Lickin’ Layers of Enrichment

Designed for lick-loving pups, these spinning puzzle feeders help dogs channel energy, slow down mealtime, and soothe stress. Three puzzle sizes, varied challenge levels— same mentally enriching reward!

This puzzle works well. It is sturdy, but I do pick it up after he has finished it. My 9 month old border collie was able to figure it out very quickly. I put other treats in it to keep him interested. My only complaint is that it is extreemly hard to take apart to wash. The plastic part you have to squeeze to lift off each tray is so hard. I am afraid it will crack off and the puzzle will be uselsss. Or maybe I could just use the trays as lick mats.

This slow feeder was great for our dog and I was really excited. Unfortunately, the first time I used it it slipped out of my hand and hit the floor. The internal piece holding the three layers together broke and it is no longer useable. I was disappointed in the quality of the design.

But I didn’t! I was throughly impressed. It’s just enough engagement for one or multiple pups, and I like that it’s dishwasher safe. It’s a little difficult to pince the clip to release the wheels but to me it’s a sign of quality. I liked it so much I bought an extra for a friend

This feeder slowed my puppy down and he was able to adapt to spinning the levels around to get his food but it is a pain to fill with dry food. Dry food tends to bounce off all the edges so I spent more time cleaning up than ever. It's also a bit cumbersome to pull apart in order to run through the dishwasher. There are other slow feeders that are easier to use for the owner!

I buy the freeze dried liver treats and cut them up into fours to place them inside this toy. My husky is very good at it. My shepard mix is not and throws it around to get the treats out so it has a few bite marks on it. It is very easy to disassemble and cleans up very well in the dishwasher.

Speed-Eater, No More

I got this for my large doggo who tends to eat too fast. Tried the tennis ball trick, and that didn't work, so I figured it was time for a bowl. He's going to be 14 this year, and he has enough digestive issues without inhaling his food. He solved the spinning puzzle very quickly (he knew there were still crumbs hiding in those layers). Does it help him chew his food? Absolutely not, but he inhales it slower. Did I misjudge the size I needed? Absolutely, it just BARELY holds his full food serving. He's not very active at his age, and he isn't much of a "toy" dog, so this helps work his brain while helping with his tummy issues.

Ideal for freezing dinner in

I can spread my poodle's kibbles throughout every layer, then pour kefir (or watered down yogurt) in it, freeze it, and it takes her about an hour to finish. Great

I can spread my poodle's kibbles throughout every layer, then pour kefir (or watered down yogurt) in it, freeze it, and it takes her about an hour to finish. Great for days when she isn't able to get as much mental stimulation.

My 6 month old Newfoundland not only out smarted the tiers, but dismantled it and chewed it up within 15 minutes. Could not be reassembled so had to throw it away after one short use.

It keeps my dog mentally stimulated for about 10 minutes while eating. It’s a little time consuming to fill, as compared to filling other feeding toys. I add it to my dog’s rotation of toys/slow feeders about once a week

Chewy wanted me to mail back this big broken plastic thing. I was insulted. So he then issued a replacement. It works ok. Cheaply made no wonder it broke in shipment
