Great to keep the dog busy for longer!
love this product, the 3 layers takes the dog ages to get through as they all spin round too. easy to clean as they all unclip and i just pop in the dishwasher. good spaced gaps for wet products but also to squeeze treats into. good quality, long lasting and hard plastic so my dog doesn't chew through it, but also cant due to the way it spins. would buy again.

Puppy loved it
4 month puppy enjoyed it but chewed one of the bones quite quickly and it now doesn’t sit flat. It takes him about 4-5 minutes to find all of the treats. Haven’t tried freezing it yet though

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!

Large size but fun for dogs
I have 2 wiry dachshund standard and a bichon, the daschunds are a year old. This toy they really get excited about, you can use the treat ball that comes with it, or just fill it with different treats. I fill it with different things and they will play with it until empty. Great for noses to keep the brain active . Easy to disenfect, robust for my dogs, great value, seems to be lasting well where others have broken quickly

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.

Brilliant, keeps my pup amused and entertained
My pup is an avid fan, and collector, of the Nina Ottosson Outward Hound range, they have been designed and made with care, precision, and my pup's needs in mind. Being both sturdy and safe, you can really tell the difference between these and cheaper, less robust products. This is easy to fill with treats, and keeps him entertained, until it's empty of course, at which point I am promptly instructed to refill it. I highly recommend this as a treat dispenser.

Good for cats
Bought for my cats and it worked well. Center puzzle is quite difficult for them to figure out as it has two steps but the design is good. They figured out the outside quite quickly but took longer for the inside. Spinning the wheel came quite natural but adding the push took a little longer.When teaching, I'd recommend starting out by putting treats underneath the wheel (as there is a bit of space) to get them started with spinning it in the first place.

Phenomenal product
My 8 week old pup loves this item.. she is thrilled when she has removed the bones and nearly forgets about the treats underneath.Excellent to keep her busy while making dinner or doing chores.Would highly recommend.

Easy way to stimulate your dog
Our dogs had never used An item like this, except for a snuffle mat. But it only took them a minute or two to understand that there is a treat in some of them. I suggest starting off with a treat under everyone until they get used to understanding what they’re supposed to do then you can try putting different types of treats in each one or only putting treats in a few at a time. This does not frustrate them at all because we use things that are highly scented like puperonies, pieces of beggin strips, peanut butter, a little canned tuna etc.i got this During a sale, because i wasnt sure my dogs would like it. But i quickly bought another model from same company so both dogs could do it at same time.I really appreciate that you can order replacement pieces in case you lose one or if your dog chews one up. This Was a big selling point for me. One of my dogs doesnt have many teeth left, so he uses his nose to push the pieces up. The plastic bones have a little curved part at the end which their noses use to push up on.I would buy this again for other pet parent friends, and i will buy other models of higher leves of difficulty too.These wash up easily

Produto ótimo e fácil para cachorro filhote iniciando nos jogos interativos.. a única desvantagem é que não abre para lavar e realizar higiene adequada !
