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”.

Great snuffle mat

Piper works as a therapy dog and people can load her mat and she finds the treats. Win for everyone with good mental stimulation for Piper.

So engaging!

My pups went bonkers for this when I introduced it into their puzzle rotaysh. One is more gentle and a nose-nudger. The other is an aggressive pawer. They both were engaged, challenged, and ultimately successful! I love that you can level up the difficulty of this toy: they will stay interested for many puzzle sessions to come.

Fun for small young pups

Checo loves this! I typically put his lunch in it to give him an extra project during the day. It's pretty easy, so likely wouldn't work for bigger or older dogs,

Too Easy but he loves it

55lb dog gets it very easy, but he loves playing with it for some reason. Entertains him for a long time lol, so pros and cons

Not for me or my pup

Is not suitable for my 50 lb dog. I think it would be better for a much smaller dog.

Well made but it does very little to stimulate my dogs interest.

Best toy ever

Hands down best toy . My 5 month old puppy loves it. Keeps her entertained far longer than any other toys. I haven't used any treats with it yet.
