Boredom Relief / Mental Exercise. The media could not be loaded. So many are complaining that the bones got chewed up. That’s because the dog has to be taught that the bone isn’t the prize, the item held within is. They don’t reason like we do and anything to a dog is a chewable item. I made the same mistake with my 8-yr old hyper-but-uber-smart Spitz / Husky mix. When he was a puppy I didn’t know even a portion of what I do now and he tore up a great number of toys as a result.I’m starting fresh with a new pound puppy. My 10-month old took off with the bones initially and tried to chew them. I removed them from her and redirected her to the real treasure. After the 2nd round of training she started ignoring the bones and going for the real treat. She now takes her meals in this or her Kong Wobbler. I still have to watch because as I was typing this she finished the game and got bored waiting for me so proceeded to chew up one of the bones.The 8-yr old owned this in no time. His first time with it he put his paw on the center to hold it in place, then picked up the bones, tossed them to the side and reaped his rewards. He was considerably more slobbery than the girl, so do be aware that these things can get slimed. I’m using other toys with him due to the goo factor, and to offer him more of a challenge since this was far too easy for him.This has been a great relief for boredom for the 10-month old. She cracked her foot on our patio when the two dogs were running full speed ahead in the yard, resulting in a toe fracture. I am to keep this puppy on limited activity for 4 – 6 weeks so I’m learning all sorts of new tricks to keep her mind active to make up for the lack of physical exertion. Now that she’s able to put weight on the foot this toy, the Kong Wobbler, and a plush toy with holes to pull smaller plushes from are helping me do just that.Pros:Good introduction to puzzle toysDurable But requires training to prevent dogs from chewing the pieces upLightweightEasy to set upCons:Noisy if your dog manhandles itMoves all over the floorSlobber can make the pieces difficult to handle (or just gross)Takes a little time to set upSupervision neededVideo is the boy on his 3rd attempt. He has a listening problem – he can’t hear “sit” when he doesn’t want to. 😀 I have to send him to the crate because he has resource guarding issues I’ve never been successful at training out of him so to keep things civil I send him away from the game before I refill. If that one piece hadn’t escaped, breaking his concentration, he would have finished up pretty darn quick. The girl is less elegant in her execution.
Our 5-month labrador is super Happy after he got to play with this. He was done quite fast but his behavior to play and how learned was impressive.
Excellent dog & cat toy. My dog was a rescue from a bad situation & has trust issues. I’ve had her over 6 months & she’s still afraid to go to the park or even walk around the neighborhood. She’s low energy & gets bored easily. We bought this toy as one of her therapy tools. It’s challenging for her (not for my cat though). I put a feline greenie treat in each pocket & my dog was able to master this toy, but took awhile. She’s never had to do mental work before so this was a big achievement once she learned you must return the longer white pieces back into place to get to the orange center pieces. The greenies are only 2 calories each so my dog could play this over & over again. So many pros (it’s durable & challenging). The only cons is that the pockets aren’t deep so must be a flat, small treat like kitty greenies or the pieces won’t slide. The 1st photo is her looking sad & frustrated (again she’s never been exposed to learning spatial reasoning stuff). [Sorry, pics are reversed.] We’ve been working on anxiety, trust, confidence & her fear issues. The 2nd photo she mastered the toy & she was rewarded with an Ol’ Roy dog bone. Very happy she loves it & my cat does too. Easier for my cat bc she has more dexterity using her feet. Great price too. 🥰
