I brought this for my Labrador & it took less than 5min for him to figure it out. It's really good & funny to watch. U can adjust the ball inside of the machine so that u can restrict the amount of food that comes out/adjust it to the size of your dog's kibble.It's a great memory exercise, while also having them wlk2& from the machine, bk to wherever/how far away u put the button&provides more podgy dog's to shed some kg's while doing so &slows eating down.Button isn't good at sticking though.

....my 18 month old border collie is not food driven. She'll do anything for her favorite toy though. So this doesn't work well on it's own for us. She is not eager at all to press the button so she can have a treat or a bit of her food. I had to add a step in between. Press the button, the reward is to throw her favorite toy which she brings back to me and puts it in my hand and then she has the reward out of the tray for bringing it back, eagerly. The dispenser is a bit hit and miss though.

This arrived yesterday and we had much excitement from our Dalamatian pup as we set it up. Didn't even have to show him how to use it - he had it completely sussed within seconds and it was very quickly emptied! He's just 12 weeks old so not sure how long this will keep him entertained for.

I bought this for my Sheltie, mainly to utilise for agility training as it provides a reward at a distance without me being present to help with working independently and drive. It was particularly useful for teaching weaves as I found she was looking at my hands for the reward all the time rather than driving forward. Negatives for me are that sometime too much kibble is released or none at all and button can be quite sensitive when you're running but overall great value.

Bought to amuse two Boxer dogs when it's two wet outside to have a run around the Garden. In general it works well, we use some of their daily kibble allowance in it rather than buying extra treats , that way we know how much they eat a day and can control their weight. I was doubtful how long the button would last with a Boxer as they tend to get over excited about pushing a button :) but so far so good. Could have been five stars if the button had a light option in it for a deaf dog
