I've been putting 1/4 to 1/3 of her meal in there to slow her down; bonus it keeps her occupied for a little bit. Maybe not suitable for raw but I'm sure training treats would work, too.
As with any toy, needs to be supervised and the appropriate size. Not sure if it would hold up to very aggressive chewers.
I second your recommendation, Carolyn! Coincidentally, I just purchased a couple of these for my dogs in the last week or so. The style of treat-dispensing toys I already had around the house were kind of hard for the dogs to get the treats out of, they would lose interest or I would end up having to help them, and I just hadn't used them in a long time. By chance, I happened to see these Busy Buddy Twists at a pet store, and thought it was a totally different design. I like that they are adjustable where you can make the size of the holes bigger or smaller, depending on how hard you want your dog to work at it. I also like that they come in different sizes so you can choose the most appropriate one for your dogs' breed and age.