One dog loves it! Pretty easy to rinse clean, a bit hard to separate the layers imho. Sturdy, fun. I rinse it clean without taking it apart, using the wide spray on the kitchen sink, because I find it difficult to take apart and put back together without making a mess. The fastener clip is small and hard to manipulate. However it rinses off pretty easily, you just have to spin each layer. (Use the gentle or wide spray to avoid water going everywhere. It easily holds about one 13oz can of dogfood. It takes about half a can to fill it enough to make it worth the dog’s time imho. My 23lb corgi mix loves it. She can focuses on getting every lick out of every layer, and keeps her busy a while. It has helped her tremendously slow down on her meals and also provides enrichment and entertainment. 13 lb chihuahua mix is less thorough, he grabs what he can easily get, and cries for a refill! 10lb rescue chihuahua mix did not understand it at all and is much more toy motivated than food motivated, but he is a picky eater and did not need slowing down. So, for the purpose intended, slow down my vacuum-corgi mix dog, it’s worked fantastic, and she also enjoys playing with it. Good for a dog who likes a challenge, or eats way too fast. I love that it doesn’t tip over, she hasn’t flipped it over yet with daily use. I’ve used it with both small dry kibble and wet food, works fine with both. It’s easy to smear canned food onto it even if you don’t take the layers apart. Doesn’t need to be perfect, she’s happy, I’m happy
Very entertaining and engaging for pups. This puzzle was the best buy for all 3 of my dogs! They all have their own personalities and I didn’t know how they would react but seems like it’s a win in my book. There’s several easily filled slots to put different treats in to keep the pups engaged and mentally stimulated. I started them on the 2nd puzzle cause i know they can be crafty and really smart. Im glad they did cause within two days they had it cracked. Seems to be good quality and says it is dishwasher safe. I have only hand washed it though so unsure of the durability in the dishwasher. One thing to watch out for is if your dog is a chewer. Mine usually are not but if they can’t get the treat out they will resort to chewing at the slides to force it open. Usually if I just help them along it solves the problem. It was worth the price and I’m definitely going to get the next puzzle up.
great puzzle, beware of the open holes though. My girl is too smart for her own good but this was a good challenge for her. She loves it. The only thing is she got frustrated and jumped on it, and her claw got stuck in one of the holes and it broke her nail!!! Scared the crap out of me. Thankfully she didn’t bleed. She’s very tiny so she’s got delicate claws. Just beware when supervising that’s a possibility.
Entertaining and Fun. The feeder itself has great stability and performance. I have a 13 lb dog full grown chihuahua terrier mix and he love it when I pull this feeder out. I have couple other feeder and he been able to figure it out pretty quick. This feeder is light weight, quiet , and gave my dog the challenge he was looking for and he can keep at it for hours. Few things I wish it was different is if the square pieces can be taken apart for cleaning, it would make it easier to clean the holes, It’s definitely something that need to be clean asap after use or else it can be tedious work when all the bits get dry and stuck in there. Also the material is “soft” if your dog Is a aggressive chewers I would not recommend this feeder. My dog chew the side of it and it made the side a bit uneven and the green slider will get caught and become stuck. But overall is a great design for all size of dogs.
Fun dog puzzle – a little shallow, and sliding rectangles can get stuck a little. This is a fun dog puzzle. I have an 80 lb dog, and he tends to try to brute force puzzles and this has held up ok (as long as i monitor from him over chewing the plastic).The slots are a little shallow, so i’ve had to tear treats so it’ll fit for things to slide.All the rectangles can be taken out to make some sliding easier (if it’s not perfectly aligned, it doesn’t move as smoothly). This allows for ease of cleaning.
Outward Hound never fails. I have never disliked an Outward Hound product! Whenever I see them on sale, I snag as many as possible!! I recently rescued a 1 year old Belgian Malinois from a severe dog hoarding, abuse and neglect situation and I needed to purchase a few items for her to feel comfortable in her new home including a couple of slow feeders to provide enrichment throughout the day to help her decompress! This is one of the few Outward Hound products I hadn’t purchased yet! This slow feeder is great for pups that are high energy to help satisfy their minds and rest easy. There are so many possibilities for making it fun! I personally enjoy filling with their kibble (and sometimes extras like Plain Greek Yogurt, Blueberries, Supplements, etc.) and water to freeze so it lasts longer. It’s great to set down for them as their breakfast to start the day or dinner to settle down in the evening! You can add liquids and solids which makes it easy to use for whatever you choose to put in it! I never doubt the durability of Outward Hound products. They are made to last for our canine companions! Not to mention it is so much cheaper on Amazon, they have it priced at over $30 at some pet stores!!!
