I love my tennis balls. When mom brought this thing out and started dropping the ball in it, clearly there was only one thing to do....prevent mom from dropping the ball into it. But she persisted, after all, she IS mom. Failing prevention of the problem, there was only course of action left....rip the doors off the dang thing. Problem solved in under 3 minutes.

This toy is great, and it provides lots of time with them trying to figure out how to get the ball. However, the tree part needs to be heavier. I have to hold it down for them to figure out how to get the ball out. My dogs are strong and easily knock it over trying to get the ball, defeating the purpose of the toy because it then falls out defeating the purpose of the toy. I would recommend it to smaller dogs.

As shown in the picture, the ball usually rolls right out of one of the 'doors' if that doesn't happen, he just tips it over. Mystery solved I could have just put the ball in a shoebox!

My Australian Shepherd LOVES tennis balls. Since he is so highly motivated by them, I thought he would really enjoy playing with the Mystery Tree. I was right and it didn't take him long to figure out the game. Although he is very gentle while playing, the tree limb gate popped off immediately after it was lifted to get the ball, so I put it back on. Then the side to side blue gate popped off while Winchester was pushing it to the side to release the ball, so I reattached that. The last door to be opened broke plastic part off when Winchester lifted it to get the ball. I couldn't reattach this door to the tree, so we played using only the first two openings while using my hand to block the ball from exiting through the broken door. As he continued to play, the same issues occurred each time Winchester attempted to get the ball from the other two openings. The Mystery Tree game has a great concept. My dog LOVES, LOVES, LOVES it!!! I am giving this a two star rating because of the excellent concept but the quality and craftsmanship are pathetic. It's made from thin cheap plastic and the gates / doors need to be attached in a better way. If this was made with high quality material (maybe wood with metal hardware for example) I would be willing to pay a higher price to purchase one for Winchester, because he loves it. As for this one piece of junk, it will be returned. I do not recommend this purchase to anyone.

There is a rough edge on the stump door portion and I had to file it to a rounded edge so that my dog did not poke his eye out. other wise it is OK. He enjoys it for those days he just cant get anyone to play with him or if the weather is bad. It slips across the floor so I usually have to hold it down with my foot or put it on a rug to allow him to play.
