I'd like to use this as a way to feed part of my dog's meal. Will medium sized kibble fit into this toy?

No. We have a puppy and use her small Pro Plan puppy food and cut up the Mini-Milk Bone treats so they will fit.

Yes it will fit into the toy - I have also broken up dog bones and put them in there - my favorite are the Bil Jac treats. It's a great toy - good idea on dividing up meal time.

I believe that it will. Inside the round part there are prong looking things that you cut down to the size that you want. If you leave the prongs the size they come it will just make the dog work a little harder for the kibble. You can determine how much you want to make the dog work for it. I did cut the ones for our dogs and it is perfect because I know that they are able to get the kibble out. I'm able to fit around 20-30 small kibble on each side.I hope this helps you.

I just saw that a customer said that the kibble would not fit - I have a large size waggle bone - and it works fine.

I sincerely doubt it. I bought the 67 quart version, and I put in a full 40 pound bag of Kirkland Healthy Weight dog food in it, and about 4 pounds of what was left in a Science Diet bag of dog food (changing my dog's food). With about 44 pounds of dog food in it, there was about 3 1/2 inches of space left at the top. So, I'd say 50 pounds of dog kibble would fit, just about exactly, in the 67 quart bin. The kibble I put in it is a smaller size kibble, too.

Yes, the kibble size is small. I think it would be fine for a small breed dog. It's about 3/8 of an inch in size.

I never measured. It would depend on the size if the kibble I suppose. It kept my small dog busy for about an hour.

Probably. I firmly believe in NOT putting the feeding dish on the floor but raising it to the dog's chest level. My dog us a large breed dog so all I can suggest to you is buy one, try it and if it is not right for your dog, return it.

Yes I'm sure you probably could, i poured a 30lb bag of dog food into mine and there was still room for another pound or 2. It's skinnier and more upright like the shape of a bag of dog food so I'm sure you can make it fit.What's wrong with dumping the food into the container?

It could work with a wet/dry mixture. My dog has to get his tongue down in the grooves to get his dry kibble anyway. You might have to pack it in though, rather than drop it on top.

Yes, it would be way too small. Check out the Neater Feeder. They come in medium and large sizes - more suitable for your dog, I believe.

It's pretty sturdy but I could see it cracking. Also, depending on the threat size it may not be a good fit. The opening is ideal for small to medium size kibble.

No. All parts are a hard plastic and so far seem to be very durable. The Busy Buddy screws apart in two places, allowing kibbles/treats (I mix about 1:10 treats:kibbles) to be put in it. It can hold a lot! And you can adjust how easily the pieces come out. This is one of Peter's favorite food/treat dispensing toys.

I'm not sure if you're looking for size of the kibble (small) or if it's good for small breeds. My toy poodle gobbles them down with no problem and his poop comes out not soft and not too hard Which is a good thing. I have no complaints. His seizures have also stopped

The inside diameter on the medium bowl is about 6 1/2 ' the outside is 7 1/2". We feed our black lab 2 cups of food and it holds nicely. Originally bought it with the stand but the bowl was too small and fell through. Returned the stand and used with an old one that we had. We do not have the "wet" problem that the other comment mentions.

It's about the size of a tennis ball. I would say it's a good size for a medium dog. :)

You might be able to fit a tiny amount of food, but the zipper is pretty tight when you zip it up empty. I would say you would want to wait so your pup can get a full serving.

I think a large dog can easily get it opened and then chew on the parts. This really is not a toy for a large dog. I am going to give mine away to someone with a small/medium size dog.

I would say that the kibble size is approximate if not slightly larger than the eraser head of a pencil. It was great for our Akita's when they were puppies, but we switched them to kibble that was slightly larger now that they are older.

I think you'd be better off with the medium, unless the kibble size is extremely small. I used the small when my dog ate kibble the size of a pea. You can also cut the inside prongs (there are 3-4) and to let the food out a little faster. Hope that helps.
