KONG Extreme vs West Paw Zogoflex Toppl Treat Dispensing Dog Chew Toy
Kong-Style Toys + Puzzle Toys 10 Features Compared
KONG Extreme
by KONG
Price $8.99-$26.99
Rating ★★★★★ 4.7/5 (1,800 reviews)
Category Kong-Style Toys
Best For Power chewers and dogs that have already destroyed standard red KONG toys.
KONG Extreme uses the brand’s black rubber formula, its toughest standard option for power chewers. It keeps the same hollow, stuffable design and unpredictable bounce as the Classic, allowing dogs to chew, chase, and work for treats or frozen fillings with longer-lasting durability.
West Paw Zogoflex Toppl Treat Dispensing Dog Chew Toy
by West Paw
Price $25-$30
Rating ★★★★★ 4.5/5 (448 reviews)
Category Puzzle Toys
Best For Ideal for food-motivated dogs who enjoy licking and foraging and are moderate chewers rather than extreme power chewers.
The Toppl is a treat-dispensing puzzle bowl made from soft yet durable Zogoflex material. Dogs work to lick, nudge, paw, or twist out wet food, kibble, or treats held in place by interior teeth, and the toy can also be frozen to extend playtime. Its open bowl shape makes it easy to fill and clean, and interlocking size combinations can increase the challenge.
