Who says learning can't be fun? With the Dog Twister Plastic Interactive Dog Toy, you can stimulate your pup's brain and have a blast at the same time! This unique toy is a challenging and fun game for you and your active dog. He has to look for treats by moving one block after another in different circles. Increase the degree of difficulty by locking the blocks with bone-shaped pegs, which are placed in the hollows all around the up-side of the game. He has to learn to unplug the blocks by lifting the pegs one by one in order to be able to move the blocks and then find the treats. He'll love the reward of a job well done, and you'll love watching him put on his doggy thinking cap!
Key Benefits- Great for dogs looking for a challenge when it comes to treat-dispensing dog games and toys.
- Combines both challenging mental stimulation and independent play to maximize your dog’s playtime.
- Treat compartments on this dog game can hold your dog’s dry kibble to make mealtime more exciting!
- Enhances your relationship with your dog with this fun, interactive game.
- Easy to clean: simply remove all treats/kibble and handwash with warm soapy water.
Every dog plays differently and, since not all toys are created equal, it’s always best to keep a close watch on your pup in case things get ruff. Supervised play will help toys last longer and most importantly keep your pal safe. No dog toy is truly indestructible, so always remove the toy from playtime if pieces begin to break off.
Caution: Do not let the dog chew or bite the toy, only play with it together with your dog, do not leave the dog unattended, the dog must not play with or chew the blocks. Put away when the game is over. Designed for dogs, it is not a toy for a child.

HOW TO PLAY: Pull handles out to unlocked position to slide paw panels. Place treats or kibble in compartments. Line up sliding paw panels and lock them in place by pushing handles in. Let the games begin! Place game on floor and encourage your pet to seek treats. Dogs are smarter than you think. Sometimes we just need to teach them! Leave handles in the unlocked position and offset paw panels so your dog can smell and access treats easier.
FROZEN PUZZLE: Mix some canned/wet dog food or raw food with water, pour some of the mixture in the hollows, or place a small piece of sausage or a tasty treat in each of the hollows, pour a little water, put the game in the freezer and let it set. Perfect for energetic dogs, hot weather, or just extended fun.
EASY TO CLEAN: To wash your dog’s Dog Twister, simply remove all treats/kibble and hand wash with warm soapy water, rinse clean and dry. Fill again for more fun!

It was Almost perfect.
By Brandy on Jan 18, 2021
About this toy. I bought it to keep my staffy/ Dally entertained while I was at work and he was in his kennel. my daughter's collie had this toy figured out in less than 3 minutes ( first time ever having any puzzle )she managed to get the white nubs first go around the other dogs took a little bit more time but I'll manage to figure it out pretty quickly it was really enjoyable but quickly destroyed, as large dogs have large teeth and they destroyed the the white nub locks completely. could be made out of better material if it's recommended for larger breed dogs Greet for small dogs I'm sure

Challenging
By SmartDog on Jan 21, 2021
Make sure your dog is smart, this one is definitely a challenge! My boy is definitely an intelligent dog so I was looking for one that might be harder for him than other toys he had already mastered and this one still has him working! The first try I locked all the slides and when he couldnt figure it out he decided to pick it up and toss it like he does the balls you put treats in haha! Next I tried to not lock the slides and for some reason it still has him stumped. So we will keep practicing!

Not quite right
By WLLL on Jan 13, 2021
When the white side handles are locked in, my 30lb dog can't be bothered with unlocking them to get to the treats in the toy. Because the blue sliding panels on top aren't designed quite right to be completely and securely locked if it gets turned over, my dog gets his treats by flipping the whole toy upside down a few times with brute force. Then sometimes a blue panel or two comes apart from the toy (but it's easy to put it back in place). Still quite entertaining to watch, but my dog makes short work of this puzzle that was intended to make him take the time to solve methodically.

Doesn't make sense
By Nikk on Jan 21, 2021
I would not recommend this game for a dog. It might work for a young toddler with hands though. The fact that the push/ pull rings on the outside can easily get pushed in, which locks the top compartments from moving, means that a dog would have to make sure all of the rings are pulled out before even attempting to move the compartments around. It's just too complicated for even the smartest dog. Source: I am a federal dog handler with two nationally certified K9s.

Awesome! Toy
By HuntersMom on Jan 17, 2021
Our son gave this to our 10 year old LabraDoodle.. and he hasn't stopped playing. He figured it out the first session and has demanded to play every day. He is acting younger.. and more playful. With COVID it is hard to get out and visit the places we used to go to.. this great Puzzle gives him something to do that is fun and active. I think we will add a third puzzle to the mix. They can chew it.. so keep an eye out if you have a chewer.

Minutes of entertainment
By sferris on Dec 17, 2020
I have a 20lbs dog & 50lbs dog, and they enjoy this. They are used to puzzle feeders, so a new one never takes them long to figure out. I do like the added level of difficulty in which you can "lock" compartments. You pull out the white tabs to allow the sliding pieces to move freely. Push in a white tab (or several) to lock a section and the dog needs to unlock it by pulling out the white tab. The 2nd day, my larger dog ended up locking several sections by accident, was frustrated and proceeded to jump on the toy with both front feet. I was pleasantly surprised that he did not break it. He eventually figured out his error and got his treat. I like that this is plastic and easy to clean I have a 20lbs dog & 50lbs dog, and they enjoy this.

My little dog has figured out a way to cheat, does not unlock a section, but still manages to get her treat. Little sneak.. … more

Not what I expected
By Muffetta on Jan 23, 2021
I thought this would keep our 9 month old terrier busy while we are working. She was able to slide to get the treats but instead of pulling out the pegs to unlock she managed to pop off the pieces. To be fair she has another toy she discovered that to get to the treat, in lieu of rolling, throwing it down the stairs worked as well.

A harder puzzle for the active dog
By SFLETCH on Jan 7, 2021
I like this puzzle for my dog that I need to be distracted for awhile. I do have to use the "Paw off" command a little at the beginning. They are very strong with them and can break it. I say with them for the first week. Plus started at the lowest level. All tabs pulled out. They got the hang of it quickly and love their find games. I have several that I switch around each day.

Good puzzle!
By Kobi on Jan 21, 2021
Pup hasn’t quite figured out the lock version, but enjoys pushing the trapped doors around to get some treats. Our pup can also pull up the blue sliding pieces, so supervision is necessary. Usually completes in about 5 minutes, but could increase difficulty with frozen compartments, rather than treats!

Will interest even older dogs
By Lori on Jan 13, 2021
My 12 year old dog has little interest in toys. She does like to clean and love up fluffy squeeky toys, but on a limited basis. This puzzle has kept her interest for several weeks now. She still on the easier level - can't figure out the harder level, but she keeps going back to try to figure it out. Well worth the money!
