Your dog isn't greedy. They're just bored of the bowl.
Dogs are made to sniff, search and work for their food. A standard bowl skips all of that – the meal is gone in moments, and the rest of the evening stretches out with nothing to do.
A puzzle feeder brings the search back. Instead of gulping, your dog has to press, nudge and lift to reach each bite, turning an ordinary meal into a small, satisfying job.
- Turns mealtime into a gentle puzzle
- Encourages your dog to slow down and take their time
- Gives curious dogs something to focus on indoors
One toy, two layers of challenge.
Fill the clear central dome with kibble. Your dog paws and noses at the centre to work kibble out into the tray below – and the first part of the puzzle is solved.
The outer ring adds a second level: orange flip-up lids and sliding covers hide little pockets where you can tuck extra kibble or small treats, so your dog has to lift and push to find them.
Every dog learns at their own pace – show them how it works the first few times and stay close while they get the hang of it.
- Clear top so you – and your dog – can see the food
- Flip-up lids and sliding covers around the edge
- Wide, flat base that sits on the floor
Three steps to a slower, smarter meal
No setup, no batteries – just food, a curious dog and a few minutes of fun.
Fill it up
Pour your dog's usual dry kibble into the clear dome, and tuck a few pieces or small treats under the flip lids and sliding covers around the edge.
Show them once
Place it on the floor and nudge the centre yourself so your dog sees food appear. Lift a lid together. Most dogs soon start to copy you.
Let them work it out
Step back and let them press, sniff and nudge their way to every piece. Stay nearby, and pick the toy up once the food is gone.
Breakfast, dinner, or a rainy-day reward.
Use it in place of the bowl for a whole portion of kibble, or as a quick brain game between walks. Either way, your dog has to slow down and think about every mouthful.
Because the toy sits in one spot rather than rolling across the floor like a treat ball, there's no chasing it round the room – and the clear top lets you see at a glance how much is left.
- Made for dry kibble and small treats
- Sits in one spot – no chasing it across the floor

Small design touches, big difference at mealtime
Simple to use, bright and easy to spot – and engaging enough to keep curious dogs busy.
Two-level designMore to discover
A food-filled clear centre plus an outer ring of hidden pockets, so there's always another step to solve.
Paw-powered centrePaws and noses welcome
Your dog works the clear centre with a paw or nose to free kibble into the tray below, rewarding them for figuring it out.
Flip lids & slidersLift, push, find
Orange flip-up lids and sliding covers hide extra kibble or small treats around the outer ring.
Slower eatingBite by bite
Food comes out a little at a time, so your dog takes longer over their meal than with a standard bowl.

Comparison with a typical plain food bowl and a basic rolling treat ball.
For wet afternoons, quiet evenings and everything in between.
Some days the walk is short – the rain won't stop, you're working from home, or your dog is resting after a busy weekend. That's when a little brain work really helps.
Hide a few treats under the lids, set it down and let your dog sniff, lift and slide their way to the reward while you get on with your day.
- Rainy days when walks are shorter
- Working-from-home afternoons
- A calm wind-down before bedtime
