Poker Box 2

Our dog loves his windmill. It’s easily one of his favorite toys. All you have to do is put treats in the windmill fans and your dog has to spin the windmill with their paws or nose to free the treat. It keeps our dog busy for easily 10 minutes sometimes. It gets his brain working, which I love. It’s also nice because it gives him something to do if I need to just relax for a minute, or when he’s just passing by. It’s super easy to use. You just unwind the tops of the windmills to put the treats in.

So it took me awhile to research which puzzle would be good for my 11 year old havanese schnauzer mix. I choose this one because it has a few different levels that you can start with a few then add the harder and keep going till they get it all. I first just had him get the treats from all the spinners without the stoppers or the top cones on it and then I added 1 cone until he figured it out and add the other cones till he got that and finally added all the big cones which took a bit of time to figure out. He still loves it even though he has figured it all out and it's great for him to be entertained and work for his treats. I sometimes don't do the whole thing which is a nice to not have to do it all. I recommend for sure, watching them every time you put the puzzle down. They not only like the encouragement but they enjoy you being involved. Also, sometimes they get frustrated and will paw or try and pick the whole thing up so you want to be there to gently help them on those days. I tell my Mookie to settle down and start again after I show him what he needs to do and he works it out. It also easily goes in the dishwasher. I wash it once a week. He is one of those dogs that use the buttons to talk so he asks for his puzzle at least once a day. I will do it twice a day only then I tell him all done puzzle, he always responds with a settle and I tell him good boy. And just for all those doubters out there with teaching older dogs new things, its a MUST! As dogs get older, just like us, things are changing with them like: can't hear as well, sight dims, bones ache etc. It's super important to keep training and encouraging your older pets with new trick so it builds their self-esteem so they don't become aggressive when frustrated or scared from these changes. It's scary for a dig to not be able to hear or see like he used to so help them so adjust to these changes gently and with love. When their hearing starts to go, it's the voices part that they struggle with but the noises like clapping, whistling, beeping etc still work great . This toy is definitely one of the best out there! I highly recommend it because of the stages it allows your pup to learn easily.

We have two bostons. Our oldest and biggest is a bit of a brute and she attempts to break her puzzles so we have to choose durable options for her. This puzzle is NOT durable enough for her. She attempted to chew and claw it and I could tell the puzzle would not last much longer if I didn't pull it away from her. She left chew and claw marks on it easily. Nothing wrong with the puzzle that we've seen, everything works as intended BUT if your dog is a little rough on her toys, this may not survive 😅 Now our smallest loves it! She took some time to learn each puzzle but did eventually learn how to work them all and still enjoys working them out. I would definitely purchase this seller's other puzzle toy options based on our experience with this one but advise this is a puzzle for smaller and/or gentler pups. Relatively easy to clean as long as you're using small dry treats and not peanut butter or say, squeeze cheese. A chewer could definitely do some very quick damage to this so be warned there.

My dog figured it all out in @15 minutes 1st time. After that he went through it in @3 mins. The cut out for sliding handle isn't placed properly, so that a dog can get the drawer out with his nose or nails in the extra space the over sized/wrongly placed slot has. Used electrical tape to cover up the back part of it to prevent that. Also the drawer does not come out all the way (to access the 2nd treat well) by using the handle as I believe it was intended. In addition, when drawer is fully in, part of the 2nd treat well is exposed from the slot gap. The knots on the other drawer hung down on the underside causing the drawer to not close properly. Had to cut the tails off the knots & tape in place. And, as with all of the Trixie puzzle toys, there are never enough cups to cover all the treat wells. To fully utilize the puzzle, there should be 8, not 2. I found that I could take plastic water/soda bottle tops & cosmetic tops (I drilled holes into their tops) to completely fill the whole puzzle. I also used a pen cap to insert in the gap between the sliding handle & slot (so dog has to remove 1st before can use slide handle). With these additions it has been made as hard as possible (see photo). My dogs time is now @4 mins, which means it is still too easy! Based on Trixie's levels, he'd need at least a 6 or 7 to give his mind a bit of a challenge. Unfortunately Trixie doesn't make anything higher than a Level 3 game even though they say you can make them Level 4 by using the cups in between the sliders. Obviously, we did that when we added our extra 'cups' & I don't think it ups the level at all. The only other game they have which could be slightly harder is the Move 2 Win, but that's only a larger version of this game with extra drawers & more ways to move the slider handle. It's also @$30 which I think is way to much for what it is! This Mini Mover did stick to the floor fairly well, but you definitely have to supervise your pet while using, otherwise they could chew up the parts, but these games are designed to be a bonding experience as well as tease a pet's mind. They are not meant to be games you just set up & walk away from. If that's what you want, get a Pet Zone 3" IQ Snack ball! This toy is sized right for small dogs & would be fun for dogs that aren't super smart. My Mother's hyper active terrier would definitely take at least 1/2hr or more to figure it out & that would be with constant prompting. My dog, shown in photo is a 12 lb Chi-Mix. We also own the Dogit Mind Games 3 in 1, which is much better priced, but was also way too easy for my dog. Like all these toys it doesn't come w/enough cups. I added more caps from various products (& again drilled holes in top) but still too easy for my dog. He can go through each of the 3 set ups in @30-45 seconds. Mom's dog took 20 minutes with constant examples before finally getting. He's only played it once, so I'm sure he'd get better w/repetition. We also have the Outward Hound Paw Mini, which is perfectly sized for little dogs. This at least, does come with the full amount of cups. It's a simple remove the cup game, but they mostly have to use their mouths to do it. The only game my dog had difficulty with was the large size version of this game & that's only because he couldn't fit his mouth around the cups. We use the cups from the Paw Mini to play a dog version of the "shell" game, which is fun, but he guesses right 1st try @90% of the time. In summary, I haven't been able to find a game that will actually challenge my dog's intellect (I was told by a professional trainer my dog is exceptionally smart). For average dogs it'd probably work better. Hope this review helps!

notre chiot adore, il le redécouvre à chaque utilisation utilisation quotidienne et commence a connaître le système, cela l'occupe quelques minutes facilement.

Un juguete relativamente simple, pero que a mi mascota le parece muy entretenido. Fácil de ensamblar, fácil de usar, fácil de limpiar.

A mi perra le encantan los retos mentales, ama este juguete

My dog really enjoys it and slows dog her eating
