How it compares
Compared to plush puzzle toys, the West Paw Zogoflex Quizl is virtually indestructible for most breeds. While other rubber treat dispensers can be difficult to clean, the open-end design of the Quizl makes it simple to remove stuck food and sanitizes easily in a dishwasher, unlike competitors made from porous natural rubber.
How to use it
- Select a long treat like a carrot stick or a vegan biscuit.
- Twist the treat into the center of the toy to lock it in place.
- Give the toy to your dog in an area where they can comfortably roll it.
- Monitor the initial play session to ensure the dog is not attempting to swallow the toy whole.
- Place in the top rack of the dishwasher for easy cleaning after use.
