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
When to Choose Multipet Lamb Chop Squeaky Plush
Gentle players and puppies who enjoy comfort toys and squeaky plush
The Multipet Lamb Chop is a beloved comfort toy for good reason — dogs are inexplicably drawn to it, and the squeaker adds engagement. However, durability is the weakest in this comparison. This is strictly a supervised play and comfort toy, not a chew toy. For gentle players and puppies, the under-$7 price makes it easily replaceable.
Strengths
- Iconic Shari Lewis character design that dogs universally seem to love
- Built-in squeaker provides auditory stimulation and sustained interest
- Available in multiple sizes from 6 inches to 24 inches
Limitations
- Plush construction is not durable — moderate chewers can destroy it in days
- Stuffing can be pulled out and ingested if the toy is torn open
- Squeaker can be extracted and become a choking hazard
