The Dog Brick hides treats in two places: inside the red flip-top boxes and in the blue tray underneath. That distinction is the reason to choose this puzzle: a lid opens a box, while moving a slider uncovers a lower hiding place. White bone-shaped covers add a separate lifting action.

It is a puzzle to use with your dog, not one to leave out while you are away. The detachable bones are part of the activity—and parts you must keep track of.

Follow the treat, not just the lid

A treat inside a red compartment is reached by opening its hinged lid. A treat in the blue base is reached by uncovering that lower space instead. Sliding a red box changes which part of the tray is exposed; flipping its lid does not do the same job.

The blue wells sit below the red sliding compartments. Opening a red lid is not the same action as uncovering a blue well.

The white bones cover middle compartments and lift out of the board. They are not handles for opening the red lids. This gives the Dog Brick three distinct actions rather than a row of identical covered cups.

An open red lid exposes the inside of its box. The white bone beside the board is a separate removable piece.

You choose which hiding places to cover

For an easier introduction, leave some bones out and open the red lids. Show your dog where the treats are and how the puzzle works. You do not have to close every compartment at once.

Add treats to the base or red compartments, then cover them with bones, sliders or lids. Access involves lifting, sliding or flipping; supervise throughout.

Choose it for this mix of movable covers, not for a promised playtime or a guaranteed response. The photos explain the mechanism; they do not establish how quickly your dog will learn it.

The loose pieces change how you use it

Stay with your dog and supervise closely throughout. Do not allow chewing of the board or any pieces, and never leave your dog alone with it. No toy is indestructible. Inspect regularly and stop using it if it breaks or parts become damaged or unexpectedly separated. It is for dogs, not children.

Loose bones need gathering after play. Supplier lifestyle image, not a test or proof of fit for every dog.

After play, gather the removable bones and put the puzzle away until the next supervised session. Remove leftover food, hand-wash with warm soapy water, rinse and dry.

The version here is the blue Dog Brick, model 67333, one unit, with red compartments and white bones. Match that model and pack selection when buying. This guide is based on product documentation and supplier photos, not hands-on testing.
