The Brick puzzle combines sliding compartments, flip lids, and removable bone blocks so dogs must perform multiple actions to get to hidden treats. This layered interaction makes it more challenging than simpler treat boards and gives dogs several problem-solving steps in one toy. It is made from BPA-free hard plastic and is widely used as a next-step puzzle for developing canine enrichment skills.
