Dog Puzzle Toy 3 Levels, Mental stimulating for Boredom and Smart Dogs, Treat Puzzle for All Breeds Dog

Four different challenges to this Level 3 puzzle. A favorite in this three Golden Retriever puzzle-loving household. Easy to clean & appropriately designated as Level 3 with the variety of solutions. This provides just enough challenge to keep it fun without too much frustration. My dogs have approximately 10-12 puzzles (all levels) that I rotate between them so they don't get bored & quickly clear treats due to repetition making it too easy. This one is definitely a favorite. It takes a little more time than to solve. The lifting lever seems to be the spot that consistently slows progress & makes them think how to work it. The sliding rectangles also have to be solved in an order that creates continued access to find just the right solving sequence. This puzzle seems to be quite durable as compared to others, too.

My dog loves this thing. She's weird about eating her meals, so I keep this toy under where he dishes are and I'll put some kibble in the toy, she'll eat it from there, and then move onto her food, so it's useful in that niche way. It's also great to keep her busy for a few minutes and she really enjoys finding the food. Easy to clean, sturdy, quiet, easy to store.

The best puzzle! I love the different difficulty levels, so that my dogs are excited to approach it and work their way up. One dog still hasn’t been able to figure out the lever to open the compartment, while my second dog hasn’t figured out how to move every single slider. So I think it’s great for any breed of dog! hunter vs burrowing. Easy to put treats in and my dogs go nuts for it. Definitely supervise first time to manage frustration and encourage them, but now I just supervise when they’re about done as they tend to chew the plastic looking for more. Durable between my two dogs and their shredding tendency, I just remove it when they have gotten to a point of no more results. Great to build confidence in a puppy and stimulate the mind! Makes them slow down and think, and engages nose pushing and paw coordination.

This little puzzle helped my dog fight the IVDD blues when on crate rest and I couldn’t be more grateful. Her first puzzle feeder was a bit too easy to we upgraded to this one and it is a great medium level puzzle for her. She’s a pro now but it is still one of her favorites to play around with. There are some teeth marks and slightly chewed sections from her trying to use the mechanics, so if you have a chewer on your hands, this might not be tough enough.

My 2 year old mini Schnoodle loves his treat puzzle. As soon as I fill (he hears and watches) and it only took perhaps 2/3 times of my showing him how to slide. He normally opens all and it teaches him patience! Use once a week.

My dog loves this puzzle and it’s fairly easy to clean!

This puzzle mixes levels. If your dog has already trained to solve similar puzzles & can do Level 2 or 3, then maybe this one is OK. But if your dog is brand new to these puzzles, this one is NOT for you. Your dog will get fed up and lose interest. Second, the plastic is kinda flimsy compared to similar products. There are a few European companies that make mentally stimulating dog puzzles, and they understand the importance of gradually exposing the dog to more and more difficult puzzles. First Level 1, then Level 2, then Level 3, etc. Whoever designed this puzzle just imitated designs from other puzzles without understanding the importance of gradual learning. In fact, this puzzle advertises "three levels in one!" You cannot mix levels on the same puzzle, because your dog doesn't know this compartment is Level 1, that compartment is Level 2, and those other compartments are Level 3 and should be left alone until he's mastered Levels 1 and 2. "Three levels in one" translates to "do not buy for novice dogs." Moreover, this company probably copied some designs without understanding what they are for. The pill boxes, for example, are not just a cover for the treat. You put the treat in the pill box, then the dog has to learnt to slide it over a pit to release the treat, and slide it away to eat the treat. This requires two actions, so it's Level 2 difficulty. When you put two pill boxes in the same track, that increases the difficulty level because the two pill boxes will interfere with one another. Many dogs cannot solve a level higher than 2. This really looks like mindless copying. The plastic is very flimsy compared to the European puzzles. One door broke right away, and it you look at how thin the hinges are, it's really no surprise. The instruction manual tells you to supervise in order to prevent rough play, but this plastic is so flimsy that your supervision won't make a difference. I recommend that you search on Amazon for better puzzles. There is a Swedish company, a German company, and a Danish company that make really good puzzles. They are well-designed, with suitable levels so the dog can learn gradually and not get frustrated. They are very nicely made, and most of them are actually quite affordable. Some are even cheaper than the Chinese knockoffs.

My dachshund absolutely loves this puzzle! It's so much fun to watch him try to find his treats and navigate the obstacles. For the price, you really can't go wrong. One issue we have encountered is that sometimes the pieces get stuck, or the squares may pop off if he moves them around too aggressively. Overall, this is a great puzzle for small dogs. However, I wouldn't recommend it for larger breeds due to its smaller size.

My dog has many puzzles of different skill levels and concepts that she loves to play over and over. This is one of them. Good quality and engages her interest.

Brilliant dog toy. Our little Jack Russell took about 10 mins to get the hang of it with a bit of help and is now obsessed. We used smears of soft cheese and tiny bits of Jacobs Crackers. This will be invaluable for us as we have a new baby coming into our house and wanted a diversion to prevent the jumping and potential scratching. Great fun to watch too.

This item occupies our dog for a good 15-20 minutes. It’s fairly good quality, but has suffered some damage with her using it. The lever no longer works and one of the lids came off. One lid has damage from her teeth, but none of these things rely affects the overall function. We have gotten our money’s worth from this item.

Good puzzle for our small 1 year old cockapoo. Keeps her entertained. She is clever and can do it in 10 minutes. Would definitely recommend for the price.

Great sturdy dog toy. Took a while for our puppy to get the hang of it but that’s a good thing - it keeps her interest! Could be easier to clean but otherwise very happy with this toy. The video was taken first time we used it, she is much quicker now.
