Before I went to work the next day I resolved I would take it back to the store but I set it up one more time and left it on the floor. When I came home to check on him 3 hours later all the treats were out of it and all the cups were all over the kitchen and the paw shaped red thing wasn't even tipped over! I was so proud of him! I set it up every day before I leave now and when I come home it's all solved and he hasn't gotten into the trash, the baby gate wasn't knocked down, and nothing has been been destroyed even one time since I bought it.
The best part I think about this toy is that all the plastic that Kyjen uses is shatter proof. I've had a lot of problems before with shattered plastic. Tank (my bullmastiff) eats things he chews up and I've had to deal with bleeding gums before. Not fun. The cups bend on the top if your dog bites them to get them out but they don't crack. Also, my other fave is that it's dishwasher safe. As anyone who's ever seen Turner and Hooch knows mastiff breeds drool like crazy and Tank's toys get seriously freaking disgusting and it's great to be able to wash it.
You should but this toy, it's so worth it.This is a great little item to keep a dog busy. But my 105 pound boy got bored with it so he just flipped the whole thing over with his mouth to dislodge the caps. It probably works better for a smaller dog.I was very disappointed when the package came in the mail. The item had a piece of cardboard taped to the top and bottom of the original manufacturing packaging. The first problem was that my daughter saw the package and what it was. This was on her Santa list for our dog. Now I'm down one christmas present and I had to figure out how to explain why it came in the mail!!
Second the packing tape was directly adhered to the manufacturing box. There is no way to remove it without damage to the original box. Why would anyone ship something in this fashion? It is completely unprofessional and now the gift was a complete waste of my money.
If a company feel it necessary to ship in this fashion, even though the item is small enough to fit in another shipping standard sized box, you should state it when you list the item. I have never received a package in this condition before. There was no consideration for the buying and their use for the item. Taping it up that way renders it completely unusable as a gift and especially this time of year.