Very Entertaining. The media could not be loaded. My lab got so mad with this thing! I now have 3 puzzle toys for my dogs so they each can be working on one at the same time. They’re pretty smart, and figured out the first two rather quickly. So I bought this one to give them more of a challenge. My younger dog was at it for awhile and didn’t end up figuring the center part or the slides out. My lab just got frustrated and lost interest. She went for the younger dogs puzzle and I had to keep returning her attention to her board. She ended up pawing at the outer pieces and knocked one off. NP. I was able to pop it back into place. When she was done, she still had treats hidden inside. NBD. We’ll work on it. At least it served it’s purpose and got her engaged. It also kept me entertained! Definitely work up into making it more challenging for your pup. Even if they advance through lower level puzzles pretty quickly like mine do.One thing I will say about this one: I do wish that the boarder compartments were different. Some of them move across multiple squares. As the dogs are moving things around, the treats tend to get stuck in spots on the board where they can’t be fished back out. When I went to set up the board for my lab, I realized there were some cranberries that had gotten stuck in one spot that made them difficult to remove. Tilting didn’t work and I couldn’t grab them with my fingers, either. Ended up grabbing them out with a pair of kitchen shears lol.
Great Puzzle for Busy Puppies. My puppy loves this puzzle. It took her a bit to figure out how to open some of the doors, which was fantastic for keeping her entertained. I put dog-safe foods in each of the openings and she goes crazy for it. She is an aggressive chewer and hasn’t destroyed it yet so it holds up well. There’s nothing to assemble, just put treats in it and watch them go. It’s a good value for the money.
Pup has loved it. Robust enough that English bulldog pup hasn’t destroyed it after 4 months or so. She uses it a lot and it definitely gives her some fun. Need a new one since she can blast through this in a few seconds at this point. Used for treats and fun not food.
My dog really loves this one. My standard poodle has more fun with puzzle because it’s more difficult. It takes a little bit longer so he has more fun. He still figured it out the first time without help, but it was a challenge. This is a great toy! Use cheerios, small pellet treats, or dried cranberries. It’s a great value for the money, there was no assembly required. It holds up fine against my dog chewing on it, and the size is perfect.
Huge hit. I have two mini aussies. One is about 3 and the other 4months. Both sat and played with this for a while. The older figured it out faster than the puppy, but both enjoyed this and was very excited to find little hidden treasures (food and treats). This product does move around a good bit for older dogs, but very sustainable so far. Part of the fun was watching one dog take it from the other. My children and I loved watching both Aussies having fun and figuring things out. Great value, worth buying!!
Great quality and perfect for my senior dog. I was sad to discover my dog is a Level 0 (my term for lick mats) to a Level 1. No more. Poor baby walks away from Levels 2+ even with bacon inside. So this Level 1 toy is perfect. I freeze all kinds of things inside so it takes her longer to lick clean. Though she has totally aced how to lift the pieces, it keeps her well occupied. For a very well-behaved senior dog, she is ok with multiple short-duration puzzles.
Fun but definitely stage 1. Aussie puppy loves it, but she mastered the outer, easier puzzles day one(of course). The inner puzzles took her a little longer bc she had to figure out how to position the outer ones to free the treats in the inner ones. She made quick work of that too, though. Couple uses.Even though she mastered it very quickly, she still loves it. Gets excited whenever I pull it out and it does keep her little brain happy and busy for a few whenever she’s in “boredom = raptor” mode.My older, very smart Labbie also loves it (Ordered 2) and she’s not too big to operate it. She’s just not as excited abt it as Aussie is.Definitely need to graduate to a tougher puzzle, but I’ll still switch it up and use this one.I use puppy food or finely diced carrots as the treat, btw. Nothing fancy needed. No need for unhealthy commercial treats.
Great product. My 2 year old MGD loves her new treat dispenser!! It keeps her entertained for awhile getting the treats or her kibble out to eat…if you have a fur baby he/she will love this treat dispenser…Nicely designed and easy to wash and put back together…I have arthritis and if I can do it anyone can…Hope everyone has a pleasant day…
Both of my dogs love it. Easy to use. Dogs love it. Just need to be sure to supervise as the dogs try to pull it apart. Still, it is tough and fun to use.
