Brilliant puzzle to keep your pet entertained

The media could not be loaded. Cookie loves her puzzle!! We will be buying the next stage puzzle for sure, definitely recommended 👌

Durable, entertaining for clever cats, keeps them occupied

This puzzle is amazing. I bought the one with red boxes and white bones inbetween, level 2. It's perfect for my clever cat, and he's ready for the next level!He's had around 7 different puzzles over the last few years, but this one has kept him occupied the longest. Highly recommend.

Great little brain exercise!

The media could not be loaded. My dog went from 4.5 minutes to 1.5 minutes on third go. Was nice seeing how she figured that it was easier to flip the lids with her nose rather than trying to use her paw. Very easy to clean. I only gave a 4 for sturdiness because on of the lids came off (paw using). Howeve, it did not break and was easily put back on.

Doggy fun.

My dog loves this therefore I love it. Well made and easy to clean.

Not sure if this is testing the dog's intelligence or his owner's!

1) Product specification. Bought the green, circular toy with sliding cups and fishtails and a rotating central disc to cover the holes. Packaging says that you can lock the disc with the fishtails, but... you can't - it still spins freely with the fishtails in any position - but you can lock it if you leave a cup inside the one notch on the disc. So maybe that's what they meant, otherwise, the product isn't being manufactured to proper specifications!2) Robustness. Dog is a border collie, so I bought this one even though we haven't tried any of the other puzzles, because reviews said collies solved those within minutes (which I'd expect... they're very clever dogs). Possibly I over-estimated his skill, but he isn't stupid, he just knows that if I let him, he could lever the central disc off with his teeth and get at the treats that way... So you definitely should not leave your dog alone with this puzzle for even a second! Also it wouldn't be great as a training tool, because if your dog isn't already obedient to being called off, it will wreck it within seconds. But it's a nice little diversion.3) Treat extraction. I used very small treats at first (because I don't want to overfeed him) but he discovered immediately that he can curl his tongue right under the edge of the disc and extract them that way, which would be the same for peanut butter, so I advise that it works better with larger treats! Also don't use little flat disc treats because they can get stuck in the groove that runs around below the disc and require extraction with a spoon handle.4) Puzzle solution. Putting treats under the cups so they have to be slid over the holes works well, although I'm not sure if he's actually worked that out or it just happens naturally as he snuffles for the treats. The fishtails are free-spinning at all points but do need to be moved out of the way to uncover the outer treat holes, so they add a little extra challenge. Turning the central disc is so far proving a major challenge. It's a little stiff, and he wants to use his nose and tongue rather than his paws, so I think that might be causing some of the trouble, but he also clearly doesn't understand what he has to do - yet. I'm hopeful we'll get there eventually though, and at least it means he hasn't solved the whole puzzle at once!Overall, the puzzle is well made (apart from the odd inability to lock the central wheel the way it describes) and sturdy, except that the average dog's jaws can get through marrowbones, so 'sturdy' does not equate to 'indestructible' and (I repeat) you really must not leave your dog alone with this, like the packaging warns. It's a bit of a faff to wash clean, because of all the sliding parts, but it does rinse and drain well.Dog loves it - well, he loves finding the treats - to be honest I think he'd have just as much fun, and use about as much brainpower, hunting for treats under upturned cups like in the 'find the lady' street hustler trick, so whether we've wasted our money remains to be seen; if he can just work out what's required to move that central wheel! (To be fair to my dog, he is medicated for epilepsy and probably stoned out of his gourd half the time, which doesn't help.) So it's not a terrible product... but I'm less satisfied with it than I'd hoped. I think I should probably use it daily to help him learn. You could use it more often if your dog eats kibble (just use some of his daily food ration) but mine has rice for dietary purposes so kibble is out.

My picky Pomeranian loves it!

Firstly, for those considering to buy the tornado, this feels like a premium product, it's sturdy, it's bigger than expected, it doesn't have that weird Chinese factory smell, it comes pre-assembled, so easy to start using and as you can see we're huge fans of their products!So build quality:No scratches yet, I'd say great durability! My dog is small, but destructive, he hasn't chewed on or broken one of these toys (yet anyway). But as far as this model goes, I think it would be good, even for big destructive dogs (always supervise though, and you know your dog best). The white bones might be enticing for a chewer. The bones are replaceable, but your dog is not. So bear that in mind.(Also regarding the bones, if you have the Brick puzzle, you automatically have 4 extra bones to use in this puzzle too. They're exactly the same, tried and tested 👍)My dog asked for his food to be put in this specific puzzle (uses buttons), which I thought was an accidental button press, but he loved it! He's the pickiest dog with so many food allergies, but he loved eating his food from this puzzle it seems!Cleaning:I'll use soap and water to wash the food out of this one, but usually for dry treats I just use an antibacterial wipe, seems to work brilliantly, no residue or stickiness.A note on boredom:Our dogs are smart, when they get the hang of a puzzle, they'll speed through it. So if you want to use it to keep them busy, maybe buy a few and alternate or use them together.TL;DR: worth every penny!

took a while

Took or dog a while to figure out for a change and he enjoys playing with it.

Good but dog works it out after a while and then it's easy.

This is good as it makes the diff think and slows down eating, but after a few days the dog has worked it out and it's then less of a puzzle and more of a brake on him eating too fast. Still use it a lot though so if recommend it
