Quick fit check
Who it fits—and what to check.
- The removable parts are not chew toys
- Teach the mechanisms and store the puzzle after supervised use
Set the challenge
Start easier, then add every compartment.
Difficulty can be adjusted by using fewer hiding places and helping the dog learn one action at a time.
Introduce one mechanism
Start with an easy exposed compartment or one moving part so the dog learns the goal.
Add the full sequence
Use the flip lids, sliding sections, and removable covers after the dog understands each action.
Supervise and store
Prevent chewing, inspect the parts, hand-wash the puzzle, and put it away when empty.
