Kijen Iqube Dog toy from Bethel, PA
Our King Shepherd is high energy and very intelligent, so easily bored. She quickly figured out how to get the balls out but LOVES the toy. Takes the balls out one by one plays with each one by herself and sometimes solicits interactive play with us. We sometimes pack the cube with as many toys as possible and stuff in a couple of treats. Would definitely recommend this for entertainment value.

He figured it out in about five minutes, but his is still completely enthralled. We've had it for a little over three months and not one piece is ripped. My dog is a power chewer too. Great toy!

Our 4 month old labradoodle loves playing with this toy. She enjoys getting the balls out of the box as well as chasing the freed balls around the house. More recently she has taken to just chewing on the "X" cut in the sides, but as long as it makes her happy...Would definitely recommend this toy for light to medium chewers.

My dog figured this toy out in seconds - But the surprising part is she is totally enamored with the bright colored, soft, plush squeaker balls!! She is more than happy to retrieve them from within the box, but she adores playing with the squeaker balls themselves! It comes with four and the cool thing about them is that they are soft, much easier for throwing than the small tennis balls she loves! I even hit a picture frame by mistake and no problems, it just bounced right off. Living in a second floor apartment make these excellent for playing fetch indoors. She brings the balls on the couch and to bed with her, she sleeps with her head right on it. This toy is amazing and I recommend it to anyone whose dog likes to chase, fetch and play with balls. Super fast delivery as well.

My Aussie and Blue Heeler figured it out quickly. They love having the balls put back in. However, they have had more fun with the balls than the cube. After destroying the balls, I put tennis balls in the cube and its still just as much fun for them. Great for an anxiety dog when you're leaving to keep them busy.

We ordered the large size for our rescued 17 lb. Westie. He's on medication for obsessive behaviors; spinning, circling, checking, etc. He loved this toy the minute we showed him the squeeky balls. He "got it" immediately and fills his free time playing with it. Treats inside when he's particularly overactive help us- humans and canine- keep our sanity. We're totally amazed.

I bought this at Christmas for our dogs. We have one lab mix and two yorkies (all rescues - please don't buy from pet shop- every single dog there comes from a puppy mill no matter what they tell you. The lab and one of the yorkies figured out the toy in less than 15 minutes. They bring it to me when it's empty so I can fill it up again.

My rescue Golden loves any type of ball, but will destroy a stuffed toy in seconds. He loves his I-Qube, though, and hasn't destroyed it even after two years. He loves to pull the balls out of the cube, and he'll play with them, but doesn't rip them apart like he does other plush toys. Thanks for making a toy that keeps my dog thinking, not ripping!

The "+" signs in the square sides are perfect for a dog to pull on and rip the cube apart with no problem. Once she got the balls out, she set out to take the cube apart. I'm thinking these hide-and-seek toys teach the dog the wrong thing--I don't want to have her tearing everything apart in the house wondering what's inside!

My 17-pound mini-doodle loves this toy! He favors soft toys but usually rips them apart when we're not watching. He's had this for a year and plays with the pieces individually and together. He squeaks the balls until you are ready to tear your ears off, he chews at the openings of the sqaure, he carts the sqaure around like a prize, and he drops any part of it at your feet to play fetch. Everytime he finds it in the house it's like a new friend. I am ordering another one as a back up and will try to reinforce the openings before I give it to him, but this is a GREAT toy for sustained interest.

My two Golden puppies seven and twelve months LOVE this toy. However, they totally destroyed the cube within a couple of days and the balls shortly after. I purchased a second I-Qube and reinforced the openings before giving to them. That one has lasted over a month with occasional restitching of the extra heavy material I added. If it were made of sturdier material, especially around the openings, Id give it five stars in every category.

My working German Shepherd puppy, now 6 mo., loves this toy and has had it since 10 wks. She's extremely rough on larger toys, but loves these balls, especially loving to squeak them and tease our 2 yr. old GSD. I've even machine-washed Qube and balls. I'm buying several more Jumbo I-Qubes for future pups.

My dachshund just loves the balls. He treats the ball as his security blanket - it goes wherever he goes. After wear and tear lasts a good year, replacements are much needed.

