This was my Christmas gift from momma. Do you know what it is? It's a Nina Ottosson Interactive Toy for doggies. This one is called The Brick. Mom says she makes some for cats too.
What your human does is hide yummy treats under the brown sliding things and the white little bones. Then it's our job to figure out how to get to the treats!!
Yum!! It's supposed to help stimulate your brain and give you something physical to do. Physical and mental stimulation is very important for us dogs to stay happy and healthy.
Mom said she was a little worried when buying it that I wouldn't get it, but was shocked and surprised when I had all the treats out in less than 5 minutes! Ha!!
That's because you're not just a princess, you're a genius!
ReplyDeletemmmhmmm, miss princess, you are a smarty pantz!

Oh, Princess. I don't know why your momma was shocked. You are obviously of the utmost supreme intelligences! My momma has been thinking about ordering some of those thingies for me and Brudder Ranger. I'm glad you told us how you liked it.

That looks so fun! Once you get the hang of it, is the challenge lost or is it like a new challenge each time you use it?
ReplyDeleteI have heard a ton about Nina Ottoson dog toys and am going to break down and buy one one of these days! You look like you had a blast with yours. Even if it was a couple months ago.
ReplyDeleteway to go!
ReplyDeleteThat'll teach Mama to underestimate you!
ReplyDeleteDon't mommas know that when there's food involved that we can accomplish anything?!?!?!

I want one for my granddog Duncan, right now!!!! That is just too clever (and I'm so thankful I don't have human grandbabies or I'd be broke!).
ReplyDeleteYou are so smart and beawooootiful Princess. I knew you could do the puzzle in no time! I hope your momma wasn't TOO TOO surprised!

Levi has a Nina Ottosson toy too! He loves it. It's interesting to see him use it because he's been forced to finesse the pegs with his mouth (gently) or with his muzzle rather than just using brute force.
ReplyDeleteOoh - Princess - I have EXACTLY the same toy!! I got it for my birthday last year and I love it!! Although I do get a bit impatient and instead of carefully nosing the parts aside to get the treat, I often just bash it with my paws and flip the whole thing over! Hee! Hee!
