Nina Ottosson by Outward Hound Smart Puzzle Game Dog Toy

Got the toy and he was really excited about it, i hid treats and set some of the bones to harder difficulty and others easier. It took him all of 5 minutes to find and eat all the treats and then start destroying the bones. However, up until he started destroying it, they did keep his attention. I think my dog is just a little too destructive to properly play with these types of toys. I would recommend for dogs who don't have a tendency to chew on plastic.

My dog Mishka is a trained dog who gets bored a lot. She loves sniffing and treat motivated. Puzzles seemed like it was be great for her. Oh was I right.. Lol.. She was have so much fun. I wasn't even able to get pictures, the game was happening over and over so fast. I was even having her help me put the pieces back. See she figured out she could pick them up with her teeth so she would sniff some time but quickly grab pieces and see what was under them. Any yes this was no matter how I was laying them on the board.. So..... My dog had a blast but unfortunately for only 5 minutes and way too many treats... (even though I was given little, little bit) play over over at rapid speed. -definitely My dog Mishka is a trained dog who gets bored a lot. She loves sniffing and treat motivated.

My dogs are both big sniffers so they figured it out pretty fast which is why I only gave 4 instead of 5 stars but they keep going to it to play so I like it well enough! I wish it had a little more grip on the bottom so it didn’t move around as much but that also makes it more difficult for the dogs so that feature is a little give and take. Overall I’m glad I got it!

This is definitely worth it. My puppy goes to work with me every day and this helps keep him entertained, he’s not really good motivated and this helps get him to eat because he works for it. I would definitely recommend this product and others to help keep your pups mind fresh. My older pups also play with them and enjoy them very much.

I got this toy thinking our dog would have a good time trying to figure out this puzzle. Well, she gave it a try and left it after finding one treat. She is not a "food hound" , maybe the treats just are not her thing.. She then wanted to play with the plastic "bones".

It just came in. It's very cute, we're just having to figure out how this works. He wouldn't turn them over for his treats that he really loved but he's digging around them now for bits of a cookie.

I got this for my chihuahua terrier’s second birthday. She loves it! My pup eats most of her meals from some sort of slow feeder or puzzle toy so she caught on quickly. Most of the puzzle toys she has are some sort of ball which she has to nose or paw around until her food dispenses. The first time I gave her this toy, she watched me filling it with food and then putting on the bone covers. When I set it down for her I lifted off one of the bone covers and showed her the food and then I replaced the bone cover. She spent a few minutes figuring out how to remove the first bone cover but she got faster with each one. After the third time she was working it like a machine.

She was removing the bone covers methodically in a clockwise fashion and saving the middle bone for last. Now, I have my eye on the level 2 puzzles from this series. … more

My 5 month old puppy loved it. It took him a moment to figure out, but once he did it was great. I read the suggestions and put the pieces on the easier side for now. I look forward to feeding him meals in there to keep him busy.

I have a 5 month border collie mix (about 30lbs rn). He loves this toy and has a bit of an obsession with it. I bought it for when I leave so that he would have a special toy to keep him busy while I'm out. I will say that it keeps him entertained and he will go pull it out of his bin and throw it all over the room while I'm home. However, he does not use it how it was made to be used, so I can't leave him with it when I'm away. It took him maybe two tries to figure out that he could hold the base still with one paw and swipe all of the bones out with his other in a couple of tries. It is an easy puzzle and he's pretty good at finding tricks to figure them out faster once he does it once I have a 5 month border collie mix (about 30lbs rn).

It is an easy puzzle and he's pretty good at finding tricks to figure them out faster once he does it once or twice, so I was expecting this and didn't want to spend a ton of money on a complicated toy just to have the same result. He really just wants to kick around the bone pieces and chew on them, and still hasn't figured out that the treats go under them. He usually just circles back and eats them all after the fact. I figured that the bone pieces may not last long because he's getting in new teeth and shreds everything, but they have lasted longer than I expected. He made a hole in one of them today and it has been about a week and a half, so I say that's a win! Just be aware because the plastic is not puppy proof! I will definitely be looking for replacement pieces and would buy again! … more

I bought this thinking it would help my 5 month old Yorkie's development. I prepared it with bits of treats she likes, I put it down and watched to see if she would see hw to step on the piece so it would expose the treat. She walked over , sniffed, then bit into the center ridge on the little bones and ran off with the little bone to chew on it. She repeated this for 3 bones and then I picked it up before she could destroy the bones. No challenge and chewing could be harmful.