My dog, a lover of chewing and ripping fabric toys, managed to chew the corners off of the cube during the brief moment I wasnt paying attention. The cube is made of soft velour, and isnt made to withstand chewing. But as I wanted to stimulate my dogs seeking abilities, I took the risk. Happily though, once I got her to pay attention to the balls, she chose not to rip those apart, and just squeaks them. This is the first fabric ball she has been able to refrain from destroying, so Im happy. The cube itself sits neglected though. The price was great, the jumbo was at least 3-4 dollars less than anywhere else.

From the time I bought Baxter home, hes loved this toy. Just taking it out of the toy bin makes him so excited. I hide all sort so things in the box in addition to the squeaky balls that come with it: treats, tennis balls, chew toys, etc. Even if I didnt put new things inside, Baxter would still love it.
The box itself is very durable Baxter has chewed the openings a lot, but the balls arent so much I have to sew a few closed. Still, its a GREAT interactive toy!

My 8 month old lab LOVES this toy. She usually pulls the stuffing out of toys within a day, but not these balls. The balls are foam filled with a squeaker, but she loves to roll them around and get them out of the cube. This activity keeps her busy so she doesnt tear them open.

I was very excited about a toy that would keep my Border Collie entertained. Unfortunately, thats not the case. My dog fished out the balls in no time flat, then sat down and looked at me like, Now what The biggest reason I rated this toy so low, however, was because I had to throw the toy away in less than 10 days because the openings ripped out and exposed the stiff material inside the felt & my dog tore pieces of it out. He is not a typically destructive chewer, either, he was just trying to get his teeth on the balls to pull them out of the cube. I did keep the balls, though, and he does play with those some - they are great for throwing in the house, but not worth the cost of the cube.

I have a 9 month golden retriever, she liked it but ripped apart the cube. The balls are all that is left which she loves to have tossed around to catch.

My 6 mo old lab/retriever LOVES when she gets this toy. She's pretty picky too. She does get bored with it after about 15 minutes, but loves the squeaky balls inside and pulling them out of the cube. So after she's done with it, I am sure to hide it again until the next day, when I pull it out and give her another 15 minutes of fun squeaking!

This is an excellent interactive toy for you and your dog. My dog loves to play with the whole toy as well as the balls by themselves.

I bought the 6" for my Lab...its a little small for his muzzle to get in the Qube. He manages to get one out and prances and squeaks it all over the house. He like to carry the Qube with the balls inside...squeaking all the way.

My 2yr old Golden Retriever loves this thing. It just arrived a few hours ago. When I gave it to her she didnt know what to do with it at first but now she's all over it. So far the I-Qube survived the past few hours with her which is alot longer then her other toys. I think she's more worried about getting the toys out of it then destroying it. I think it's worth the money.

This is my Golden's favorite toy. He loves to run through the house squeaking the balls. He never gets tired of it.

This is a GREAT toy, especially if you have a lab or other inquisitive chewer/shredder in your home. Our dogs routinely shred anything fluffy and squeaky EXCEPT THIS! Because they can pull the balls out without destroying the shell, our dogs have the fun of pulling out the "squeakers" over and over. We put the balls back in and the game starts all over again. We never imagined the toy would survive five minutes and we have had it for five months. We have a 70 lb and a 35 lb dog; the 6" size worked for us. Buying a backup in case this gets discontinued!

My dog as a pup made short work of the I-cube in under 60 seconds. All the balls were out & she seemed to ask, "What's next?". I don't know if it's a lack of shape as with other interactives or what the problem was but, it didn't seem to hold her interest. She still does play with it from time to time, though.

I am continually pleased with the fact that this is one of the few toys that my dog does not get bored with.
Even after the balls from the toy are back inside the cube, there is room left over for you to stuff in a few more toys you have laying around (thus making the game a little more challenging).
The only thing I wish for are replacement squeaky balls for the cube. My dog is pretty hard on his toys, and a month worth of aggressive playing has been the demise of two of the balls thusfar.

Our dog loves her IQ cube! It's the only toy she has that she's not bored with after a few minutes. The balls are the perfect size for squeaking and she has a great time taking them out of the cube. It seems to make her happy to figure out this doggie puzzle. The holiday shaped ones are great too.
