Fun Dog Toy Recipes

Hey there! Today I wanted to go over some fun recipe tips that you can use for any toy that is hollow and solid, (These most likely would not work if you tried to stuff it in a squeaky toy that has no fluff in it.) So here we go!

Layers
Try a simple layering. Add a very yummy treat (like bacon) on the hardest-to-get-to layer. An OK treat (like a store-bought treat) on the not-really-hard-to-get-to layer. Then some dog kibble or canned food on the easiest-to-get-to layer

Let Some Poke Out
Let a tiny bit of a pretty good treat stick out an opening so that it gets them on a great start

Chill It
Put one in the fridge for a few hours then give it to your dog. It will be a nice challenge to get to! Consider having two so one can be freezing while your dog is playing with the other. Chilling is a great way to beat the heat this summer!

Hollow toys are perfect for giving your dog a very rewarding puzzle. They will most likely enjoy it very much. I know Zena and Annabelle enjoy playing with their puzzle toys. I hope your dogs do too!
