This is a dog food dispenser puzzle toy with many functions and play ways. It uses a new design concept that combines intellectual development with slow feeding. It allows the dog's body and brain to work at the same time to promote his intellectual development while receiving food rewards. The adjustable leak hole and the internal food barrier posts not only allow the owner to adjust the amount and difficulty of the food dispensing, but also slow down the eating speed of the dog to ensure his gastrointestinal health.
Before producing this toy, we studied the existing food dispenser toys on the market, and adjusted our design many times according to the users’ feedbacks. Eventually we made our product into a food dispenser puzzle toy with slow feeding and entertainment functions. We designed two adjustable food leak holes for the toy, which is a perfect upgrade. Traditional toys have only one leak hole and can't adjust the food dispensing speed, but our toy not only increased the fun but also make the difficulty and speed of food dispensing adjustable. It is a toy that can really make dogs smarter and healthier during playtime. In addition, we have also improved its `appearance. Most of the food dispenser toys in the market are soft and easy to be bitten by dogs. Owners need to change toys for their dogs frequently, which greatly increased their expenditure on toys. In order to make the product more cost-effective, we design the toy into a rounded shape with a hard shell, using the bite-resistant and wear-resistant materials. So, it can prevent the dog from chewing up the toy, and prolong its service life. This toy not only makes the dog happy, but also helps the owner save money on pet toys.
In order to increase the fun in dogs playing, this toy adopted a "tumbler" design, which allows the toy to wobble to all directions without tipping over, no matter how the dog fidgets with it. This design only allows the dog to play more safely, but also stimulates his curiosity and the desire to win, making him unwilling to stop playing with the toy. The built-in self-balancing system makes the toy shake only when it is touched by external forces. It doesn’t need electric power to drive the toy. This energy-saving and design also ensures that the toy can be used for a long time. The dog only needs to touch the toy with his paws or nose, and the tumbler toy will shake. Regular use of this toy not only helps the dog to pass boredom, but also eases anxious mood.
Throughout the development of pet toys over the years, we can find that toys that allow pets to gain rewards through play have always been the most popular products in the market. Cesar Millan's in his work "Short Guide to a Happy Dog" also mentioned that by rewarding dogs, they will gradually ignore their instincts and become willing to do what we want them to. This provides information to dogs’ limbic system by stimulating their sense of smell and taste, thus improving their memory function, allowing them to better understand their connection to the world. It seems that the way dogs get food rewards through play is crucial in their intellectual development.
The toy has a transparent granary. Unlike other food dispenser toys on the market, you need to unscrew the cover of the granary to add dog's favorite treats, such as freeze-dried or kibbles inside. The cover won't be opened, let alone being chewed broken. The transparent shell also gives you a clearer view of the amount of food available, making it easier to plan a more scientific and healthy diet for your dog.
When the dog shakes the toy, kibbles will fall out from the two bottom holes, which can be controlled by the side switch to open one or two holes to adjust the speed and difficulty of food dropping, and the leak holes are compatible with most food sizes. This design not only changes the feeding speed, but also controls the timing and difficulty of the “hunting”, and you can increase the difficulty of the game play according to the performance of the dog in a phased manner to improve his intelligence. We also set up a labyrinth of food barrier posts inside the granary, which means as the toy shakes, kibbles will pass through many barriers to drop form food leak holes. Under the double check of barrier posts and food leak holes, it can effectively avoid indigestion caused by fast feeding, so that he can play happily and eat more healthily.
The product adopts self-balancing design, and the bottom is a semi-circular sphere, which allows the toy to be used not only on smooth surfaces like the wood floor and marble floor, smooth scenes, but also on carpet, dog house and other non-smooth surfaces that all become a happy playground for dogs. You can use this toy on any flat surface to make it a true companion toy for your dog.
We suggest that when your dog newly starts to plays the toy, you can guide him to play for a period of time. Playing for 20 to 30 minutes with your dog everyday will make your dog love you more and make you feel the fun of owning a dog. It also helps prevent his depression caused by lack of company.
The toy is made from food-grade polypropylene, which does not contain any bisphenol A, PVC or phthalates. It completely protects your dog's health and is completely safe for your dog to use. Made from safe ABS & PP material, it is strong and wear-resistant. We also designed the toy with rounded corners, which not only prevents the dog from scratching himself during playing and gnawing, but also protects the dog's mouth and paws from abrasion. This design also allows the toy to "escape" when the dog chews the toy, which effectively extends its service life. The toy overall has no tiny parts, which avoids mistake eating by the dog during playtime. Therefore, you can rest assured to let the dog play.
