Mind Puzzle Game for Your Dog
-
Muffin Tin and Balls
-
Place a treat and ball in each cup
-
and sit back and watch your dog think!
-
This simple game is more complex than it looks!
-
There is a slightly smaller smooth black squash ball
-
in the first cup that Jessie goes to.
-
She keeps working at it, despite learning that there are
-
treats under the other balls too!
-
She doesn't give up easily, nor ask for help!
-
Problem solving is a good skill to build in your service dog.
-
Playing mind games is one way to do it.
-
On another trial, she focusses on the blue dryer ball, moving it around.
-
Use crumbled paper balls to make it easier.
-
Try other objects too! This is a good way to motivate your service dog to
-
pick up objects she does not like such as metal.
-
Have fun!
