Bought one for each of my dogs – a Xoloitzcuintle, a Border Collie, a Lab mix & a Great Pyrenees. Each one has enjoyed the toy so much, caught onto it right away, chased and pushed it all over the room. Meal time has gone from 3 minutes flat to more than 30. They are very excited & having a lot of fun. I was concerned there may be trouble with the size of kibble they have (we feed Purina Pro Plan) but the kibble fits easily in the filling portion & comes out with ease, but not so easily to be counterproductive. We tried leaving the tops open on 2 & closed the tops on the other 2. The open top extended the feeding time at least another 10 minutes. My dogs are loving these so much that my dog loving besties are now getting these for Christmas. Great product!

Great food toy
This is our favorite food dispensing toy. Once set up to your size kibble and your dog’s skill level, this toy is quick and easy to use. I have a 70 pound dog and the larger size works well.How to use it: The top screws off. There is a sliding door between the upper compartment and the larger, weighted bottom compartment. There is also a sliding door between the bottom compartment and the outside world. It takes a bit of trial and error to adjust these doors. The doors do stay exactly where you set them. By this I mean they don’t open or close unintentionally when the toy is being used. You put food in the small top compartment and screw the top on. I have never had the top come loose. When your dog pushes the toy, it bobs around, causing the kibble to fall, piece by piece, into the bottom part through the upper slide door. The kibble that makes it to the bottom part eventually finds the slide door on the bottom and falls out onto the floor, rewarding your dog for their hard work.A few comments:The toy is hard plastic. This makes it noisy when used on hard surface floors.Your dog will want to slam his paw on the toy to get it to bob around. Your dogs nails would likely scratch your floor if it is wood.My dog is not a chewer. He is a greyhound so does not have a large mouth. If I had a dog who is a power chewer, I would carefully monitor him with this toy. The hard plastic is pretty thick, but if cracked it could cause damage to the dog and worse if pieces are swallowed.For some strange reason, the top portion only holds about 1/4 cup of food. But refilling it is quick and easy.I will say that our Nina Ottosson toy is probably more entertaining for our dog, but it takes a lot longer to set up and requires closer supervision.We loved this toy so much we bought two for our only dog… Seriously, you don’t need two — unless your dog is like ours and manages to hide this 10 inch tall toy somewhere and convinces you it has magically disappeared so you need to buy him a new one. Then once you get the second one, the first magically reappears.

My sister-in-law lent us hers for a couple months, it was great so we had to buy our own. Kong has one a little smaller, but it’s single port and it’s not adjustable. This one has two fully adjustable ports. It’s a lot heavier and larger than the Kong, it actually bangs around enough to turn on the “knock” oven light in our LG stove – but I don’t really see this as a problem. You can put any size kibble in there and adjust the ports to whatever difficulty level you choose which is awesome. If the dog is being particularly annoying, we close the port to absolute minimum size so it takes him a while to get it all out as a sort of gentle punishment. If we want to reward, we open the port wider so food comes out easier. It’s made up of a very soft plastic, so it gouges really easily when the dog bites it or carries it around in his mouth unfortunately. Ours has become a bit raggedy looking already a few days later. Does not affect performance or pet satisfaction at all so we can live with it. Structurally it’s very strong and solid, it may get marred up but I cannot see it ever breaking. One of our best dog toy investments.

I was looking for a food dispenser toy as a boredom breaker for my working cocker spaniel and as a method of making him ‘work’ for his food to help manage his waistline! I’ve had various types before but they usually don’t get used, either because they dispense food too easily and only last a few minutes each time, are flimsy and break, or are too difficult and he gets bored trying with no reward. This one is great; a good size and really robust, and the weighting combined with the ability to vary the size of the dispensing hole means it’s just difficult enough without being too difficult. I put his kibble in it each evening, along with a few pieces of treats to make it even more interesting, and he spends a good half hour pushing it around till it’s empty. It really keeps his attention and he looks forward to it each day; he knows when it’s time and gets very excited waiting while I fill it! By the time it’s empty he’s ready for a sleep, so it definitely tires him out mentally and physically. As some other reviews say, it takes a few minutes to get the kibble and treats fed into the hole to fill it, but it’s a very minor niggle and certainly wouldn’t put me off buying it. Definitely well worth the money- if you’re looking for a food dispenser toy for any reason, I’d highly recommend trying this one.

Ein perfektes Hunde Spielzeug. Extrem Robust also auch was für kräftige Hunde wie meinem. Die Lautstärke ist zu bedenken. In einem mehr Familienhaus eher nicht zu empfehlen und auch nicht auf empfindlichen Böden. Jedoch kann das Spielzeug auch im Garten auf Terrassen und überall perfekt verwendet werden. Meiner bekommt es wenn er mal alleine ist zur Ablenkung und Beschäftigung.
