BoYoYo Treat Dispensing Puzzle Slow Feeder

Words · Craig & Sammy · ASIN B0D4V9V39Y · Filed under  Puzzle Toys

“Good for light chewers and puppies — keeps them properly occupied. Not for Sammy's type. Strong jaws will dismantle it in an afternoon.”

A bored Yorkie is a mischievous Yorkie, and every Yorkshire Terrier parent knows exactly what that means. This enrichment puzzle toy is specifically designed to combat boredom by making your Yorkie work for their treats, turning snack time into brain game time. The treat-dispensing feature doubles as a slow feeder, which is particularly beneficial for Yorkies who tend to gobble their food too quickly. Slowing down mealtime helps prevent digestive issues and extends the entertainment value of every treat. The puzzle engages your Yorkie's natural curiosity and problem-solving instincts, which are strong in this intelligent terrier breed.

For your 4-7 lb Yorkshire Terrier, mental stimulation is just as exhausting as a walk around the block. This makes puzzle toys invaluable on rainy days or when you need your Yorkie to settle down for a bit. The design is easy to fill with small treats or kibble and simple to clean after use. Keep your clever Yorkie happily occupied and out of trouble with enrichment toys they genuinely enjoy. Check Amazon for current pricing.

Verdict
For specific cases

What owners loved

  • + Genuinely entertaining: 247 of 257 reviewers say it keeps dogs engaged, often for an hour or longer
  • + Easy to load and clean, with adjustable treat openings for different kibble sizes
  • + Works well as a slow feeder, helping dogs with fast eating and digestion
  • + Durable for gentle-to-moderate chewers: rolling mechanism prevents boredom better than static toys

Watch for

  • Durability is a deal-breaker for strong chewers: 166 of 269 reviewers report cracking, breaking, or tearing within days to months
  • Not designed for chewing — hard plastic breaks easily and can splinter, making it unsafe for aggressive chewers (60 negative chewability mentions)
  • Mixed functionality: some report treats get stuck at the bottom, defeating the purpose

What owners say

From the reviews.

Customers are split sharply by dog type. Light chewers and puppies love this toy — entertainment scores are high (247 positive of 257 total), and it delivers solid mental stimulation. But durability is the sore point: 166 of 269 durability mentions are negative, mostly from owners of strong chewers reporting failure within weeks. The toy is well-made for its intended use, but it's fragile plastic, not tough rubber, so it's genuinely unsuitable for aggressive chewers or large dogs who gnaw.

Customer questions

Things people ask.

Q01. How long will this last if my dog is a strong chewer? +

Likely not long. 166 of 269 durability reviews mention cracking, breaking, or tearing. Many report failure within days to six months with aggressive chewers. It's made of hard plastic, not designed for gnawing.

Q02. Does it actually keep dogs entertained, or do they solve it immediately? +

For most dogs, yes — 247 of 257 entertainment reviews are positive, and many report 30 minutes to an hour of engagement. The rolling mechanism makes it harder than static puzzle toys. But some dogs figure it out quickly and then demand constant refills.

Q03. Is it easy to clean? +

Yes. Multiple reviewers mention it's easy to wash with soapy water and simple to load. The adjustable treat opening is intuitive.

Q04. Will it work as a slow feeder? +

Yes, for dogs who won't try to destroy it. Several reviewers use it daily as a slow feeder and report it reduces gulping and fast eating. Dog needs to roll and paw the toy to release food gradually.

Q05. What size/weight dog is this best for? +

Reviews mention successful use with dogs 8–30 lbs, particularly puppies and small-to-medium breeds. Reviewers note it's 'perfectly sized for small dogs' and works well for corgi and French bulldog owners — but not if they're aggressive chewers.
