Trixie Mini Mover Activity Strategy Game Dog Toy, Level 3

I was worried if this toy would hold up to my very engaged 5 month pup. She’s a hard core player and chewer but it’s amazingly well made! She figured out most of this pretty quickly but her basic strategy for the drawers is to claw, dig and chew. She’ll do this for 10-15 minutes before they open and she’s not gentle. We’ve had it for a few weeks and there’s hardly a mark on it.

My 5 month old puppy loves this puzzle, she gets so excited to hunt for treats, and it's not too challenging, but there are also some "compartments" she still hasn't figured out which proves its not "too easy". The only downside is that I wish it came with more of the "peg" pieces. I have another puzzle from the same company, so luckily I have 2 additional pegs that fit, but I can imagine that only 2 pegs would not give you the opportunity to use the puzzle to its full capacity, or to set it up in a more challenging way for clever pups. All in all, we are happy with it!

I have bought quite a few of these games by Trixie and other developers. This one if the most challenging for my little 14-lb Yorkie/Shihtzu mix. The only thing I can't get her to do is to grab the cones in her mouth to remove them. She keeps trying to knock them out with her paw, but that doesn't work very well.

Both boys liked this puzzle. I have to keep an eye on them as they will pull out the drawer and take off with it to chew as well. It’s fun to see them nose around and paw at it trying to get the treats out. Some parts easier than others, still fun. And no, it won’t keep them busy for hours, but for mine a good 10 min or more which is good stimulation. I have a different puzzle as well so I swap them out when using them

Shelties are too smart for their own good! Grayson has six puzzles he plays on a daily rotation...other easy ones have been given away...but this puzzle is his all-time favorite. He takes puzzles seriously with lots of slobbering and use of both long snout and his left paw. Buy this puzzle for loads of fun times for both your pup and you. My favorite, too!

My dog is still figuring this out, which is funny because we do scent games (she's a beagle mix) and I thought she'd get it sooner.(When she takes those two cover things out she thinks there's food inside them, like a kong!) If I'd started with one of the beginner games she'd have gotten it sooner, but it's actually great that she's taking some time to figure it out because it keeps her occupied longer. So I really do recommend this - it's more challenging than the others (I know dogs that have figured out the beginner ones immediately, rendering them useless!) I think it is well-made too. And I love Chewy -this arrived 2 days after I ordered it!

This game is really cool. Usually my dog figures out these type of games very quickly and gets bored. This allows different challenges and keeps my dog interested. Would recommend this game!

This might be a great toy for a smaller dog or one who, uh, isn't that bright? My dog (60 pounds and really good at puzzles) had this one figured out and emptied in about ten seconds. I also was not comfortable with the two round pieces that are easily pulled out as part of the game. They are too small for my dog to play with and not be concerned that he might choke on them.

My baby has not had a chance to play with this yet (sshhh! it's a Santa gift) but know she will love it. She is very smart, and in spite of "experts" saying dogs don't reason, she does and will be able to do this puzzle with no trouble.

I bought this toy for my 6 month old Visla puppy and he loves "playing" with it. It keeps his attention, although it is definitely a toy to use under supervision. He hasn't quite figured out the lever movement but watching him figure out how to pull the string to get a treat was a joy. This definitely stimulates his mind and helps to tire him out mentally.
