Ok...I wasn't sure, because there's no other purpose of the site, but to sell this toy.
Here it is...

Why I like this toy.
1. It is indestructible!
2. They can see the treats inside (completely clear).
3. They can smell them.
4. They can hear them.
5. Comes in a bunch of different sizes. You are supposed to get the ball that will be to big to fit in there mouth. That way it doesn't get hung up.
6. Depending on the treat, it is really challenging.
I have bought similar ones before and when my Rotts can't get the treat out, they just rip it a part. It is sooo nice to see them struggle, and exhaust themselves.
I have been using the curvy bacon strip things. I feed them through the whole (you have to turn them a whole bunch of different directions to get them in), and the dogs fight so hard to get them out. I have been blown away.
I will recommend this to all of my clients whose dogs have behavior problems or can destroy most toys.
To train my dogs on it I started with tiny pieces of freeze dried liver. They came shooting out for like 20 minutes. I also put 3 or 4 pieces in that would not come out. My dogs have tried everything to get those last pieces of liver out. As soon as they come outof there cages they run straight for the ball. They knock it around until they pass out.
Anyway, check it out if you have a rough-n-tumble dog.
