Apple Crinkly + Burrow Dog Toy

There's a stretch between breakfast and the evening walk where the dog is bored and you're busy. A burrow toy is what fills it.

Lambwolf Collective, women-owned and going since 2020, builds enrichment toys the Montessori way — open-ended play objects a dog has to think through rather than shred. The Apple sits a step up from their beginner burrows.

The Lambwolf Collective Apple Crinkly + Burrow Dog Toy is a crinkly fabric apple with a fuzzy caterpillar tucked inside. The pockets are tighter and the hiding is trickier than a starter burrow, which makes it an intermediate challenge. Your dog has to nose and dig to work the caterpillar loose, and it squeaks the moment they win.

The crinkle of the shell keeps them curious the whole way through. Slip a few treats into the apple and it doubles as a scent puzzle, so a restless afternoon indoors becomes something to solve. Sized for small to medium pups, it's a satisfying next step once a beginner burrow has become too easy.

• Hidden squeaky caterpillar — your dog digs it out, and it squeaks as the payoff
• Crinkly apple shell — the crinkle sound holds attention and invites investigation
• Intermediate difficulty — tighter pockets than a beginner burrow, more of a puzzle to solve
• Treat-stuffable shell — hide kibble in the apple for an extra nosework layer
• Sized for small to medium dogs — apple approx. 9 × 9 cm, caterpillar approx. 12 cm
• Machine washable — gentle cycle and air dry; vacuum between washes

Care & Precautions +

• No toy is completely indestructible — supervise play, especially the first time a new toy is introduced.
• This is a plush enrichment toy, not a chew toy. Remove it if it starts to come apart so the squeaker and stuffing aren't swallowed.
• Keep the caterpillar out of reach when your dog is unsupervised.

FAQ +

How hard is this toy?

The Lambwolf Collective Apple Crinkly + Burrow Dog Toy is rated intermediate. The pockets are tighter and the caterpillar is tucked in deeper than a beginner burrow, so it suits dogs that have already got the hang of easier snuffle toys.

Can I hide treats inside?

Yes. You can hide kibble or small treats in the apple shell to turn it into a scent puzzle. It's a good way to slow down a fast eater and add a nosework challenge on top of the burrow.

Is the caterpillar removable?

It is. Your dog pulls the caterpillar out as the reward, and you simply tuck it back into the apple to reset the game. That's what makes the toy replayable day after day.

Is it suitable for large dogs?

The Apple is designed for small to medium dogs. A large dog can still enjoy it under supervision, but the burrow challenge and the parts are sized with smaller pups in mind.
