About Outward Hound Puzzle Toys for Dogs
Healthy Playtime Problem Solving
Did you know that 15 minutes of mental exercise can have a similar effect on your dog’s emotional well-being as 30 minutes of physical exercise? Dogs love to explore and problem solve and will use their noses and paws as tools. Each Nina Ottoson puzzle toy game is designed with your dog’s natural behaviors, senses and safety in mind.
Reduce Unwanted Behaviors
Setting your dog to work on a puzzle or game helps focus his attention and energy. This mental redirection can help reduce boredom, anxiety and destructive behaviors, too. Try using puzzle toys to distract your dog from fireworks, thunderstorms and other stressful situations.
Four Levels of Play
All dogs are different. That’s why each treat puzzle toy was designed with a different level of difficulty—to please dogs of all skill levels, whether they are beginners or puzzle-solving pros. Start by choosing a level that suits your pup’s skill set and level up as he learns!
Level 1
Perfect for beginners, these puzzles help gain interest and prepare dogs for puzzles to come.
Level 2
Features added obstacles, requiring your dog to combine actions to retrieve each tasty reward.
Level 3
These advanced puzzles challenge your dog to complete several steps in order to reach the hidden treats.
Level 4
This is the hardest level and requires multiple steps and problem-solving skills to solve!
For Bonding and Training
Nina Ottosson puzzle games are a great way to build your relationship with a newly adopted dog or help a shy dog come out of his shell. You can also use puzzles to help train your dog and practice basic commands like “sit” and “stay”.

Sophie doesn't play
By ineffective on Nov 24, 2021
My dog, Sophie, swallows her kibble whole and really doesn't know how to play. However, she is very food oriented. I really thought this would work. I was wrong. I can put kibble in it and she stares at the ball. If I roll it and kibble falls out, she eats the kibble -- swallows it whole -- and then sniffs the holes and stares at the ball. I show her how to roll it -- she waits for me to do it. This just isn't effective for adult dogs who apparently never played. And it hasn't slowed her eating. I think a dog who knows how to roll a ball would love this -- however it just isn't for Sophie.

A good tool to keep your dog busy for a few
By Suzanne307 on Oct 31, 2021
I got this for our older pug to get him moving and make him "workout" for some of his food. When it arrived I was a bit skeptical because it was much larger than I expected. I ordered the small and it is about the size of his head. You also have to load the treats through the same two openings that they fall out of when it rolls. Despite all that we gave it a try and it works just fine. Because it's kinda big and only has a couple holes he has to push it around a little more to get the treats to come out. Depending on your dog that could be a good feature or not. It worked out for us.

My puppy loves this!
By Caroline on Nov 1, 2021
5 stars: My puppy (15lb, 11 weeks) LOVES this. I put at least two of his meals in it every day. It keeps him entertained and extends his feeding time so that lunch can become another opportunity to tire him out. -1 star: I agree with all the reviews talking about how annoying it is that you can't open it to put food in, but the payoff is worth the effort, and I made a funnel to speed up the process.

Poorly designed
By LucyBleau on Oct 14, 2021
The only way to put the treats into this treat ball is through the 2 small holes where they are supposed to come out of! Since there were no directions, I spent several minutes trying to twist it open to fill it, instead taking forever to fill it. Cassie enjoyed rolling the ball, but became bored at how infrequently the treats were dispensed, again, since the ball only had 2 small holes. I’m returning and looking for a different option. Any suggestions????

Recommend for a chewer
By DogMom on Oct 13, 2021
My dog can destroy any bone/toy in seconds. We actually bet to see how long they last. This ball is extremely durable and he loves pushing it around. He did figure out how to put his tooth in the hole to carry it but he cannot chew it.

The dogs love it!
By Daisy on Nov 12, 2021
Thought I would buy my dogs a toy. I will have to buy another one because they both love it and don't want to share. It keeps them amused for quite a while.

Wonderful product.
By brnsansom on Aug 11, 2021
RoseBud woofed down her food in less than a minute. I got her a slow feeder bowl which slowed her down. At the time I saw this product she was 3 months old and I was trying to find enrichment toys that would give her the stimulation she needed. When this product arrived instead of giving her treats in this ball I decided to give her food in it instead of her treats. She loves her ball and loves getting food out of it. It has slowed her down to about 3-5 mins per meal. It helps her extra energy, satisfied her hunting instinct, and give her enrichment. I would buy this food again.

her favorite toy!

Our puppy loves this! When we need a few minutes of peace we put in some treats and she’s off to the races with it! She loves to push it around the floor!

Playing Ball For Treats
By Tigger on Jul 8, 2021
Tigger loves his new toy! He is ten yrs old and although this toy is a level 1 toy he really seems to love rolling the ball around. I’m not sure he gets that he can make treats come out of it the more he rolls it around, but he sure loves smelling the treats inside. Lol. He also like to carry the ball in his mouth. A perfect size treat to pair with it is Charlee Bear Grain Free Crunch Turkey, Sweet Potato & Cranberry flavor. With any luck he’ll learn how to play with the ball to get the treats in the next day or two. Kailey my 14 yrs old Lab even is interested in it and she rarely plays with toys.

Pup loves it!
By Cait on Aug 11, 2021
I have a 100 lb. Alaskan Malamute x German Shepherd mix. He loves this ball! He loves tennis balls too and because of this he thinks that this is a ball that I can also throw for him. I will warn owners that if you don’t like noises then this may not be the best toy. It is loud when it drops down onto a hardwood floor. I will put treats or a healthy type of cereal in the ball for him.