Awesome Treat Puzzle. We have 2 small dogs and this is a great puzzle for them! This is NOT a beginner puzzle. Bought these to try to give our dogs, who had mastered multiple other treat puzzles, more of a challenge. The lid and the 2 round sliders are easy and a great way to get the dogs engaged with success quickly. I expected the lever to be tricky since I’d never seen a puzzle with that before but both dogs figured it out pretty quickly. The hard park is all of the connected sliders. Both of our dogs, who use different combos of nose, feet, and tongue to do puzzles, both struggle with it but can do it. With more practice they’ll get the hang of it, but in the meantime I love that they finally have a challenge!
Great puzzle. Our puppy is 5 month and very energetic. She is a Pom. She was very interested when we loaded the puzzle with treats. It keeps her busy for a few minutes. Sometimes she does not get all the treats but after a while she goes back to get the rest of them. She does love this puzzle and every time we grab to put some treats she gets super excited! Very easy to clean, I wash by hand every day. I use multiple times a day, with really small treats (pieces).
Stands up to “Pupasaurus Rex”. My Corgi blew through this puzzle in about 2 minutes but that’s pretty good. She mostly uses “brute force” to get the treats. She paws, pummels, and chews her way to the treats. It’s not very elegant or thoughtful but it does keep her busy and she loves it.I am impressed with how well the toy has held up! Other puzzle toys have been chewed to bits relatively quickly but not this one, there’s not a mark on it.I like that all the moving bits are not removable, this is good because the white “bone” pieces are quite small. I think this might not be for a dog who could pry them off, could be a choking hazard. However, my pup is pretty good at chewing up almost anything (antlers, bones, plastic, rocks…) and she has not torn them off.The “bones” are on pretty tight and they are attached with something stretchy so you can lift and turn them to lock and unlock the drawers. They were kinda hard for me to lift up and lock. There’s no gap or purchase to get them up but I have pretty strong fingernails so I was able to do it. I think a butter knife used as leverage might be wise. Pulling on the bones themselves was a no go because they were too slippery. I think the drawers are removable but my pup did not get them out and it’s no big deal if she did.It is dishwasher safe and both myself and pup are happy with the purchase.
Great toy. Great toy! Keeps pup entertained
Works like a charm. The puzzle is a great tool for helping to keep the dog busy and also helps to evaluate the dogs drive to work out challenging tasks like searching. It is very practical.
Great puzzle. This is a wonderful puzzle that keeps my Aussiedoodle preoccupied for at least 30-45 mins. trying to get his treats out of each section. I like that there is different difficulty levels, but my boy has no patience and chooses to try and break it, flipping it over and tossing it through the house when it comes to the cornered slides since it’s a little more complex. He tore this up in a month and bits of plastic is now chipping leaving flakes on his furry chin. I’m repurchasing because he loves it so much and whimpers to let us know when it’s play time. It’s durable and well made it’s just that my boy gets super aggressive and impatient at play just trying to get at his peanut butter.
Perfect Puzzle to Keep My Dog Engaged and Happy. This dog treat puzzle is amazing! My pup absolutely loves it and it keeps him occupied for quite a while. It’s sturdy, well-made, and the challenge is just right—he has to think but doesn’t get frustrated. I also love that it doubles as a slow feeder, helping him eat more slowly and avoid bloating. If you have a smart dog who needs mental stimulation, this puzzle is a must-have! Highly recommend for keeping your furry friend entertained and out of trouble.
At full price would be 3 stars. Bought this on prime day as it was very affordable. The overall structure of the product is solid with some weight. The biggest let down is i thought the fins could be easily blocked by the sliding tubes. You can use your slightest pinky movement to move both the fin and tube out of the way in one shot. Its too easy and and the parts have too much slack, so a dog can ‘accidently’ move things around without the dog making a conscious effort of what it did to achieve the result. Might as well just hide a treat under leaves .
