Cheerble Wicked Ball Air – Motion-Active Ball for Medium/Large Dogs vs Outward Hound by Nina Ottosson Lickin' Layers Interactive Puzzle Game & Slow Feeder
Cheerble Wicked Ball Air – Motion-Active Ball for Medium/Large Dogs
by Cheerble
The Wicked Ball Air is a larger automatic motion toy designed for medium and large dogs that enjoy chasing moving objects. It rolls, bounces, and rotates on its own using three play modes—normal, gentle, and passive—and is built with a thicker shell than the smaller SE version. The toy is water-resistant, somewhat quieter than many electronic balls, and supports replaceable shell options for extended use. It is intended to encourage independent activity but is still not suitable for aggressive chewers.
Outward Hound by Nina Ottosson Lickin' Layers Interactive Puzzle Game & Slow Feeder
by Nina Ottosson / Outward Hound
Lickin' Layers combines a slow feeder, licking enrichment toy, and treat puzzle into one design with layered or textured surfaces for wet foods and compartments for dry food. Dogs engage by licking, sniffing, and flipping or working through the structure to access rewards, making it a calming option for food enrichment and slower feeding.
