West Paw Zogoflex Toppl Treat Dispensing Dog Chew Toy

by West Paw

Price $25-$30
Rating ★★★★★ 4.5/5 (448 reviews)
Category Puzzle Toys
Best For Ideal for food-motivated dogs who enjoy licking and foraging and are moderate chewers rather than extreme power chewers.

The Toppl is a treat-dispensing puzzle bowl made from soft yet durable Zogoflex material. Dogs work to lick, nudge, paw, or twist out wet food, kibble, or treats held in place by interior teeth, and the toy can also be frozen to extend playtime. Its open bowl shape makes it easy to fill and clean, and interlocking size combinations can increase the challenge.
