VireloLiving™ Dogtopus - The Boredom-Busting Treat Puzzle for Dogs

Turn Boredom Into a Game They Can’t Resist

Give your dog something more exciting to do than chew shoes or beg for attention. Hide their favorite treats inside and let them sniff, pull, search and figure out how to reach the reward. Every play session becomes a fun little challenge that keeps both their nose and mind busy.

16 Hidden Pockets. Endless Ways to Explore.

Tuck treats into different pockets and openings to create a new treasure hunt every time. Your dog has to sniff around, search through the folds and work out where the next reward is hiding — turning ordinary snack time into something much more engaging.

More Textures Mean More to Discover

Canvas fabric, flexible rubber, soft inner pockets and textured details give your dog more ways to interact with every part of the toy. There’s something to sniff, nudge, tug and explore from almost every angle — helping keep playtime interesting beyond the first few minutes.

You Hide the Treats. They Do the Rest.

Load it with treats or kibble, tie the tentacles together and hand it over. Start with a loose setup for an easier game, then add tighter knots as your dog gets better at solving it. One toy can become a different challenge again and again.

Made for Everyday Play. Easy for You Too.

At approximately 26 inches across when fully opened, there’s plenty of room for sniffing, tugging and treat hunting. It’s designed for dogs of different sizes, easy to refill between games and simple to clean after messy play — so it can easily become part of their everyday enrichment routine.
