    This is a great mental stimulation toy
    Purchased this for our GSD puppy and it’s been really great so far. She’s a typical 9 week old puppy-huge amounts of energy, chews A LOT, and this really engages her.I originally wanted to order the large but only the small was in stock. I’m glad it was because the size is better than I was expecting and it’s a lower price point. It doesn’t seem small at all, more a medium. Check measurements if you’re concerned. The small size is perfect IMO.I like how you can adjust the opening to increase/decrease the difficulty. I have given it to our pup to play with while she’s out of her crate and I’m working on something, that way I can adjust/help her if she gets frustrated. I haven’t put an entire meal in it, so she usually has it completed it about 10 minutes. It doesn’t keep her busy for a really lengthy time but for her age, the amount of stimulation in one setting is great. As she gets older, I’m hoping I can gradually increase the difficulty and she can play with it longer, but we will have to wait and see.It’s a really tough plastic and surprising heavy for a toy, but it needs to be weighted in the bottom to achieve the bobble function. It’s louder than other toys and if you’ve got a rough pup, it might do some damage if it were tossed.I cannot speak to it use in a crate because I haven’t tried it for that. To be honest, I probably won’t because I want our puppy to view her crate as a relaxing place and this toy gets her stimulated and as mentioned, she can get frustrated if it gets too hard.I saw some reviewers say their dogs chewed it apart. I think that depends a lot on age and when you’re allowing it to be used (supervised vs unsupervised). Our pup gets really frustrated when it’s empty, so I make sure I’m around and can hear that she’s gotten all the kibble out. Then I remove it and give her something else to do. If she were allowed to have the toy once it was empty, I could see her maybe trying to chew it out of frustration. It’s big enough that at her age, I doubt she would be able to chew the tough plastic. Give her another few weeks and that might change, but I won’t allow her to have access to it without supervision to avoid her getting frustrated.Overall I think if you are looking for something to keep your pup busy and content for a long time, I would look for something else. I feel like interactive feeders like this are great for what they do but once it’s done giving treats or kibble, a dog could become frustrated and chew on it. If you’re looking for something engaging that can be used periodically to stimulate and challenge your pup, I would highly recommend this one!

    Worth the wait
    I got this when my puppy was about 3 months and it was a disaster. He LOVED it but he expressed his love through barking at it in an attempt to? I don’t know- get it to release the kibble faster? No ide but it was LOUD and not my favorite.That said, reviews were great and build quality was solid so instead of returning or leaving a 2 start review I shelved it for a few months.Our puppy is now 8 months (and rarely barks). I pulled this out again for a round 2 and it was a MUCH better experience. He’s still super excited but isn’t barking at it. You can fit about a 1/4 a cup of kibble in the top section so it’s usefull as a slow feeder and keeps him entertained for about 10 minutes.Only thing I’d mention is that this thing weighs like 3 pounds so it makes a LOT of noise rolling around on a hard surface. Definitely recommend using it in a carpeted room. We have wood floors and throw rugs and the dog doesn’t understand the concept of keeping it on the rug…. so it is pretty noisy. Sorry downstairs neighbors!!

    Keeps My Dogs Entertained and Happy!
    I’ve tried several puzzle toys for my dogs, but this toy is by far the best. My dogs absolutely love it! It’s incredibly durable, which is perfect since they’re quite the chewers. The best part? It keeps them busy for at least an hour each time. This toy not only provides mental stimulation but also helps in slowing down their eating pace when I load it with treats. The adjustable difficulty levels are a fantastic feature, allowing me to match the challenge to their skill level. If you’re looking for a toy that will both entertain your pet and promote healthy habits, this is the one to get! Highly recommend.

    Great treat dispensing toy
    My wife works from home and our two large dogs occasionally get bored and want her attention. This sometimes occurs during conference calls or new client meetings, not ideal!! So I picked up a couple interactive dog toys and this was by far the best. You fill the top with kibble or treats, there are two adjustable openings for various sized treats, and they knock it around and eat the treats!! The plastic is thick and durable. The dogs love trying to get the kibble out and keeps them entertained. My biggest complaint is the internal adjustment will sometimes slide open or closed while the dogs are playing. If it closes, it cuts off their supply! Additionally, I couldn’t find the larger size so I think this is a medium?? I was concerned about the size because my dogs are big… Italian mastiff mix and Great Dane/Great Pyrenees mix. This one is fine and is holding up great so long as I don’t allow them to use it as a chew toy.

    Best dog toy/stimulation ever!
    My dog loves this thing. Going on 4 years now and the thing is still sturdy and going strong.I use this with a handful of low cal training treats to distract my dog while I leave for work. It distracts her long enough for me to leave and when I check on her she’s cuddled up with it.The thing is heavy and makes quite a bit of noise on hard floors so not great if someone is below you.My dog has a knack for picking it up by the little treat hole with her teeth and carrying it around. Not ideal bc it’s so heavy but try telling her that.It makes her happy so I’m happy.

    Fácil de usar e limpar e faz menos barulhos que as bolas ocas que se acha com facilidade por aí. É bom pois permite ajustar o tamanho da portinha e consequentemente deixar mais ou menos difícil. Mexe aleatoriamente. Muito legal pra cachorro entediado ou que come muito rápido.

    Mi perrita ha utilizado éste juguete y se divierte con él.En ocasiones lo usa como costal de box, le pega solo para ver si se regresa y que no le pegue…Desahoga ansiedad por estar encerrada en el departamento.

    An excellent interactive dog toy that stands out from all others we’ve tried (many snuffle mats, ball feeders and Kongs). The adjustable difficulty settings works well – when set to maximum difficulty, it keeps our dog engaged for up to 30 minutes. The small size holds between 40-60g of kibble dependant on what difficult you have it on.Pros:- The adjustable difficulty makes it versatile for different dogs and keeps them challenged, providing up to 30 minutes of entertainment at the highest setting- Extremely durable construction with strong plastic and good weight, ensuring it can handle regular useSimple but effective design that dogs understand quickly while still maintaining interestCons:- Food loading can be tricky – would benefit from including a funnel- Difficulty adjustment sliders are quite stiff to move, though they stay securely in placeMultiple friends have bought this toy on our recommendation and agree it’s worth the investment. 5/5 stars – would absolutely recommend for any dog owner looking for a good feeder toy!

    Excellent jouet, mes chiens l’ont immédiatement adopté et l’adorent! Il y a une trappe rotative en dessous du bouchon jaune, qui permet de le remplir avec de petites croquettes et une trappe sur le côté, dont l’ouverture est ajustable pour permettre aux croquettes de tomber. Mes chiens le poussent avec leur pattes et le bout du nez dans toute la pièce et jouent avec un plaisir évident, je ne regrette pas mon achat.

    Ho comprato qualche anno fa questo gioco. La mia cagnolina lo adora, lo cerca ogni giorno ed è ancora perfetto. Molto consigliato!
