Dog Intelligence Toy


I found this dog toy at Ross.  Supposedly, your intelligent dog will learn to slide a cover over with his nose and get a hidden treat.  It was $8.

The photo of the golden retriever enticed me.  I imagined Kona enjoying trying to figure out this puzzle.

I hid four of his favorite salmon snacks under each cover.  Four!  Lucky dog . . . I usually give him just one at a time.

This is what he thought of it.

I even slid one open and placed it near to him.  Nope.  Not interested.  Reminds me of the time I bought him a rubber chicken.  Click here to read that story.

LOL! Our old dog would have torn the plastic apart to get to a treat.

Intelligence is hard to measure.

That is so funny. His enthusiasm is underwhelming. Now, maybe if those were pieces of prime rib . . .

HAHA!. aw.. maybe too much work for a treat? Is he a "sniffer"? I saw a Pet Hui show that if your dog is a sniffer, you should let them exercise their noses with smelling games

Ahahaha, I shoulda done that, Mich.

Yup Jenny . . . that's Kona.

I gave it to Leslie, Aunty. She has two dogs. She said that it'll probably get torn apart.

I shoulda tried prime rib, Lorna. LOL!

Jos, Kona is such a scaredy cat. I think he's scared of it.

Funny, Kat.

So smart your dog, N.

Maybe you're right, Erick.

Thanks, Kay.
