TRAINING WITH TREATS: The Nina Ottosson Dog Smart is an entry level dog game that challenges your dog to discover treats through problem solving and exciting hidden rewards!
MIXING IT UP: The bones in this dog puzzle can be arranged to be flush with the board or elevated for different levels of challenges. When the bones (puzzle pieces) on the Dog Smart are flush with the board, your dog will learn to paw and nuzzle at the pieces differently than when the bones are elevated and more easily removeable.
HOLDS FOOD: The Dog Smart is great for treating and feeding your dog because it holds wet or dry kibble!
LEVEL 1 CHALLENGE: Great for introducing your dog to treat training games, this Level 1 dog game gets your dog interested in games and prepares your pup for more exciting and challenging puzzles to come.
HOW TO PLAY: Place treats or kibble in compartments of base. Cover treat compartments with bones. The more compartments that are covered, the harder the game will be. Let the games begin! Show your dog where the treats are and watch them find the tasty reward! Dogs are smarter than you think. Sometimes we just need to teach them! Leave some compartments uncovered for your dog to gain interest.
PLAY TOGETHER: Nina Ottosson Dog Puzzle Games focus on challenging your dog’s brain. Supervise when playing, and don´t let the dog chew on the toy. Teach your dog how to use the puzzle, play and have fun together. Put away until next time.
EXERCISE FOR MIND AND BODY: Dog games and dog puzzles by Nina Ottosson challenge your dog’s problem solving skills while enhancing your dog’s mental stimulation through fun and play.
EASY TO CLEAN: To wash your dog’s DogSmart, simply remove all treats/kibble and hand wash with warm soapy water, rinse clean and dry. Fill again for more fun!
What is this made of, plastic, pressed board?
It’s plastic. Also very durable. I have an 80 lb American bulldog. He likes to lift the flaps, grab a hold of the flaps, and “throw” the game to the side. He learned most treats fall out that way. Lazy cheater. Regardless, the game is still fully in tact, and flaps easily pop back on. Some of the white bone middle covers have been chewed on, and still fit perfectly for intended use.
Will this work for a large dog or are the moving parts too small? For reference my dog is over 80 lbs. Thanks!
Hi, I have a 78# greyhound, and this is one of his favorite toys. He gets part of his kibble ration in one of these every day. Mostly, he uses his nose to move the small parts around, but he does sometimes use his paw to rotate the large circle in the middle. I hope this info helps!
I have an “extremely aggressive chewer”. Will this hold up?
This product is a treat puzzle and not a chew toy. It is not meant to be chewed, and we recommend supervised use only. No.. it is not durable enough for an aggressive chewer if he/she is doing this puzzle unsupervised.
Is this toy dishwasher safe? This product is not dishwasher safe. We recommend washing it with warm soapy running water and rinsing thoroughly. If you have any additional questions please let us know! My little maltese is very smart. Most doggie puzzles but he solves in about 1 minute!! Looking for something very challenging. How hard is this one? Hello! We offer 3 levels of Games - Level 1: Easy, Level 2: Intermediate, Level 3: Advanced. This is a Level 3 Game and considered advanced because the dog must complete a series of steps to get the treat rewards. You can start easier with this game by not locking the blue pieces into place, making it easier for the dog to side them around and find the rewards. Once they get better at it, you can increase the difficulty by locking the blue pieces into place with the white locks. The dog will need to pull the lock out in order to move the blue top pieces and uncover the treats. You can vary the difficulty for your Maltese! If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact our Customer Care Team How many uneven bone pieces come with this puzzle? This item comes with 3 bones, one for each level.
It is actually pretty challenging for the dog if you know how to fill it. You can put the treats through the holes in the knobs, and when the dog pushes the knob over the round dents, the treat will fall in. So this is actually a multi-step puzzle:
Step 1: push the "wings" out of the way
Step 2: push the knobs over the dent, so the treat will fall into the dent
Step 3: push the knob back to its original position, so it no longer blocks the dent.
Step 4: fish out the treat
Step 5: repeat 7 times, because that's how many knobs there are.
Occasionally a neighboring wing will also get in the way of trying to move one of the knobs, which adds the extra challenge of figuring out why the knob isn't moving, and solving that problem!
It's great!