Great toy and tips for using. This is one of our very favorite and most useful toys. The ball is very well made of durable rubber (or whatever it is that feels like good rubber these days and the rubber extends a little bit over the edge of the treat wells so that the dog can’t chew the plastic wells out. The squirrels are, of course, fabric and we know what happens with that. That said, they too are well made. with “painted” on faces, no bulging eyes to chew out of them. I ordered 6 additional squirrels shortly after getting the toy for two reasons: 1) I’m lazy (and old) and didn’t want to have to go squirrel searching all the time and 2) I wanted to be sure I had extras in case they became unavailable in the future. I have something similar to a toy hammock or net bag hanging on a wall where I deposit the squirrels as I come upon them. She only gets to play with them in conjunction with the ball (or if she finds a missing one before I do).Initially it did not look to me as though this toy would hold enough food to actually feed her from. It does. It holds about a cup and a half, maybe a little more, if you only put the squirrel head half way in each well. My Archie is about 40 pounds and is not what is considered an aggressive chewer though she has chewed a number of toys to their death. This one still looks like new as do all the squirrels (which I toss in the wash, not sure if that is recommended.) This would work as a slow feeder but that’s not why I got it. My girl isn’t always hungry when we feed the little dogs and cats. She’s more of a grazer. I would free-feed her if I didn’t have the others. This toy gives me a way to have food out for her when she wants it, the little dogs know it’s not theirs and the cats aren’t interested in working at it. (One cat figured out the gum ball machine toy before any of the dogs did and by the time they did the cat was puking. That toy went into storage)First Use: Archie did not intuitively know how to get the squirrels out at first and lost interest before she succeeded. Maybe she would have been smarter if I waited until she was starving but I don’t like doing that. What I did was fill the wells about half way and stuck the squirrel heads in just far enough that they wouldn’t fall out as I put it down. When I put it down and gave it a little roll, with her paying attention, a squirrel did come out and let the kibble out too which she ate up immediately and started to catch on. I put the squirrels barely in for a few days until she really got the hang of it, which she did. Interesting note: my girl does know the command for tug or pull but she could not relate it to this ball and squirrel thing so we had to go the other route.This is a toy I don’t think you’ll regret buying. I’m tempted to order a back-up one and keep it in our RV.
Level 1 is good. This treat puzzle is a fantastic way to keep my dog entertained and mentally stimulated! The design is clever, with lots of compartments that make my pup work for his treats. It’s the perfect level of challenge—not too hard, but it does keep him occupied for a while. The build quality is good, though I wish it was a bit more durable for more aggressive chewers. The sliding pieces are easy for him to move around, and he really seems to enjoy it. Overall, a great enrichment toy, and I’d recommend it to dog owners looking for a fun, interactive challenge!
Great. I purchased the Outward Hound Nina Ottosson Dog Tornado Puzzle for my dog, and it’s been an absolute hit! This interactive treat puzzle has not only entertained him for hours, but it also provides mental stimulation, which is essential for his overall well-being. The intermediate difficulty level is perfect—challenging enough to keep him engaged, but not so difficult that he becomes frustrated. I love that I can hide treats in the compartments and watch him figure out how to rotate the sections to get to them. It’s a great way to keep him busy and mentally sharp, and I’ve noticed a positive change in his behavior. The puzzle is durable and easy to clean, making it a perfect addition to our daily routine. If you have a dog that enjoys problem-solving, I highly recommend this puzzle for hours of fun and enrichment.
Great active toy. The media could not be loaded. My dog does not normally enjoy toys but as a highly food motivated creature, she loves this toy. I dump some training treats inside and it keeps her occupied for half an hour (before she gets frustrated and I have to help her). I had to deduct 1 star because the rubber tabs do tend to get stuck closed and past the window where treats dispense (see picture). Once the rubber tab is stuck there’s no way for treats to get out unless you unscrew the lids and fix the rubber inserts. But it’s still a great toy and very durable. My dog is a heavy chewer and it’s doing just fine. Great price for what you get.
