If you have an easily bored dog, it’s probably because they aren’t receiving the amount of mental stimulation they need. Check out these puzzle-like dog\u00a0toys that will help Fido stay occupied and engaged.<\/p>\n
Imagine hide-and-seek except made into a squeaky toy for your dog, that’s the foundation of Hide-A-Squirrel<\/a>. The plush puzzle is not hard to use, but your dog will be mentally stimulated playing it. How it works is you stuff the squeaky squirrels inside the soft plush tree trunk and then watch your dog find and pull out the squirrel one by one until they’ve found them all and are begging you to start the game all over again. For those with dogs on diets or\u00a0just a pet parent who wants a game for their pup that doesn’t require the constant refilling of treats, this food-free puzzle is for you. Also, since not all dogs are built the same neither is Hide-A-Squirrel, which comes in three different sizes.<\/p>\n For a while, KONG toys have been all the rage and a classic go-to toy for pups.
