1. A dog toy comprising:
a first component having a first component body that defines a first component cavity, the first component body having a first component opening into the first component cavity; and
a second component having a second component body, the second component body comprising a first protrusion and a second protrusion,
wherein each of the first protrusion and the second protrusion is selectively insertable into the first component opening in a manner where it remains within the first component opening to close the first component opening and is removable from the first component opening when a separation force is applied,
whereby a treat can be inserted into the first component cavity, the first component cavity can be closed by insertion of the first protrusion or second protrusion into the first component opening, and a dog can gain access to the treat by separating the first component and the second component, and
wherein the first protrusion comprises a shaft portion and a knob portion, the shaft portion of the first protrusion having a cross-sectional dimension less than a cross-sectional dimension of the knob portion of the first protrusion, wherein the second protrusion comprises a shaft portion and a knob portion, the shaft portion of the second protrusion having a cross-sectional dimension less than a cross-sectional dimension of the knob portion of the second protrusion, wherein the cross-sectional dimension of the shaft portion of the first protrusion is substantially the same as the cross-sectional dimension of the shaft portion of the second protrusion, and wherein the cross-sectional dimension of the knob portion of the first protrusion is different than the cross-sectional dimension of the knob portion of the second protrusion, so that the separation force for the first protrusion is different than the separation force for the second protrusion, and wherein the separation force for the first protrusion is selected to allow the second component to be separated from the first component by a dog.
