What is to stop the dog from picking it up and just turning it up side down?

It would require some good force from either their nose or paw to lift the spinners which are easily moved around. It would probably fall out of their paws. Filling it with dog food and freezing it would keep them busy longer.

The answer is you, its an interactive toy and if your with your dog, enthusiastically playing with the toy as well your dog will learn how to spin them vs. Just flip it over and eat the treats.

The key is supervision the first time. After they see the fun they have getting to the food, it is more stimulating than turning it over. There is a border collie-lab mix and a large lab who is a voracious eater who both use this. They have been using it for about three months on a daily basis and do not turn it over. You can tell they thoroughly enjoy using it.

I would say the shape of it and the way all the levels move when they would try and pick it up.

depending on the type and size of dog you can have this trash can against the wall and attach some weight or weights to the metal wall spacer or just tape it to the back as you won't see it, and also use a rubber grip mat underneath to keep it from sliding, anyways good luck! We have to do the same thing as our dog likes to nudge everything around!

My 75 lb Golden pulls sometimes when she needs to stop and pooh. It only moves me enough to give me a signal, but doesn't cause a problem. If I don't want to stop I peddle faster, which seems to encourage her to run instead of stop. Only if I were going very slowly would it be a problem.

There are edges to prevent this, it's a ledge type thing. However it does snap off for cleaning and one of mine figured out they could pry it off. I just put it back on and never leave it off. It should definitely slow down her digging though. It did mine.

No, nothing to hold it up. The dog finally ends up sleeping on top of the "top". For what I wanted (a warm back), it doesn't work.

I live in an apartment & keep it on the balcony. The balcony is wood so I lined it with plastic, unfold the bottom of the box so it's flat & set the grass on it. My dogs didn't treat it like a chew toy & aren't interested in the box luckily!lol, maybe because it's familiar looking with the box unfolded. They don't dig up the grass either. I have two pups also so I always order two at a time, one seems fine but two gives them a few paces to sniff & then go like they normally do on a walk. There isn't much dirt either, never a mess getting it in place. Cleaning up = fold the grass & toss it in the trash. Easy! Long answer but hope that helps!

Just fold it and put it away. We have 6 of these (we have giant breed dogs) and I've never had an issue with this one.

Sorry no suggestions...I bought this product to keep my miniature weiner dog in the yard. Needless to say I don't have to worry about her pulling anything down or getting bigger.

Lift up on the bottom red handle. Pull up the sides to a semi locked position, then push down the bottom. That should lock the sides

I tried to get my German Shepherd to use the bed by using treats and coaxing. He would get up on it, but he'd get down as quickly as he could--usually after I'd stepped away. If your dogs have been up on their beds several times and still won't use them, perhaps, like my dog, they don't like the "feel" of it; some dogs are more sensitive about their balance. I gave it 2 weeks, trying every day to get my dog to use it, then gave up and shipped it back.

Rubber feet at the base of the ramp or maybe a soft plastic. For me it has never slipped. Just extend the ramp far enough so it is not real steep and the dogs will run up and down it. I steady the ramp in uneven areas.

The only way a dog it going to get out of this is if they are laying down with their legs out in front of them... and they pull backwards... in that case, yes, they can get out of it... That said, while walking and standing up, it would be very difficult for a dog to get out.

according too simplisafe cats and dogs under 30lbs won't set off the motion detector. if they are above that all you do is reverse the device upside down.

My dog stops his activity that is undesirable when we use negative. With a short burst of a positive command his ears pick up but no alarmed behavior. I actually use the positive in a short burst to call him back in from outside.

There is a "mesh" window that zips closed. This allows your pet to move freely inside the "basket" but does not allow them to jump out. But there is no "tie-down". The Tie-Down could become a choke hazzard.

Hello, this is designed to help prevent the dog from fully bending to reach their backend. Unfortunately, we can not guarantee that this will fully prevent your dog from reaching around.

It sounds like maybe the harness is not fitted on her. Make sure you adjust the straps so the harness fits snugly. The purpose of the front hook is to redirect the dog when they are pulling so a little pulling to the side is normal but not so much that it should bother you.
