I started off by letting him slowly learn how each level works, having a day to two on each level. Each level is locked by the one above it, so you have to start at the top, and as you open one level, it releases the next. The slots at the top take some pressure to open, so I don't think this would work for small dogs or the average cat, but because Magnus is a Main coon, he has the power behind his paws to open them. I am really happy with this purchase. It is sturdy, well made and doesn't slip around whilst he is figuring it out.

My dog worked out very quickly how to move product around to expel the treats and the entertainment value was pretty good ( well all 10 seconds of it).As long as it doesn't get wet I should image it will clean well but it doesn't come apart ( that I can see) to do a deep clean so don't put moist treats in!Once he'd emptied it he unfortunately started chewing around the exit holes and caused rough edges to appear within seconds:0Its a shame not as good a quality I had hoped for. Maybe for a dog with no teeth?

Functionality:Lots of different levels of difficulty suitable for challenging even tge smartest of dogs.Entertainment value:I have a shollie (half German shepherd and half border collie - probably the most intelligent breed of dog there is) and i gave her this toy on christmas day, when she was only 2 months old. She figured out the square sliding in seconds, but even at 8 months she hasnt fully mastered the advanced inner circle unlocking slotsSize:Great size, room for lots of treats.

Xmas gift bought for my cat as a step up from level 3 puzzle options which are too easy. She worked out the sides so far, needs to up her game for the centre wheel, and haven't yet used the side blockers. I am pleased she doesn't do this one in a couple of minutes, unfortunately this is aided by the fact the product does not work smoothly, a couple of the squares on one side get stuck and they need my force to slide them along, so there's no way the cat could move them with her paw. I don't know whether it's just my puzzle that has a fault or other people have had this issue?I bought this model because it was recommended by some cat owners but as far as I am concerned the design doesn't entirely work for a cat. I appreciate this is made for dogs therefore they made not have the same issues. I found the whole thing clunky, the middle wheel is also hard to spin with a tendency to stick. My cat doesn't tend to be very forceful which isn't in her favour here. Perhaps bigger cats that tend to be more aggressive with their puzzles might have a different experience?Some squares share a common treat pocket underneath which means the treat will slide from one side to the other at each attempt to get it - perhaps this is meant to add to the "difficulty" - it certainly is frustrating.Cat's claws get caught in the outer plastic edge when trying to get the treat out, half of the time she ends up eating the treat by licking right in the pocket.Some bits of treats get in areas where they are difficult to remove from, making this annoying to clean.

My 7 month old lurcher had this toy for 15 minutes and destroyed it. It is not sturdy and is not worth the money. A very disappointing purchase.

My toy poodle loves it! She will often choose this particular puzzle to play with.She does find it a little difficult to turn the disc in the middle, so bear that in mind for smaller dogs, but it can be removed easily by popping it out underneath.It’s well made and easy to set up. I have a few puzzles from this brand and I’m pleased with all of them.

(Sound removed as to not hear our baby talk to her xD)At first you may need to help show them a little bit just like any training but they will soon learn whats needed to get the treats!This is our Maya and she is about 8 months old here. It used to take her about half an hour to complete the full puzzle but she's a japanese spitz and they're really intelligent so now she can complete the whole thing in about 4 minuets so depending on your dog breed this may not be able to occupy them for hours on end.I will say though it is great stimulation for them, its fun, its also a good way to feed them their dry food slowly and in a creative way.If you dont want them to learn it too fast I would not get it out too often. We used it everyday so thats why they can complete is so 1fast.The actual product is gorgeous, very sturdy, our puppies often claw at it constantly, bite and nuzzle to get the treats and it doesn't have any damage so very very pleased!!

This is not really a heavy toy, but any dog with arthritis will find it difficult to operate properly, as it involves pushing, shoving and overturning it around the floorsWith help from me! Kicking it a little, and overturning it, the dogs had some fun, but bear in mind strong legs or teeth (Or help!). needed, or they quickly get bored with lack of success
