Sniffing Fun for Puppies

On your mark, get set - sniff! The Junior Sniffing Carpet developed especially for puppies provides playful challenges and tasty surprises. The strategy toy is made up of several layers of fabric that form a dense carpet. Between the individual layers you can hide treats, which your darling should then sniff out with her paw or snout. The activity game can also be used for the daily feeding and is especially suitable for pets with a tendency to gobble down their food, as the food intake happens more slowly.

Inside, the carpet has a removable plastic panel that prevents it from crumpling. After the "sniffing units" the game should be cleaned regularly in the washing machine, for this you can easily remove the plastic panel.

Challenging your dog's mind and nose: strategy and intelligence toys for dogs

What are strategy games and their benefits?

Strategy games are a great way to keep your dog busy and entertained in everyday life. By encouraging the pet to solve problems and complete specific tasks, it keeps her mentally occupied and stimulated. Brainwork improves her intelligence and concentration, and finding treats also relieves stress and boosts self-confidence.

Intelligence games can also help prevent behavioural problems: Dogs that are busy are less inclined to show destructive behaviour out of boredom. Another plus point is that the joint activity improves your relationship with your four-legged friend and strengthens the bond between you. And by spending time together and trying something new, there's no shortage of fun as well.

Which toys do we offer?

We stock strategy toys for small and large dogs, as well as for younger and older dogs. Our range of plastic dog toys in particular offers a wide selection. Here, your four-legged friend has to prove her dexterity and master various tasks in order to get to the hidden treats: Sometimes cones have to be lifted and levers operated, at other times lids have to be pushed aside and drawers opened. Your dog can use her snout or paw as she prefers.

There are also sniffing toys where nose work is most important. The countless layers of fabric and compartments that can be filled with snacks invite your dog to rummage around extensively. Our junior sniffing carpet is especially suitable for puppies, while our larger sniffing carpets are ideal for senior dogs who suffer from dementia, for example. In addition, the toys are also very suitable for dogs that gobble down their food.

What should I look for when choosing a toy?

In principle, intelligence toys are suitable for all dogs, but there are a few aspects to consider: The toy should fit the weight and size of your dog, so if you have a rather small dog, you should use appropriate games with smaller cones, indentations and the like.

Safety is another important point: make sure that the toy does not pose a risk of injury to your four-legged friend and that she cannot accidentally swallow small parts. If your dog slobbers a lot, it's also worth choosing toys that are easy to clean - the plastic strategy games in our range are almost all dishwasher suitable. Also, don't leave your dog alone with the toy and help him if he gets stuck with a task. This prevents frustration and strengthens the bond between you.

You should also consider your dog's abilities and choose a difficulty level that suits her. Our strategy games come in three levels of difficulty, from easy to medium to hard, so that every pet can play. Last but not least, the game should meet your dog's preferences of course.
