Have you tried one of the kong genius toys? those take my dog about an hour, where a regular frozen red kong lasts 20 minutes. We're also working on a lot of tricks and stuff to keep him busy.

My pibble can destroy EVERY toy except these:

spunky pup fire hydrant

Kong genius mike

bento ball

Kong extreme ball

Tuffy three way tug


And then, weirdly enough, the small size tuffy stuffys she chooses not to destroy, although she certainly could.

Also filled bones, bully sticks, and Himalayan dental chews she loves.

All that said, nothing is purely indestructible so you have to monitor and occasionally replace any toy.

I'm in need of some new and difficult puzzle toys for my girl - we have KONGs of different shapes, styles, and sizes as well as some other foraging toys, but once she figures them out, they lose some of their purpose. I freeze them, put difficult objects in, and hide them for her to find, but in 10 minutes, she's done.

Any recommendations for toys that are good for solo dog play and thinking?

I have a mini Aussie so I feel you. I try to be as inventive as possible with my budget but I suggest most interactive/treat dispensing toys. I make large ice cubes that are half chicken/beef broth with a jerky or bone sticking out only a little. Then because it’s a mini and she’s not a huge chewer I can make these inside a talenti gelato container. So basically inside a Tupperware (which plastic isn’t ideal because they can swallow it but mine doesn’t and focuses on the bone) there is the half and half broth with a bone and an easy treat to get. She also doesn’t eat paper/cardboard so I can put a bone or treat inside a tissue box or empty pasta box or whatever and she’ll rip it apart to get to it. Once again, I can only do it because I’m watching and I know she does not ingest this.

Here are some toys I suggest that are proven safer:

Lumo Ball

Snuffle Mat I really like the snuffle mat because you can feed all your meals in this and bring it with you if you want to keep your dog busy wherever you are.

OSPet Interactive Feeder
Trixie Puzzle

Ottosson Puzzle I really like most toys Outward Hound makes.

My dog’s favorite kong I find I can put just a biscuit or fill it full of kibble and pb and she’ll spend quite a bit of time getting it out.

I mix together plain yogurt, a bit of peanut butter, and kibble, pour it in, and freeze. Do you have a Kong Genius too? Adds a little challenge. I just got the Wobbler and it's great - takes Tess about 10-15 minutes to get them all out and she has a blast doing it. She also has a Tug-A-Jug.

Really, no puzzle toy is going to be super long-term, though. Bones and hooves keep her occupied the longest, but for Tess I really only care about her being occupied during the first 15 minutes after we leave her alone.

Seconding the Kong idea. This is my list, based on the Digital Dog Training Book linked to in the sidebar:

Puzzle toys: Odin, KONG Genius Mike, KONG Genius Leo, are a few simple ones.

Since you live in a condo, sounds like you are going to need to carry your dog down the stairs for now. Nothing else to be done really.

X-pens are great! 30-60 seconds sounds good. Don't want to do longer. Though I prefer removing myself from the puppy for crazy biting.
