Questions & Answers

8 Customer Questions

is this suitbable for wet food

Is this toy dishwasher safe?

Answer by Chewy • Nov 01, 2023
This toy is not dishwasher safe. It is recommended to hand wash with warm soapy water.

Where is it made?

Answer by Chewy • Jul 25, 2024
All Outward Hound products are designed in Colorado USA. Most are manufactured in China and a selection of their chew products and treats are made here in the USA.

Since the pieces come out of the puzzle, are they small enough that a large breed dog could just swallow them whole?

Answer by Chewy • Nov 19, 2025
This toy is suitable for dogs of all ages and sizes. However, it is important to note that you should not leave the dog alone with the toy, and do not let the dog chew on the game/toy or pieces.

Expose Your Dog's Intelligence

You should buy this for your dog, not to entertain them, not to enrich their lives... But to EXPOSE them for being smarter than they want you to think. My little Cava Tzu, who tries to convince me on a regular basis that he does not know how to sit or use stairs, figured this thing out in like 4 days. He still enjoys it though and it was easier to wash than I expected. Definitely don't leave them alone with it and you may have to help them (try putting the bones in propped up sideways) and cheer them on at first. But anyway, I guess I'll get the next level up for my little manipulator.

I have one cat that can do this puzzle quickly and another who can’t quite get it yet but likes watching the other cat. He snaps the hinges of the boxes off, but they go back on easily. I highly recommend this for smart cats who need to be entertained! I’ve tried other puzzle feeders, but they “hack” them quickly by turning over the puzzle. So far, he’s solved this one the intended way.

Great puzzle for senior dogs

This puzzle toy with hidden treats was a great option for my senior dog. It kept her engaged and mentally stimulated, which I noticed really helped with her alertness and overall activity level. She enjoyed the challenge of finding the treats, and it gave her something fun to focus on without being too physically demanding. I had to file a few spots where the plastic was a little sharper than I liked but that was easy to do with a regular nail file. It was especially good for her as she got older but still needed enrichment. Definitely a great choice for keeping her mind sharp and giving her a rewarding activity. I also like the nonskid feet.

This puzzle has so many hiding places. It’s a higher difficulty level for sure because the middle bones need to be removed (to retrieve the treats underneath) all the way in order for the outer red pieces to slide back and forth to reveal another compartment underneath. The red ones also have flaps that lift up to a middle compartment for treats. Hope this makes sense. Each row of three has 5 hiding places. So, that’s 20 hiding spots all together. Easy to clean, but challenging to dry all the way because of all the flaps and compartments.

My dog failed at a level 1 puzzle, and this one is listed as level 2. I removed the white bones (which another photograph/owner had shown chewed up) so he could focus on sliding and lifting to reach items in the other compartments. It was a great success. When he got frustrated he came and sought reassurance from me, got it and returned to the puzzle.

FUN TO WATCH!

LOVE this. My pup is pretty smart, and enjoyed this enrichment activity. Fits at least 1 cup of kibble, which is what I feed my dog. It was quite fun to watch her

LOVE this. My pup is pretty smart, and enjoyed this enrichment activity. Fits at least 1 cup of kibble, which is what I feed my dog. It was quite fun to watch her take on the puzzle. Silly girl even turned the whole thing upside down to ensure she got all her treats and food out of there! The pieces come off & slide easily and can be put back on for cleaning.

Different levels of fun

My dogs so enjoy this that I just use a few of their usual kibble that is ignored in their bowl. They walk right past it all day, but if this is full, they run

My dogs so enjoy this that I just use a few of their usual kibble that is ignored in their bowl. They walk right past it all day, but if this is full, they run to it. I was nervous my dogs wouldn't figure out how to open the red boxes with lids, but both the old one and the pup figured it out. Despite knowing how, it still takes a bit of effort and they are proud of themselves. If they get aggressive and end up removing a lid, it snaps back onto the red box. The red boxes slide to reveal more below, which is their favorite part. The hardest part is removing the white bone covers. My dogs are 5 pound poodles who treat things delicately. The puppy has dug them out of the spot, but to teach her they remove at all, I put a piece of twine through the hole for them to use as a handle for removal. Once one removed it almost by mistake while digging on the bone, they understood. Now I leave one twine handle and one without. I have only used two of the bones so far to prevent frustration. Sometimes they prefer to dig on the bones for removal, and sometimes rather than removing, one will flip upside down in it's location still covering the food. So far I have rescued them from such a frustration, but I think it would be yet another challenge they would enjoy overcoming and feel proud about. If your dog was a heavy chewer, eventually they would destroy parts, but really, don't heavy chewers destroy most of their toys? And the price is right even if you considered it a consumable toy.

Awesome puzzle toy! "Brute-force" dogs might master this too fast.

A definite favorite in our collection! Sturdy, well-made, and easy to wash on account of the sliding pieces/removable trap doors. This was bought with our 13lbs

A definite favorite in our collection! Sturdy, well-made, and easy to wash on account of the sliding pieces/removable trap doors. This was bought with our 13lbs Berkley in mind - he's a "mini" dachshund that LOVES food and works his hardest to get it. It was easiest to show him the sliding pieces and let him "work out" the rest; the trap doors came easy, after pawing a couple of times, while the bones took a bit longer but was something eventually caught onto as well. For the first few sessions it worked wonderfully, but I presume he realized how much easier it was to "shove" his nose through everything and going back as needed, effectively cutting down his solving time from 5 minutes to 2. To counter this, I now spread less kibble across a higher number of rounds. And per usual, his brother Cocoa learned how to solve it in a similar, albeit more regulated fashion; it can occupy him for up to 7 minutes.

Not durable for chewers

I got this as a way to keep my dog a little busier when I leave for work but he has been able to easily chew through several of the pieces. The lids for the compartments easily snap off and then he chews them apart. I’m sure this is oils be fine if you were supervising them while they use it so you can take the pieces as it comes apart but that just wasn’t my intent when buying.

I was very skeptical about buying this for her as she is rough on toys. She has enjoyed this and is figuring it out. Keeps her busy for about 5 minutes when she's hungry longer when not. She has tried to just flip it over, doesn't work that way Annabelle.