It’s good. Pros:Keeps my dog busy for a bit.Makes him actually work for his treats.Cons:I had to tape down the little orange lock bits because when he would push the puzzle it would shift them.His brain doesn’t always work so well (or maybe it does) because he figured out if he scratches at it he can pull some of the pieces off.
Could be better. My dog likes to lick the openings to get the treats rather than roll the toy around to release them, meaning that the flaws in the design became evident quite early on. But first, the pros: the entire thing dismantles for easy cleaning. LOVE this feature. Without it, I would have given a much lower star rating.However, the issue is that the yellow spiral things on either end are too flexible and bend inwards after a couple washes (by hand) and when my dog chews and licks the area, it bends and warps. This causes the treats to get stuck up there and not release nor be available for my dog to get out in his silly way.I’m discontinuing this toy in my house because my dog chews too much on the plastic. But also because the treat dispenser system is flawed just enough to make it a hassle to pull out and to then clean. Not worth it.
Engaging and Versatile Puzzle Toy for All Dogs. I recently purchased the Interactive Dog Treat Puzzle Toy for my two dogs, and it’s been a fantastic addition to their playtime routine. Suitable for dogs of all sizes, this toy has provided both my small and large dogs with engaging mental stimulation.Initially, there was a bit of a learning curve as they figured out how to access the hidden treats. However, once they got the hang of it, the toy became a favorite. It keeps them occupied for over 30 minutes, making it an excellent tool for slowing down their eating habits and providing enrichment.The squeak design adds an extra layer of excitement, capturing their attention and encouraging interactive play. They enjoyed it so much that I ended up purchasing a second one to keep both dogs entertained simultaneously.Overall, I highly recommend this puzzle toy for any dog owner looking to provide their pets with a fun and stimulating activity. It’s durable, engaging, and suitable for dogs of all sizes.
Great starter puzzle and slow feeder. The media could not be loaded. Great product for new puppy parents! As a puppy owner, you will not regret buying this item and some of the bulges offered along with it. It is a great way to keep your puppy entertained, stimulate learning and keep them from chewing on unwanted items. The material is durable, and overall fits a fair amount of food – roughly 1/2 cup of a cup of dry food. If you’re a smaller breed owner this is the EXACTLY or close to a serving size for your pup.
Fantastic! Different levels of difficulty keeps her busy. The media could not be loaded. Puppy approved! 🐾💕 She loves it. We are only 1-2 weeks into use and she has relatively mastered the outer track and is working on the inner. She likes to double check her progress sometimes which is great extending interactivity time. The inner circle will be much harder to master. So glad it has both levels to grow with the dog’s skill. Strong materials. Cute colors- very Mystery Mobile vibes.
Sturdy, time-consuming for a busy dog. Love it. My pit bull loves this. It’s challenging but she won’t quit until she gets every treat. It keeps her busy longer than her other toys. It’s also more sturdy since she hasn’t broken it yet.
Great Company, Great Toys. I don’t usually write reviews, but I do like this company and its products a lot. I have been purchasing dog puzzles since my dog was a few months old. But of all the companies I’ve purchased from, I find Outward Hound to be the best made and challenging for my dog. I have a Yorkiepoo who is currently three years old. Because this is a special food toy, I don’t leave it out for him to get at all the time; otherwise, he would obviously chew on the puzzle and ruin it. I noticed in other reviews, this is a problem, but like I said, don’t leave it out. I don’t keep it in his toy box; that is for toys he could play with all day long. You should check out the Youtube video: Dog Twister Tips & Tricks by Nina Ottosson- good ideas.
Challenging and fun. My dog loves this. He has been doing a much simpler treat puzzle and I wanted to see if he could do a variety of tasks. He got it all the very first time but it still takes him a while to complete. It is a bit noisy as he pushes it around and digs at all of the slides and boxes. It’s good quality because he has chewed it and drug it all over the house. Would recommend and buy again.
