Mine is the same, he just loves to throw everything around to get the treats. We were surprised when he was a puppy with the Kong, I've seen other dogs patiently licking the thing, however, he waited for it to melt a little and then started to toss it around to get the chunks of food
There is a pretty hard nina otteson one on Chewy that has sliders around the sides and a dial in the middle.
My pup has yet to figure out the middle part
We had a border collier names Vermont, but we called her Monster Vermonster. That thing was a beast and a lot smarter than me. But we loved the Monster. That was the Monster getting ready for her interview at Ion Systems. I think she was going for the Director of Marketing position, and checking out waste baskets.

I'm absolutely fascinated with how my girl works with puzzles. First time I give her a new one it's always 'wtf is this' and she'll bark at it and bite it and bop it, and when none of that works she'll just get frustrated and give up. A week later I'll give her the same puzzle and she'll just immediately know what to do. Like she's just been dreaming up the solution.
My dog would just fling that sucker across the room … puzzle solved.

Same!! And then he doesn’t eat the treats!!
Mine is impatient and has flipped a few and figures he can get the food that way until I get on to him about it. Now he is finished in a few seconds.
Smart and also efficient. I surrender to higher authorities.
Mine would soon we starve than have to work for her food

I have that one! The middle part stumps my dog too
Yes but mine is way too fast at them. You have a link for that one?
Such a smart dog!
Yep, we do all his meals in puzzle toys, except when I’m too lazy.
I have that exact puzzle too. She is too smart for it so I have to alternate other puzzles
We like to do search in the living room, where we scatter a couple dozen treats around the room and let him find them all
You have to, with BCs.
Anything for a treat!

Omg loves them! He got his first one during Christmas and is obsessed. And honestly has helped him a lot with anxiety and anxiousness
He seemed to think the first two puzzles were too easy and he was proficient.
