Great game
4 Stars
Great game
I bought this a year ago and I still think it is a great game - because it is self rewarding and you can just watch while your furbaby is being occupied. The only thing is if your dog is too smart and figure this out after few days, then he finishes all the treats within a minute and wants more. Now I give it to my dog once in a while, when I feel like he might have forgotten and will take longer this time and it works for us. Just the turning wheel in the middle gets him frustrated sometimes and he wants to bite it and sometimes I have to hold it still on the floor for him so that it is not sliding as our baby giant is trying to get them all. We have a German Shepherd and he gets bored easily, so this is a good game to keep him busy even for a little while.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality Puzzle
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2024
Color: Dog Worker (Green)Verified Purchase
This puzzle has been great for our 1 year old mix breed hound. It is very high quality and would not easily be chewed up or broken (although to be fair Freddie is not a big chewer and likes to keep his toys in good shape mostly). Freddie figured out the theory behind this puzzle fairly quickly, but is still perfecting his technique of spinning the internal circle - I would say this is his favorite puzzle (that we own) as it offers him a challenge but he can complete it with minimal frustration. I recently discovered that the puzzle can be made a bit more challenging by putting the treats in the holes rather than just in the cups - that way the dog will have to move the peg twice in order to reveal a treat. I have not tried freezing treat tidbits in the little cups (as is suggested by manufacturer) - but I think I will try this in the summer.

I would recommend this puzzle to people who have dogs that like puzzles and have tried a few easier ones first. Freddie benefited from me showing him and helping him out the first few times with this before I stopped offering him help and he had to finish it on his own (can't give this to him around my 3 year old who just does the whole thing for him).

I just want to add, not all dogs, even smart ones, like puzzles - my dog, who passed away, was really smart and could learn and do tricks like a little circus dog (and loved it), but when i gave her even the most basic puzzle (a ball rolling treat dispenser) she looked at me like I was insane and turned up her nose; that is just to say, as this is not a cheap toy, make sure that your dog actually likes these types of challenges.

5.0 out of 5 stars Boredom Relief / Mental Exercise
Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2018
Color: Dog SmartVerified Purchase
The media could not be loaded.
 So many are complaining that the bones got chewed up. That's because the dog has to be taught that the bone isn't the prize, the item held within is. They don't reason like we do and anything to a dog is a chewable item. I made the same mistake with my 8-yr old hyper-but-uber-smart Spitz / Husky mix. When he was a puppy I didn't know even a portion of what I do now and he tore up a great number of toys as a result.

I'm starting fresh with a new pound puppy. My 10-month old took off with the bones initially and tried to chew them. I removed them from her and redirected her to the real treasure. After the 2nd round of training she started ignoring the bones and going for the real treat. She now takes her meals in this or her Kong Wobbler. I still have to watch because as I was typing this she finished the game and got bored waiting for me so proceeded to chew up one of the bones.

The 8-yr old owned this in no time. His first time with it he put his paw on the center to hold it in place, then picked up the bones, tossed them to the side and reaped his rewards. He was considerably more slobbery than the girl, so do be aware that these things can get slimed. I'm using other toys with him due to the goo factor, and to offer him more of a challenge since this was far too easy for him.

This has been a great relief for boredom for the 10-month old. She cracked her foot on our patio when the two dogs were running full speed ahead in the yard, resulting in a toe fracture. I am to keep this puppy on limited activity for 4 - 6 weeks so I'm learning all sorts of new tricks to keep her mind active to make up for the lack of physical exertion. Now that she's able to put weight on the foot this toy, the Kong Wobbler, and a plush toy with holes to pull smaller plushes from are helping me do just that.

Pros:
Good introduction to puzzle toys
Durable But requires training to prevent dogs from chewing the pieces up
Lightweight
Easy to set up

Cons:
Noisy if your dog manhandles it
Moves all over the floor
Slobber can make the pieces difficult to handle (or just gross)
Takes a little time to set up
Supervision needed

Video is the boy on his 3rd attempt. He has a listening problem - he can't hear "sit" when he doesn't want to. :D I have to send him to the crate because he has resource guarding issues I've never been successful at training out of him so to keep things civil I send him away from the game before I refill. If that one piece hadn't escaped, breaking his concentration, he would have finished up pretty darn quick. The girl is less elegant in her execution.

This puzzle should not be listed as Level 3. It's far too easy to figure out, and both my 9-month-old Standard Poodle puppy and my 15-year-old senior Sheltie figured it out within minutes of me putting it on the ground. It's very sturdy and well-built and has wonderful rubber feet that hold it in place quite well, but it's more a level 2 or lower puzzle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product & price
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2024
Color: Dog SmartVerified Purchase
When I received this I put little bit of her food in each slot. She did great. My daughter came over to watch my 10 week old Doberman/Belgian Malinois puppy and my 98 year old mother. When we got home about 3 hours later she could pick the 2 slots with treat and never missed I thought you put food in all places but guess not. It a good way to start so there’s always a reward to get them started. She really likes to play with it and she is learning patience because she has to wait for me to put more kibble or treats in it. Great price. For the price it is now I’m going to get a backup for her. I’m getting one for my son for his 6 month mini poodle. EXTREMELY SATISFIED with my purchase. My grandson said she’s got a really good sniffer,she should be a dog sniffer 😂

Our husky/lab mix (large breed) was really perplexed the first two times even with prompts (over 9 minutes to complete). Got really fast with it after the second time (2mins now at the 5th time around). Fun way to give him treats I think even if it's still pretty brief. Sturdy - isn't knocked over by our big boy and doesn't move around when he is solving it.
