gnawing.
What goes inside it, and what comes in the set?
You get one natural rubber ball plus one food-grade silicone tray with four cavities. Fill the tray with plain yogurt, bone broth, xylitol-free peanut butter, or wet food, freeze overnight, then twist a frozen treat into the ball.
What if my dog does not take to it?
It is backed by our 60-day guarantee, and shipping is free. Start with a thin, easy-to-reach filling like plain yogurt so the first try is simple and rewarding.
