Dog puzzle toys

[Birker2020]

Anyone have puzzle toys for their dogs?

I bought the blue one about a month ago and then on Amazon Prime Day I bought her an 'advanced' one, with three levels of intelligence. The 1st level to slide open the four little trays, the second level is to slide open the trays with a circle slider blocking it from opening so the dog has to understand a circle needs to be slid so they open!

The third stage to drop the treats into holes by moving the circles over the holes! You can make that 3rd level harder by putting little lids on the chute the treat rolls down for the dog to lift up to get a treat!

So the blue puzzle toy she cracked in about half an hour after her first attempt and it can take her about four mins to complete now. But the yellow and orange game which is much harder she can complete in around 2 minutes! It took her about ten mins the first time. She's a very clever dog.

Mine love them, my older boy who is renowned for being a bit dim in a sweet way, gets the straight away. My younger super smart one, so clever he outsmart me on a regular basis just tries to cheat

I timed filling them with treats
Then I timed Otto opening them
Otto is faster

I have the blue one. He is fed dry food so sometimes I pop 2 or 3 pieces in each try and have an hour's peace

I have often recommended Nina Ottosson's brain training dog toys on HHO, and own a few myself. Or dog puzzle toys as you call them. But I bought almost all of mine when she barely had been starting to sell her brain training dog toys outside of Sweden, almost all her toys was only available in wood (or wood composite to be precise), and more basic than some of them are today.

Of the wood toys I have, my bitches favourite was probably the Dog Tornado

But most of my bitches also really enjoyed the simple, basic Qulan, or Treat Tumble as I think it's been renamed to. I have both the Large, and Small size

The black and white thing above is also from Nina Ottosson, but I'm not sure that they sell them anymore, it's name is Dog Treat Trapper Bed. Every flap can be lifted, and have treats put under them.

The smallest inner square is about 30x30 cm

I had good help with the measuring

The largest black bottom square is about 1 metre 10 cm each side, and this dog toy is apparently also very suitable as a cat bed.

They have that Tornado toy on Ebay, albeit a much more advanced version. I will get her one of those, thanks!
