Food Toys I cannot live without! LOL

     The smaller ball has a single small hole - only slightly larger than Bugsy's kibble, the inside of the small ball has ridges and grooves so the kibble gets in those too and it is really hard to get out.  At first I was concerned that the rewards weren't often enough for him to stay interested but the larger the challenge the more into it he is; therefore this works for us.

    The hole is very small though, Charlie Bear treats would be too big, I only use it with kibble and some pieces of kibble I break (Orjen Fish) to ensure that they CAN get out.  A 1/4 cup of kibble in the everlasting fun ball might take a minute or less for him to get out, guessing but that same amount might take 10 minutes from this because it releases slowly and the less that is in it the harder it is to get them out because of the grooves inside the ball.

    It is very loud as it crashes around though LOL

    Would the hole be big enough for Zuke's mini naturals treats? Those are the only kind of store bought treats he can have. He is just so used to only getting raw that any processed kibble or treat doesnt agree with him. Even TOTW kibble upsets his belly and will give him diarrhea. Zuke's mini's seem to be OK, I always use those with his food dispensing toys (Bob A Lot and Everlasting fun ball) and he hasnt had a problem with those yet. I dont usually use that many tho, that might be why. Normally I cut the Zukes mini's in half or even 4ths when I put them in the toys, otherwise he would go thru way to many of them.

    Bailey LOVES the Bob-A-Lot toy, but it is an inside toy (it has to be on a hard surface to work, it wont "bob" on the grass) and our house is really, really tiny. Would the Paw-zzle ball be a good outside toy? Seems like it would work well in the grass, plus he would have to search for treats that fall out.

    I have never used them so can't say.  the Orjen is a medium sized kibble so if you can break it into that size it should work.  And yes he takes it outside, especially if the noise is bugging me LOL

    Shimmer is absolutely in love with the Tug-a-Jug. She doesn't fling it around, so there's no danger, but it's her most favorite.

    The Tricky Treat Ball is a hit in our house, we have two of them and they never get old.

    I got a Busy Buddy Twist and Treat, and it's alright. It is kind of easy for the dogs but I can keep it interesting by switching it up for them.

     The good old Kong is also popular here.

    Zipper doesn't get puzzle toys much at all. He doesn't think he should spend that much energy on them, he would prefer to chew on a good bone. But the girls just love any treat toy they get their mouths on.
