WOOF Pupsicle - Long-Lasting Interactive Dog Toy to Keep Your Pup Busy and Distracted - Safe for Dogs - Low-Mess Design - Dog Toys for Medium and Large Dogs 25-75 lbs

OMG. I am so obsessed with this toy. I cannot believe I didn’t buy it sooner. It kept my pup busy for 1 hour and she struggled to get the treat out. So good for their brains! Also easy to wash in the dishwasher and treats came right out. No smell and very durable. Every dog should own this!

This toy has lasted 1.5years and still going for my two dogs. One pup is a 65lb Aussie doodle mix and my 25lb cocker spaniel are super chewers and absolutely love this toy. I bought them each one (a green and purple toy) and it keeps them both busy for about 10-15 minutes. I bought two of the trays that come with this toy and make my own treats and freeze them. It takes my dogs longer to eat and lick the treat with it being frozen. It gets the dogs focused on it and they are determined to eat the treat in its entirety before doing something else. I definitely recommend this toy. 10/10

These Pupcicles are so great. I have a 15 week old English bulldog puppy and she is extremely needy. This Pupcicle allows me to get some stuff done around the house and keeps her occupied. It’s been a great way to introduce solo time without me being right by her side. I like to tether her leash to the freezer handle so I can cook and do dishes. Personally I put it in a heavy ceramic bowl so that it doesn’t roll around. I got the small pink Pupcicle with the size small refills. It is super easy to open as long as you wash it once they are done. I truly love this thing.

So far, I have no complaints. I can see that this toy might not work well for some combinations of dogs and people, but for my two current dogs (blue heeler and small terrier), this thing, plus the treat mold, is GREAT! I love that the dogs get it more or less fully emptied, and it is washable. I love that I can pre-prepare a whole bunch of frozen fillings by using the treat mold (sold separately). Yes, I agree that this is a very expensive item, especially if you buy the treat mold along with the toy. I bought two toys at a very reduced price on Prime day, also bought the treat mold at full price, and consider the combined purchase a great value at this cost. The current price (for the toy) is comparable to the cost of an extra-large Toppl, and I've seen it at a price similar to the current cost of a large Toppl. I checked the current price of the XXL "extreme" Kong I needed to use for one dog, and the current price on a different web site is almost the same as the Woof Pupsicle. To answer questions and issues I've seen mentioned... * My terrier weighs 16 pounds and uses the large toy with no problem. Possibly it is minimally less thoroughly cleaned out, but I'm not positive about that. My only warning would be that you ought to keep track of calories and/or what you put in it because you could potentially give a small dog way too many empty calories from "junk food." * The toy is still usable without the treat mold. Just fill up the solid half of the toy and stick it in the freezer overnight, same as you would do with a Kong, except it takes up less space. * Do introduce it properly, by initially giving it with NON-frozen and sticky food in it. An even more slow, careful, step-wise introduction may be necessary if your dog is a destructo-dog. * The terrier takes about 20 minutes to empty it of frozen canned dog food. That's non-trivial, and I'm not sure why people are complaining. The heeler takes less time (maybe 15 minutes?), but it's still an amount of time that is helpful for me, and this licking activity seems to be especially calming for her (as compared to using the food puzzle toys with kibble). * It initially was extremely difficult to open and close the thing. I was best able to do it with a "light" touch, not pulling and making sure not to press the two surfaces together. After not very long, it became much easier. I didn't need to use oil. If you have trouble getting it closed, it became a lot easier after the solid part was frozen (while the vented part stayed at room temperature). * I agree with others that a larger version might be nice, but a larger version might make dogs more likely to destroy the toy in place of emptying it by focused licking. * I'm not sure that any of these toys are truly indestructible. People are mentioning Kongs. Well, my Kongs have required periodic replacement. They have tooth marks and eventually get "modified" to where pieces might get torn off and consumed. For one dog, I had to upgrade to the XXL-size Extreme (black) version, and she also put tooth marks in that. I own a fortune's worth of Kongs, Toppls, and a couple similar food toys, and they all have their issues. They have holes in them that allow liquid to immediately come out (before freezing occurs). They are bulky and use up a lot of space in the freezer, and the unusual shapes make them non-stackable. For me, Kong toys are time-consuming to fill and difficult to clean. My dogs couldn't get the very end cleaned out without throwing the Kong around (making a big mess), and even then it wasn't fully clean. Some did end up with mold in that part of them. [It looks like new inventions, like plugs (or something like that), may solve some of the problems; I didn't have those.] I mention the other toys only to say that this unique brilliant toy has seeming solved all those problems, and my dogs truly LOVE this toy as well. Be assured, I will update this review if anything changes.