My 11-Year-Old Maltipoo Loves This Puzzle. I got this puzzle for my 11-year-old Maltipoo (10 lbs), and she absolutely loves it! She had never done anything like this before, but she took to it right away and has the best time figuring it out. She enjoys it so much that I now use it to feed her breakfast and dinner, making mealtimes more engaging and exciting for her.The puzzle is well-made, easy for small dogs to maneuver, and provides the perfect level of challenge without being frustrating. It’s been a great way to keep her mentally stimulated, and I love watching her enthusiasm every time she plays with it. Highly recommend this for any dog owner looking to add some fun and enrichment to their pup’s routine!
fun and great value. If you have a puppy in need of mental stimulation or just to know they are not chewing on something they shouldn’t be – this is perfect. My 8-month-old pitt mix loves this. What’s even better about this I don’t have to fill all of the treat spots to keep him interested in “finding” the treats. Dishwasher safe, easy to use and so far he only pushes the buttons around to look for snacks.
Great dog brain game. I’m not great at sizing things online before buying. These were bigger than I had expected, but it’s just because I didn’t read the description. When I got them, I filled them for both of our dogs and gave one to each of them in separate areas. The first day they both didn’t seem interested at all. I actually started a return on them. The next day I decided to try them again before packaging them up, and I’m glad I did. Both dogs seemed to love these once they realized treats were falling out of it when they moved it. I’d say if your dog doesn’t like it at first to give it another try or two. These ended up being a favorite for both of our dogs! They are very easy to clean and fill as well! They keep our dogs occupied for about a half hour.
Great dog puzzle for beginners. My 2 year old dog loves this puzzle. It takes him approximately less than 10 minutes to complete it. The design and difficulty level is for beginners. The quality is great, and it has a cute squeak toy in the center. The puzzle is very light in weight. Only downside it’s not easy to clean and sanitize.
Great game to stimulate the mind. Our big guy is 80 lbs and whip smart. He loves playing with this puzzle and has learned to rotate the inner pieces to allow the outer ones to push upward to reveal more treats. This puzzle works for all dogs from Beagle to Rhodesian Ridgeback!
Not worth the money if your dog is a chewer. Love the challenge this provides my small dog, but it’s not durable. After just 2 uses she had chewed the drawers so the slider for the second layer no longer works. Expensive for just a few uses.
Favorite toy. My 8-pound, 18 year old yorkie-poo loves this. Three months ago I adopted this senior cutie and I’m still trying to figure out what he likes. He ignores most toys. I tried easy food puzzles and snuffle mats. He can get the treats in seconds and then he’s back to begging. This rolling toy is the best! It takes him about 20-30 minutes. He’s tired when he’s done. He’s very excited when I go to fill it. Best toy yet!
Great for puzzle beginners. This is a great puzzle for beginners. Our puppy figured this out pretty fast. It takes him about 45 seconds to empty it of treats. We still use it and it’s fun, but don’t expect it to keep a pup occupied for long. Durable, washable, and noisy, but great entertainment.
Durable and engaging. My 10-month old Lab puppy loves this toy. He likes both rolling it for treats and gnawing on it. I didn’t think it would last the first use – I thought he would crack the tube with the force of his back teeth. He has had it for several weeks and it has held up. I’m going to buy a few more to stash in the closet for the future. This toy is good for any dog who loves to snuffle. The tube caps are cleverly designed such that you can’t open it without holding down the dispenser slider, which Jack has yet to do accidentally. He can’t chew the end caps off, to his annoyance no matter how much he chews at it. We left the toy outside, it rained, brought it in two days later and the kibbles were still dry. (I threw them away anyway because fungus.) This is a good toy. Next we need it in extra large!
Loads of Fun. Our 1 year old German Shepherd loves this. She was able to solve the entire puzzle in short order. Fully entertaining to sit with her while she worked it. If you haven’t already added to cart you should do so right away!
tricks and treats. Perfect level 3 training tool. This keeps my 9 month old Pit/Pyrenees mix engaged while he works through moving parts to get treats. This is easy to use, I throw it in the dishwasher between uses and its perfect size for a medium pup. this is pretty well made, good quality plastic and durable.
Good Game for Dog Minds. My dog wants to destroy this game. She figured out most of it, but the middle part sliders are difficult.
