Hello!!
I recently got a trainer because my 2 year old has been acting out. The trainer suggested giving Cyrus more mental stimulation. Iāve bought him 2 kongs, which have been stuffed with his meal (heās on raw), bacon, cheese, yogurt, and sardines. Heās not interested in any of it. Heāll lick it at first, then give up.
I tried a treat ball...no interest. The treats have been sitting in the ball for 2 weeks!
Iāve also tried putting some treats in a water bottle with holes so he has to dispense it. The first couple of times worked, but now he just chews on the bottle. Snore.
The last game I tried was filling up a box with toilet paper rolls, then adding treats. He figured that sucker out in 10 seconds.
Does anyone have any other ideas?! OR any other products.
Raw feeders: by giving him a meaty bone that he needs to chew on...does that count as mental stimulation? The trainer said it doesnāt, but heās still working for his food so I donāt see why not.
Thank you!!
