When to Choose Benebone Wishbone
Moderate chewers who love flavored chew toys with an ergonomic grip shape
Benebone Wishbone delivers the best flavored chew experience in this comparison — real bacon is infused throughout the nylon, not just sprayed on the surface. The wishbone shape is genuinely clever, giving dogs purchase points that flat bones cannot match. Durability is excellent for moderate chewers, though power chewers should size up or consider the KONG Classic instead.
Strengths
- Real bacon flavor infused throughout — not just a surface coating
- Wishbone shape allows dogs to grip and chew from multiple angles
- Made in the USA with food-grade nylon and real flavor ingredients
Limitations
- Not intended for aggressive power chewers who can break off chunks
- No fillable or puzzle component — purely a chew toy
- Needs replacement when deep grooves appear (roughly every 2-3 months for moderate chewers)
When to Choose Nina Ottosson Challenge Slider Interactive Treat Puzzle
Experienced puzzle dogs and owners who want the most challenging treat puzzle available
The Nina Ottosson Challenge Slider is the most mentally demanding toy in this comparison — the multi-step sliding and locking mechanisms require genuine problem-solving that Level 2 puzzles simply do not offer. For dogs who blow through simpler puzzles in minutes, this provides 20-45 minutes of focused engagement. The premium price is justified by the enrichment quality for dogs who need the challenge.
Strengths
- Level 3 advanced puzzle with multi-step sliding and locking mechanisms — the hardest in this comparison
- BPA, PVC, and phthalate-free composite material is food-safe and dishwasher-safe
- Multiple hidden compartments keep even experienced puzzle dogs challenged for 20-45 minutes
Limitations
- Expensive at $33 for a single puzzle toy
- One size only — too large for toy breeds and not durable enough for giant breed chewing
- Dogs who have mastered Level 2 puzzles may solve this faster than expected
