Every dog plays differently and, since not all toys are created equal, it’s always best to keep a close watch on your pup in case things get ruff. Supervised play will help toys last longer and most importantly keep your pal safe. No dog toy is truly indestructible, so always remove the toy from playtime if pieces begin to break off.

Keeps My Dogs Entertained and Happy!
I’ve tried several puzzle toys for my dogs, but this toy is by far the best. My dogs absolutely love it! It’s incredibly durable, which is perfect since they’re quite the chewers. The best part? It keeps them busy for at least an hour each time. This toy not only provides mental stimulation but also helps in slowing down their eating pace when I load it with treats. The adjustable difficulty levels are a fantastic feature, allowing me to match the challenge to their skill level. If you’re looking for a toy that will both entertain your pet and promote healthy habits, this is the one to get! Highly recommend.

Worth the wait
I got this when my puppy was about 3 months and it was a disaster. He LOVED it but he expressed his love through barking at it in an attempt to? I don’t know- get it to release the kibble faster? No ide but it was LOUD and not my favorite.That said, reviews were great and build quality was solid so instead of returning or leaving a 2 start review I shelved it for a few months.Our puppy is now 8 months (and rarely barks). I pulled this out again for a round 2 and it was a MUCH better experience. He’s still super excited but isn’t barking at it. You can fit about a 1/4 a cup of kibble in the top section so it’s usefull as a slow feeder and keeps him entertained for about 10 minutes.Only thing I’d mention is that this thing weighs like 3 pounds so it makes a LOT of noise rolling around on a hard surface. Definitely recommend using it in a carpeted room. We have wood floors and throw rugs and the dog doesn’t understand the concept of keeping it on the rug…. so it is pretty noisy. Sorry downstairs neighbors!!

This is a great mental stimulation toy
Purchased this for our GSD puppy and itâs been really great so far. Sheâs a typical 9 week old puppy-huge amounts of energy, chews A LOT, and this really engages her.I originally wanted to order the large but only the small was in stock. Iâm glad it was because the size is better than I was expecting and itâs a lower price point. It doesnât seem small at all, more a medium. Check measurements if youâre concerned. The small size is perfect IMO.I like how you can adjust the opening to increase/decrease the difficulty. I have given it to our pup to play with while sheâs out of her crate and Iâm working on something, that way I can adjust/help her if she gets frustrated. I havenât put an entire meal in it, so she usually has it completed it about 10 minutes. It doesnât keep her busy for a really lengthy time but for her age, the amount of stimulation in one setting is great. As she gets older, Iâm hoping I can gradually increase the difficulty and she can play with it longer, but we will have to wait and see.Itâs a really tough plastic and surprising heavy for a toy, but it needs to be weighted in the bottom to achieve the bobble function. Itâs louder than other toys and if youâve got a rough pup, it might do some damage if it were tossed.I cannot speak to it use in a crate because I havenât tried it for that. To be honest, I probably wonât because I want our puppy to view her crate as a relaxing place and this toy gets her stimulated and as mentioned, she can get frustrated if it gets too hard.I saw some reviewers say their dogs chewed it apart. I think that depends a lot on age and when youâre allowing it to be used (supervised vs unsupervised). Our pup gets really frustrated when itâs empty, so I make sure Iâm around and can hear that sheâs gotten all the kibble out. Then I remove it and give her something else to do. If she were allowed to have the toy once it was empty, I could see her maybe trying to chew it out of frustration. Itâs big enough that at her age, I doubt she would be able to chew the tough plastic. Give her another few weeks and that might change, but I wonât allow her to have access to it without supervision to avoid her getting frustrated.Overall I think if you are looking for something to keep your pup busy and content for a long time, I would look for something else. I feel like interactive feeders like this are great for what they do but once itâs done giving treats or kibble, a dog could become frustrated and chew on it. If youâre looking for something engaging that can be used periodically to stimulate and challenge your pup, I would highly recommend this one!

Works well and keeps pup entertained

Best enrichment toy
My dog eats all of his meals with enrichment toys. I have many of them, and this one is easily the best. It’s durable, adjustable, and teaches him to use his paws and snout and not his teeth.If you’re reading this review you should probably just buy the toy.

Not the best if you have a destructive puppy
This toy lasted my 10 month Labrador Retriever less than a day. It did keep her busy and engaged for a while, but once she figured it out well enough, the treats were gone in minutes. Then she started chewing up the lid to get it open. So now it’s just become a big chew toy for her lol. If you have a big breed pup that loves to chew everything, this toy will not serve its purpose for long.

Fácil de usar e limpar e faz menos barulhos que as bolas ocas que se acha com facilidade por aÃ. à bom pois permite ajustar o tamanho da portinha e consequentemente deixar mais ou menos difÃcil. Mexe aleatoriamente. Muito legal pra cachorro entediado ou que come muito rápido.

Muy resistente. Mis perros son bastante rudos y este juguete está muy bien construido y les encanta jugar con él. A mis perros les resultó fácil aprender a sacar las golosinas. Hasta mi gato participó en la acción.

An excellent interactive dog toy that stands out from all others we’ve tried (many snuffle mats, ball feeders and Kongs). The adjustable difficulty settings works well – when set to maximum difficulty, it keeps our dog engaged for up to 30 minutes. The small size holds between 40-60g of kibble dependant on what difficult you have it on.Pros:- The adjustable difficulty makes it versatile for different dogs and keeps them challenged, providing up to 30 minutes of entertainment at the highest setting- Extremely durable construction with strong plastic and good weight, ensuring it can handle regular useSimple but effective design that dogs understand quickly while still maintaining interestCons:- Food loading can be tricky – would benefit from including a funnel- Difficulty adjustment sliders are quite stiff to move, though they stay securely in placeMultiple friends have bought this toy on our recommendation and agree it’s worth the investment. 5/5 stars – would absolutely recommend for any dog owner looking for a good feeder toy!

I was looking for a food dispenser toy as a boredom breaker for my working cocker spaniel and as a method of making him âworkâ for his food to help manage his waistline! Iâve had various types before but they usually donât get used, either because they dispense food too easily and only last a few minutes each time, are flimsy and break, or are too difficult and he gets bored trying with no reward. This one is great; a good size and really robust, and the weighting combined with the ability to vary the size of the dispensing hole means itâs just difficult enough without being too difficult. I put his kibble in it each evening, along with a few pieces of treats to make it even more interesting, and he spends a good half hour pushing it around till itâs empty. It really keeps his attention and he looks forward to it each day; he knows when itâs time and gets very excited waiting while I fill it! By the time itâs empty heâs ready for a sleep, so it definitely tires him out mentally and physically. As some other reviews say, it takes a few minutes to get the kibble and treats fed into the hole to fill it, but itâs a very minor niggle and certainly wouldnât put me off buying it. Definitely well worth the money- if youâre looking for a food dispenser toy for any reason, Iâd highly recommend trying this one.

Excellent jouet, mes chiens l’ont immédiatement adopté et l’adorent! Il y a une trappe rotative en dessous du bouchon jaune, qui permet de le remplir avec de petites croquettes et une trappe sur le côté, dont l’ouverture est ajustable pour permettre aux croquettes de tomber. Mes chiens le poussent avec leur pattes et le bout du nez dans toute la pièce et jouent avec un plaisir évident, je ne regrette pas mon achat.
