Simple first puzzle
This is a great first time puzzle for puppies or dogs who have never used a food puzzle before. It has two "levels" of difficulty. My poodle figured it out in seconds but some of the dogs that board with me have taken some time to find all the food. I do really like the fact that these boards can be frozen so the treats can be made to last longer and be extra enriching!
Know your Pet
Our 5 mth old Pocket American Bully made the covers chew toys once the treats were gone. She hesitated at first with trying the puzzle but once she got the first bone off and discovered she could chew that, it was a wrap for each game. She is an aggressive chewer so this was not a good purchase...but you live and you learn.

Puzzle Fun
My Lab loves puzzle toys. I bought this one for him and he loves it. The pieces are sturdy, and I love the bright orange color. I put kibble in some and liver treats in the others. I am curious to see which ones he goes for first. This puzzle is made very well. I highly recommend.
They all pop over
I do like that he can smell the treat through the plastic bones, but when he taps the bone where the treat is, 3 or 4 will pop out as well and he grabs that instead of the treat and makes a run for it. My pup enjoys it anyway, but the game will last a bit longer if they all didnt pop out.
Puzzle to keep the pups entertained
My dogs love this thing! It took the one a bit longer to figure out and there was a little whining at first but now she’s an expert. She gets so excited when I ask her if she wants her puzzle!
Love this!
It took a few minutes, but our 15 year old Jack Russell Terrier figured it out and looks forward to using this every night. We may need to get another - more difficult one for her.

Monitor play; good for enrichment
Good product so far! My 2 month old Corgi (Emrys) loves this. But she also LOVES to chew on everything. So I definitely recommend monitoring your puppies play time with this toy, as once it's chewed up it's no good and there's a chance your pup may ingest plastic.
So 5 stars as it perfect enrichment, -1 because destructive puppies can easily chew it up and end up with possible plastic foreign bodies.
Caution! Those white bones are loose!
Shame on me. As I look at the picture, I can see now that those white bones are NOT attached, so they just flip off. My dog would eat them. I was hoping for something I could give him that was unsupervised, but this isn't it. I'll be donating it to the local Humane Society.
Puppy loves it but figured it too fast
My 11 week old puppy has already mastered this in less than a week. Either this is too easy or he is absurdly smart and I'm in for a lot of trouble... After 5 days with this my 11 week old puppy can complete it in less than 5 minutes. His favorite part is actually just getting all the bone covers off and batting them around and chewing on them.
great beginner puzzle
We’ve had this puzzle for many many years, it’s level 1 out of the series so of course it might be too easy for some dogs. It works great as a starter puzzle, it’s too easy for our oldest dog but perfect for our middle. The youngest dog is still afraid of it so we’re working on it with her lol. But our oldest has grabbed the bones even and tried to chew them. After feeding we simply pick up the bones and put it back in it’s place. That solves the dogs chewing on the bones or the base. If your dog chews a lot on random things just make sure to leave it out of reach. We love Nina Ottoson puzzles!