First Impressions I bought the Pupsicle for our new rescue dog who was very nervous whenever we had to leave the house. Right out of the box it felt sturdy and well-made, and I liked that it wasn’t just another cheap chew toy. ⸻ Setup & Ease of Use I went with the premade treat inserts to start, which made it super simple — just pop one in and hand it over. It’s also dishwasher-safe, which is a huge win for me since I don’t want to deal with scrubbing peanut butter out of toys. ⸻ Performance in Real Life She loves it. The Pupsicle has kept her occupied and calm, which has really helped her acclimate to her new home. Instead of pacing or whining when we leave, she settles down with this toy and stays busy. ⸻ Pros & Cons Pros: • Helps reduce anxiety for nervous dogs • Very durable and solid • Easy to clean (dishwasher safe) • Premade inserts make it effortless Cons: • On the heavier side, so probably best for medium+ dogs • Inserts are convenient but add a little extra cost ⸻ Who It’s For Perfect for new dog owners, rescues, or anyone with a dog who needs a healthy distraction when left alone. ⸻ Final Verdict The Pupsicle has made a noticeable difference for our rescue pup. It’s durable, easy to use, and has genuinely helped her feel more at ease in her new environment. Highly recommend.

We have a 10 month old Doberman, who chews up everything in sight. She LOVES this ball, and carries it everywhere. I do wish the interior ball was larger, but I put peanut butter in it to push the ball up to the top. It will keep her busy for hours. My 8 year old Doberman enjoys it when I fill it with peanut butter, but he tires of it more quickly. If you have a young dog who needs entertainment, this is just a wonderful toy.

I bought two of these and the mold so I can make pupsicles for my Belgian Malinois puppy so she isn’t as bummed out when we have to leave for work. She LOVES these and they take up a solid 20 minutes or more of her time. We freeze treats into yogurt, broth, and other things into the molds and she is obsessed. These are extremely durable. She is a hard, hard chewer and hasn’t come close to damaging these meaningfully. For $20 a pop and the cost of the mold, they may seem a bit expensive, but they provide a ton of value as they are functionally reusable treats! The big issue is that they are nearly impossible to open once they’ve been washed a few times because of the friction properties on the threads. They require a ton of effort to open most of the time, and I am a 6’, 245 pound jiu jitsu practitioner. Literally, I have had to give up on opening them before because it would make me late to work. Using olive oil on the threads helps, but I have yet to find a longer solution. Maybe beeswax? To the manufacturer: make the threads using a lower-friction material like a plastic and this issue will go away. These easily have the potential for five stars, and then some. EDIT: Woof’s customer service was kind enough to offer me a refund without any strings attached, based on my review. I do not plan on taking it, because I do enjoy the product, but I appreciate that they offered.

I bought this because my dog is both a heavy chewer and an anxious foot-licker; he needs something to concentrate on. This was a hit with him as soon as I handed it over to him!! Now as soon as I pick it up he is eagerly waiting for it. I love that you can make your own fillings, buy the premade ones, or just fill it with things on the fly- sometimes I just put some peanut butter and dog kibble in it. The flexibility of it makes it so easy to use. He is entertained and active for an easy 45 minutes when he has one. My one qualm with them is that they can get stuck and it’s incredibly hard to unscrew the pieces- especially if you’re not washing it basicLly right away. We’ve combatted the problem by spraying some olive oil on the threads, but it doesn’t always help. 100% worth buying but wash it right away so it doesn’t get stuck!
