Highlighted Reviews

— Jaylene

"I keeps her busy for a little while."

— Cristine

"My dog isn't an aggressive chewer at all but this toy lasted under 1 minute to become ruined. The fabric for the pouches is not sturdy enough, nor is the stitching. What a disappointment from Outward Hound. "

Bottom Line

Dogs enjoy the puzzle element, but the low durability makes it a poor long-term investment.
