"This toy is super cute and the dogs loved playing with it. However, it was torn up within minutes so I had to take it away. Typically KONG toys last a little longer at my house."

Bottom Line

The KONG Holiday Ballistic Big Ears Bear Dog Toy is a charming pet toy that falls short in terms of durability. If you have a dog with moderate to aggressive play behavior, this toy might not hold up. For lighter use or occasional fun, it's decent but not a long-term solution. Look for alternatives if durability is a key factor.
