Dogs Deserve Challenge Too!


It’s always so much fun when we empty a berry container at our house. We put a treat in the container then snap it shut and slide it to Bailey. It usually takes her about five to ten minutes, but eventually she is able to open the container and get the treat. A delicious reward for a job well done! Below are a few other fun ideas to challenge and entertain your doggie. Note: I always tell Bailey to stay in the kitchen if it’s a mess is at all possible.

Treat inside a cereal box (plastic bag removed)
Plastic bottle (no lid) with small treats or kibble inside
Plastic water bottle wrapped in an old t-shirt or tied into an old tube sock
Butter tub with a treat or kibble
Tennis ball wrapped with an old shirt and tied with a rope
An empty milk jug
A mostly empty peanut butter container (no lid)

There are so many creative ways you can give your dog simple and fun challenges. I hope these give you a few ideas.
