Best For Best for smart dogs with prior puzzle experience that need a more advanced mental challenge.

The Nina Ottosson MultiPuzzle Level 4 Expert Toy is a challenging treat puzzle with multiple sliding, rotating, and locking components designed to test experienced dogs. Dogs use their nose, paws, and snout to uncover hidden treats in layered compartments, and the removable center wheel allows the difficulty to be adjusted. Built from hard plastic, it is more durable than many basic puzzles but still intended for supervised enrichment rather than chewing. It is especially well suited for dogs that have already mastered beginner and intermediate puzzles.
