Nina Ottosson by Outward Hound Hide N' Slide Puzzle Game Dog Toy

A trainer recommended this type of dish for slowing down my little Cavachon who flat inhales his food. This is a level 2 dish but he figured it out and spent a good 15 min eating. He eats while we do and this keeps him from barking. It stimulates his mind which is very healthy. But what made me particularly happy was that rather than rushing and being hyper after his meal, he was calm. The dish is well constructed and washed easily. I hope they make even more designs!

Overall, if you have a smart dog, this might be too easy, and a Level 3 difficulty puzzle toy may be more appropriate. I got this for my clever 25lb mixed breed dog. Even though he's never used a puzzle toy before, and even though this is Level 2 difficulty, he figured it out immediately. My sweet but not bright Great Dane found this toy a bit more exciting. Even with her giant face, she was able to operate the sliding mechanisms, so this really is a toy that is appropriate for all sizes of dogs.

I bought this for my evil genius of a rabbit. After 3 other puzzles were solved in less than 1 minute, I thought this would finally be the one that stumped him. After all, it's two moving parts per compartment and he is a rabbit without opposable thumbs. 3 minutes and 45 seconds later, The Jabberwock was at my feet, proudly herding me towards his conquered foe, or so I thought. It turns out, he had gotten the last compartment wedged closed with multiple swinging pieces and needed help from someone who does have opposable thumbs. It took him another 5 minutes to fix his error. It was the quietest 5 minutes I've known since he ambushed his way into my life and home 5 years ago. I highly recommend I bought this for my evil genius of a rabbit. After 3 other puzzles were solved in less than 1 minute, I thought this would finally be the one that stumped him.

My giant Swissy puppy (7 months old and about 100 pounds) loves this puzzle so much, I think he would do it all day if I let him! I was a little worried that his big snout would make it hard for him to manipulate the pieces, but he's had no problem with that! I particularly appreciate that there are no loose pieces on this puzzle, so I don't have to worry about choking hazards. He gets so excited when he sees me filling the puzzle with treats, and this toy really engages his full attention until he's found every last one. This is by far his favorite toy/game, and after several weeks it shows no signs of getting old for him. Highly recommend!

Purchased this one and a level 3 after reading the reviews. We only use this on a rainy day or when company is over. We put in a very little piece of cheese, perhaps some of her treats and always a bit of peanut butter. We do this to each puzzle and give her level 2 first that gets her going...we do each puzzle twice and she is exhausted. We did not purchased level 1 since most said their dog figured it out fast. Easy to clean!

My rescue Barrier (Basset x Terrier) puppy is so smart! I've used other level 1 puzzles for my dogs, and they wildly wack at it & chew on it. She figured those out in a hot second. So I got my darling level 2 and 3. She figured it out and gently moves the pieces and takes the treats! Looking forward to a level 4 for this special girl! I'm hoping to find one, anyways.

I’m taking away 1 star as this toy wasn’t all that challenging for Emma... She’s never had a puzzle like this before and cleared it out in less then 2 minutes. I love keeping Emma mentally stimulated as she’s a 2 and a half year old energetic rescue Lab Vizsla pup and is in service dog training and love to watch her have fun with new brain teaser and I feel disappointed when she figures them out so quickly.

My dog isn't going to win any awards for intelligence. Sweetness, yes! It took me 30 seconds to load this game and about 5 seconds for her to get all the treats. Definitely not good ROI! Chewy was marvelous and gave me a credit and asked that I donate the toy. I will but I HIGHLY doubt that there is a dog dumber than mine who finds this challenging!

My dog loves this puzzle. It was super easy for her to figure out but she gets excited whenever I get it out. To some people the easiness could be a con but the puzzle is serving it’s purpose and giving my dog the brain stimulation she needs. It is also very easy to clean which is a plus.

My dogs love this toy! I upgraded to Intermediate level 2 because level 1 has become too easy for them. I thought this would take them slightly longer to figure out. My boy figured it out way too quickly, but it still keeps him occupied for a few minutes because he has to move all of the slides and pegs around to get the food. My guess is that we will be moving up to level 3 very soon!
