Fun Mind and Strategy Games

It is always good to create games where it gets your puppy to think and to strategise. This is what this toy does. it started out slow with some watching them attempts and suddenly they were getting treats out. They learn what gives them success by try try and trying. They also didn't get frustrated. They simply had fun.

Check out the videos.

By using toys like this, you teach them to love learning and they eventually learn success, It is a win/win. This is easy to drop out treats. Usually it has a cap on it with a hole drilled out but that's my next step. This toy - we have 2 of them that need repairing was made for us. You can also use snuffle mats to hide treats so they learn to use their nose but this is one step more complicated and more challenging. I like what they learn from it. 

Pups are getting older and are indeed learning through play and through challenges. Bravo little ones! What a huge change in less than 2 weeks.
