Yukon here~Mom got me a yellow and black ball that is flat on the top and bottom, called the Dog Dizzy. She puts little bits of cat food inside and then I have to roll it around to get the cat food out. Sounds easy enough, right? Uhm, no. It is not easy. The darn thing doesn't roll. It also doesn't come apart when you chew it. I got a bizzilion tooth marks on it but it hasn't broken at all in over 24 hours. Very few toys can say THAT!!!
Mom here~ it's an intelligence test toy made in Sweden by the Nina Ottosson company. He tried to break it for quite a while, but that wasn't working for him. I was very impressed that this toy survived his first attempts. He has gotten treats out and knows they come out of the hole in the side. It's weighted so it almost never gives out treats, because the part with the hole is on the light side and points up. The next method was to pick it up and drop it, which sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. He has gotten to the point of forcing it to move with his paws and grip, even laying on his side to get the treats off the floor. Yukon is a pretty smart doggy, if I do say so, myself.
