West Paw Qwizl Tough Treat Dispensing Dog Chew Toy

I am a huge West Paw fan. I have a Rottie/Chow and a Pointer/JRT. These toys really hold up to aggressive chewers. For bedtime every night I fill these with treats and the pups will work on them for 30 min or so and drift off. There are several brands of treats that work really well for these -- not too big or too small but fit snug so the pups can get some but not all in one sitting -- but I am not sure I am allowed to say which ones. There is a certain peanut butter soft and chewy nugget treat that is my go-to. RULE OF THUMB... for easy cleaning soak in water, push out old treat with a chopstick or wooden spoon handle, put in the dishwasher.

I use the True Acre Dental Chew sticks and one fits perfectly inside the large toy. I have a pitbull though and he has chomped this sucker almost in half. It get 3 stars for the fact that I only need to buy a replacement at 8 weeks instead of 5 minutes. To be fair, the ONLY treat toy he likes and he can't break off pieces of, the Original kong.....and the base section of deer and elk horns.

Tried stuffing small cookies into these, but it's kind of tricky to get the cookies in just right to be an effective challenge for the pup. Most of the time the cookies just fall out. Tried inserting a bully stick into it, but again, the stick needs to be of the right thickness for it to work. As a bully stick (or correct size) holder, it works well; keeps the pup from just marching through the stick. However, to pull the stick out more, I often end up using a set of pliers to pull the remaining bully stick out. So, it works; just takes a bit more work. Maybe I need to research more on how to use this thing. But so far it's been durable and "works."

Could really use suggestions on what can be used that will not fall out but fig can access to try get out. Tried bully sticks but to thin and they stink, don’t like rawhide and the treat needs to be at least 7 inches long to stick out ends and thick enough that it doesn’t slip out. Or something that can be stuck into sides that will stick out but not fall out?

I have an aggressive chewer who is extremely food motivated. We added the Qwizl toy for a new challenge and it worked. He outwits the traditional kong pretty quickly (even frozen) but the Qwizl is keeping him busy. Currently looking for new ways to fill it.

My dog is smart and lazy. He has learned how to outwit treat balls by putting them against the couch or wall and letting the treats fall into his mouth as he bites the ball. With that in mind, I wasn't sure if he would like this toy, get fed up with it, or chew it to pieces in frustration. He LOVED it. It took him 2 hours to finish the first chew. The second time it took him 4 hours. He's mentally engaged and motivated to keep going until he gets the entire treat out. I had expected him to bite through the toy, but there are no bite marks. That could change in the future, but even if the toy only lasts a week it was well worth the money.

It's been two years of trying to find a chew toy that my dog could spend more than 5 minutes with. This one seems indestructible for my hard chewer, and it keeps him occupied for 15 minutes or more per stuffing. Highly recommend this.

this will hold a med milkbone if you twist it so you can get it all the way thru. it works good for that.. my dog enjoys getting the milkbone out.

Keeps pups busy and helps 26th teething too! Definitely recommend. Put some pnut butter smear and they love it!

I stuff bully sticks in this for my 90lb power chewer. It’s been great! I get thick cut 6 inch sticks and really shove them in. She has to work at it to loosen them up and pull them out before she can eat them. This system makes her bully sticks last anywhere from an hour to a day which is a huge improvement over her normal 15-20 minutes! Also no bite marks or signs of wear on the toy at all and she chomps on it pretty hard!
