Treat dispensers are devices designed to hold and release small snacks or treats for pets, such as dogs and cats. They can be filled with various types of treats, including kibble, biscuits, or even small toys. These dispensers often use mechanisms like levers or buttons that allow pets to access the treats by interacting with the device. Many treat dispensers are designed to engage pets mentally and physically, encouraging them to play and solve puzzles to receive their rewards. Some models are automatic and can be programmed to dispense treats at specific times, while others require manual operation. Popular brands include PetSafe and Outward Hound.
