Nina Ottosson by Outward Hound Brick Puzzle Game Dog Toy

We got this as part of an enrichment plan our dog trainer put us on. We have 4 dogs and every one of them enjoyed getting the snacks out. This is not a toy you leave your dog alone with when you need a break yourself, this is to activate their sniffer and allow some brain work to take place. I see a lot of people posting that their dogs chewed these up. There’s no way they’re chewing these up if you’re supervising them. Yes, the pieces come off for multiple reasons such as cleaning and so they can uncover hidden treasures. You should be there to take them away if they are interested in eating the pieces rather than the snacks they uncover. I would recommend and buy as a gift for other dog We got this as part of an enrichment plan our dog trainer put us on. We have 4 dogs and every one of them enjoyed getting the snacks out.

I bought this because my 4mo cockapoo figured out the Hide-n-Slide very quickly so that one only lasted him maybe 2 minutes. This one keeps him much more engaged - about 5-7minutes. I love how the red boxes slide to reveal another hiding space for treats. I’m worried about the lids to the boxes breaking off though. They snap in and out of the hinge like you normally see in toys, but I also see those plastic holdings break off in other products. Let’s hope this one holds better. Overall very pleased with this design and the quality of the material

I have a 3yr old Lab Mix and he loves this toy!! It doesn’t take him too long to figure it out, but I can tell he enjoys the challenge of finding the treats. A few reviews are disappointed in the covers popping off, but I find this really great honestly! The fact that the covers pop off makes it so the whole toy isn’t destroyed. Joe, the lab, likes to use his teeth to get to things, so the fact that all the covers do is pop off makes this a great toy for him. It also makes cleaning easier. I would say, you to need to be supervising the play with this toy. That way no covers get chewed and you can provide the necessary reinforcement for doing what you want them to.

Our pitbull mix, partially blind, loves this toy. It took her quite awhile to figure out how it all works, partially because she cannot use her eyesight to help. We monitor her when playing so that once she's found the treats we take it away so she can't chew it (she did chew two of the bones when we weren't vigilant.) She gets it only about once a week. We put peanut butting, apples, and treats in it and it keeps her busy for about 5 minutes which can seem like a lifetime!

My 1.5 yr old food obsessed Cavalier uncovered the hidden treats in a few minutes. The puzzle toy was not at all intellectually stimulating and didn't relieve boredom, which is what it claims to do right on the toy box. The engagement with this toy lasted a few minutes and got my dog all worked up because she wanted more treats after there were non left to be found in the puzzle. This is not what I was hoping to achieve when I bought this puzzle. I'm very disappointed by it.

Our cockapoo loves this puzzle toy and occasionally it’s the only way we can get her to eat. The game is well made with the top flap being detachable and durable. I like the number of compartments and the various ways for our dog to engage using her nose, mouth, and paws. It’s important to supervise your dog while using the game as on occasion our dog removes the white blocks from the puzzle and then chews on them. At that point I take those blocks away so she can stay focused on the rest of the puzzle.

Awesome toy for my puppy Rattie. It's a challenge for her to use it without digging, which we are trying to teach her, so it keeps her occupied. Definitely not meant to be unsupervised play, but it's fun teaching her. The small red doors do pop off is she steps on them while they're open, but the hinges aren't closed so they snap back in no problem! Mostly easy to clean, just a little difficult to get under the sliding red compartments so if you use peanut butter, avoid that spot!

This is the first puzzle toy I've purchased for my pup. She figured it out extremely quickly and the whole activity did not entertain her for as long as I had hoped it would. The toy is also not as durable as I was expecting. Several of the red bone imprinted covers popped right off and my pup is only 8lbs!!

Recently adopted a pit mix and have been looking for things to keep his mind busy! I was reluctant to buy at first but decided to cave and I am so glad I did! My 1yr old pup goes crazy every time I pull out his puzzle, I just fill it up with his kibble and watch his mind go to work! It seriously amazes me when he maneuvers the compartments. I read reviews saying it breaks easily, and I do agree that the lids tend to break off. However they are so easy to clip back in and it takes maybe 15 seconds to fix and rinse off. Highly recommend!!

We have two dogs. Jack is very smart. Delilah, not so much. She is part Rat Terrier and is driven by instinct to hunt for mice. When the boxed Puzzle toy arrived it said "Intermediate" level on the box. We thought, we will for sure have to return this. We put treats in the trap doors and under white bones and sat it on the ground. To our surprise and delight, her bred in skill set allowed her to master this toy puzzle. We love this toy. It helps her keep her nose burrowing hunting skills active.
