Stop canine boredom with the Qwizl, an interactive dog toy! If your dog is a tough chewer, gulps down treats and chews, needs something to do, this is the solution for you! Enter to win one at the end of this post!
My GBGV Life received the WestPaw™ Qwizl® in this post to review. My GBGV Life receives no additional benefits for barking about WestPaw products or the company. The opinions in this review are the honest opinion of My GBGV Life. WestPaw is not responsible for the contents of this post.
We are not really bored at our house, but Olivia and I both love to eat fast, and that includes munching down chews like bully sticks in record time. When WestPaw asked if we would like to try out the Qwizl, we jumped at the chance. Since Olivia is orange girl, we chose a tangerine one. The Qwizl also comes in aqua blue, or granny smith colors and a small or large size. Both of us like it a lot, so we may have to get another one.
The toy is easy for your human to load. Mom tried a few different things:
- Putting a bully stick in one end
- Inserting treats in the center slot
- Sticking treats in the ends
In case anyone is wondering why Madison isn’t appearing in this review, the answer is simple. She isn’t big on food, and flat out refuses to work on any puzzle toy or slow feeder to get food or treats. Mom put her favorite liver treats in the Qwizl, Madison sniffed, licked once or twice, and walked away. This is no surprise to us, not every dog has the time or desire for puzzle toys.
Olivia took the first try at the bully stick which was inserted in the end of the Qwizl. The ends have flexible ridges to hold different sized treats and chews, and long ones could go all the way through and out the other end.
She enjoyed chewing on the bully stick in the “holder”. The toy makes it easier to grip and hold onto.
We took out toy in the house to try it with some treats. See how Mom stuck one of the treats into the end of the Qwizl? This toy is made out of Zogoflex®. This is an exclusive material that makes fetch, tug-o-war, and chew therapy more fun—it’s easy on doggie mouths, stretches (without stretching out) and sports an unstoppable bounce—all while staying tenaciously tough. If your pup is a tough chewer, this is a good option.
I worked really hard to get my treat out of the end, but eventually I got it out. There is a reason they say this will stop canine boredom! All the openings and the way the toy moves, send the scent of the treats out as we work, keeping our motivation level high.

Olivia also had some tasty treats to rescue from the Qwizl. In this short Instagram video, you can see how hard she is working on her project!
See how comfy she is holding onto the toy while she works super hard to get the treat out of the grippers? She is really having fun.
Another wonderful thing about the Quizl is you can wash it in the top rack of your dishwasher! It’s made in the USA, and can be used indoors or outdoors, as a toy, or an interactive toy, and it even floats!
that is even better than a kinder surprise… you get so much variations you can try!!! 8 paws for such a super toy!!!
It is supposed to be indestructible. I wonder if you two could kill it or not?
The best toys are the ones that dispense treats!
This one really makes a girl work for them too!
My baby brother loves puzzle! We are thrilled to learn about this one. I am not so interested. My brother Dash loved them so mom has been digging out the old stuff that she stored away. Mom says Chester isn’t really too swift in terms of understanding the rules of the game at first, but he sticks with it and loves looking for the treats — which is the goal! You girls look adorable of course! Funny that Madison isn’t food motivated!!! We both are! have a good day. your friend Lilly
Madison really isn’t into food which has always made training her very tough for our mom. She looked at the Quizl, sniffed it and walked away. Bailie and I both love it. Hope Chester has puzzling fun with all the treasures you mom has had tucked away.
Anything is fun if you can get a treats!!
Me and Olivia will work forever to get the treats!
That looks like fun, but I am not a big puzzle fan. My mom tried another puzzle toy with me, and I just left it. Is there something wrong with me? XOXO, Sparkle
You are like Madison. Madison has zero interest, but she is very picky with food, and not at all food motivated like me and Olivia.
WOW!!! We need a few of these! Because we do not share very nicely. And, as you well know, we GBGVs are TOUGH chewers
We have to get another so we can each have our bully stick in our own. They are super nice toys and treat games.
We have a couple of dispenser ones, but not had any long chews put in the end….we don;t chew that much; we prefer eating!
We get some kind of a chew pretty much every evening, bully sticks, bladder sticks, esophagus, good stuff like that to help keep our chompers in top shape.
I have three pups right now. One is old and can’t see or hear anymore, but he loves his treats! We would like the small in granny smith color.
Awww, I bet he would love it!
What a great toy! Coda gets bored sometimes, i know she would love this.
It makes a normally quick treat take a long time, but we like working for it.
I have a lab/mastiff that would love this! He would need a large and he doesn’t care what color – just loves the puzzle/treat combo!
Oh, I bet the Lab portion would do anything for treats!
Nothing like working for your treats. Well done and a great review and giveaway.
Have a woof woof day. My best to your mom. ♥
We always seem to have to work for what we get. Mom says it is good for us.
West Paw comes up with some real fun things to play and chew!

We have a lot of their toys at our house and they last forever plus they are fun.
Luke LOVES the Quizl! We have two. He gets it filled with treats in the middle, a treat on each end, and peanut butter in the side holes. We use it for when we have to leave him home alone, and once he sees me fill that up, he can’t wait for me to leave so he can have it!
I like to have two so I can just throw one in the dishwasher until I run it, and we have a spare to use if needed.
I bet it is so clean when he is done that it doesn’t even need a dishwasher! Sounds like the perfect thing for Luke.
We love our WestPaw toys! They are great for chewers like Pierre.
We love our soft furry toys and the zogoflex ones. They are all fun and durable.
That does look like lots of serious pup fun gang, enjoy!
It’s a lot of work, but we like that kind of work.
That looks like a great toy. We would love to win one.
P.S. The link to your twitter page is wrong. It has “live” instead of “life” at the end.
We forgot to say we would like a large one in any color.
We hope you guys win!
Oh dear, someone needs glasses. Thanks for the heads up.
We’re big fans of these canine ‘ATMs.’
Your furiends,
Norman & Elsa 🐾
Ha! Canine ATM!
I like the size shown but in blue. Thanks.
Blue is a good calm color.
I am definitely going to look into getting at least one of these, even if I don’t win! We have a girl who will chew on the throws and beds we have for them, and that needs to stop! This looks like a great option to help with that. Thanks for the review!
Good luck to you. It is a great way to keep a dog busy for a while.
They have such cool toys.
They have awesome toys!
My sister’s Goldendoodle would love a large blue one. Rumor has it she can destroy anything!
Well, this would be a great test!
West Paw is my favorite brands of dog toys for my dog, Daisy! I’d love one in blue in a small size!
They do have amazing toys.
i think my girls would like the orange as well, in small please. We have some West Paw toys and the girls love them.
The orange will never get lost!
My puppies would LOVE a large aqua blue Quiz! toy! 🙂
Aqua blue in small.
We would like the small aqua blue, if we win.
