Omega Paw Tricky Treat Ball Dog Toy

I have a 55 lb Golden Retriever x Border Collie who loves this. I've seen reviews about not being good for chewers, and he is not. He is a very intelligent dog and needed something to keep him stimulated through the day. I started with Zuke's mini treats (something that would fall out pretty easily) to teach him how it works, but it only took about 30 seconds for him to figure it out. I've since progressed to a bit larger treats that take longer to come out. This keeps him entertained for up to an hour at a time. He loves it. He pushes it around with his nose and uses his feet as well. Would highly recommend for a treat drive, intelligent dog who needs some brain stimulation!!

Our dog loved this toy as soon as we gave it to him, but he didn’t understand the concept of rolling/playing with it to get the treats out. He tried to chew through it to get the treats, and within 10 minutes he had chewed pieces out of it. We took it away for fear he’d swallow the pieces, and he’s still sniffing around the house to find it. It’s a bummer it’s not a tougher material.

This toy is not intended for heavy chewers but for dogs that need puzzles to challenge their mind. My shepherd/retriever mix needs fun challenges. Her activity level is higher than my other dog so I’m always looking for “puzzle toys”. I put about 10 Zukes mini training treats inside and it keeps her entertained while I eat breakfast. I keep it up out of her reach during the day so she knows it’s not for chewing up. She has other toys for chewing.

I ordered this for my pups who both love enrichment games and toys. I was looking to add some variety to our collection, and liked that the Tricky Treat Ball wasn't so clunky or hard (noisy) like some of the other balls and wobblers. Unfortunately, most of the treats got stuck outside the dispensing tube, making it an incredibly frustrating toy for both me and my dogs. It's nearly impossible to clean the inside and it didn't stand up to regular wear and tear. After one session, it had gouges and scrapes.

This is indeed tricky... There is one small hole where the treats fall out, what makes it particularly challenging is that the lip of the hole continues for about an inch and traps all the treats inside making it really difficult to actually get them out. Gizmo tries it for a little while and then gets frustrated and looks at me for help. I can't get the treats out either. Patience is not our virtue. Now we just spread gooey treats (like peanut butter) in the little craters on the surface of the ball instead. Way more fun and less frustration.

I bought a bunch of toys a couple weeks ago to give out slowly to my dogs. I gave this to my 15lb terrier mix with her breakfast food in it while I took a shower. Just in the 10 minutes I was in the shower she was able to chew through the side. Definitely do not recommend to any dogs that might be destructive. Unfortunately this was a total waste of money.

Bought this because Bailey is incredibly intelligent and loves the treat dispensing toys. I wanted something that didn't make the noise that hard plastic makes as she lifts it up and drops it on the floor. Unfortunately, in less than ten minutes she chewed a hole in it. Chewy customer service was great when I called about it, but they replaced it with another one, which I can't use.

I bought this after I was dog sitting and my client had this same exact toy for their pitbull. I bought it for my heeler and both balls have lasted a long time and are sturdy. I bough this months ago and it looks just as good as it did the day I got it. My only complaint is that the treats seem to come out too easy so I wish the hole was a little smaller but I will try using bigger treats and see if that helps.

We have a 60 lb pup who loves to play fetch, and is a power chewer. Have tried many toys and balls which ended up torn and trashed, but this one lasts! And it doubles up as a slow feeder (we trimmed the inside lip so treats come out a little easier; without doing that it was really difficult for even kibble to fall out). We got multiple so that should the day come where our current ball finally gets demolished, we have backups.

I bought this because my dog needed something that would challenge her to get treats better than her Kong. Unfortunately the treats fall out easily just like the Kong. She never chews on her Kong but pretty much obliterates everything else including this Omega Paw treat ball. Lasted only minutes.
