As a millennial who has no human children yet, my dog is my whole world. With that comes all the researching and investing into interactive dog toys. All dogs need some type of mental stimulation to stay sane. Certain breeds need more than others based on genetics. For example Aussie, (herding breed) she needs a tone of mental and physical stimulation to keep her mind at ease and so she doesn’t get bored and do unwanted behaviors. Amazon is a great way to find some affordable and fun interactive dog toys for your pup.
Wobble Wag Giggle Ball
Fun for dogs of all sizes. This ball has four spaces making it easy for dogs to pick it up and carry it. With just a nudge of the nose the sounds go off. The sound was created to engage a dogs natural curiosity. If you dog is sensitive to noise this is not the toy for you. Also not recommended for hard floor surfaces as it can get loud.
Mushroom Squeaky Hide and Seek Toy
The hide and seek game will challenge your dogs natural ability to dig mushrooms for hidden treats while keeping their spirits active. There are squeakers and crinkle material. Aussies new thing is crinkle toys. Its also easier when you live in an apartment.
Starmark Bob-A-Lot
Exercise and feed your dog at the same time. This is one of my top toys I recommend to all puppies and really any dog with lots of energy, This is an easy way to burn some energy and make them work for their food and slow them down. Its great for bad weather days as well. It has adjustable openings at the top and bottom to accommodate most treats/food. Weighted anti-slip bottom makes the toy wobble erratically enticing your dog to play.
DR Catch Dog Puzzle Feeder
This fun interactive puzzle toy is great to make your dog work by using their sense of smell. They can use their tongue, paws or nose to move the blockers to get the toys.
TRIXIE Flip Board Strategy Game, Intermediate Dog Puzzle Toy, Level 2 Activity
This is a great level 2 toy for any dogs that find the basic toys too easy. This will stump them and make them work harder to find the treats. This has a lift, flip and slide to discover treats. It has 3 different treat-hiding compartments to challenge your pup. This is one of Aussies more difficult games and it takes her maybe 5 minutes longer to process.
Tomahauk Snuffle Mat
Improve your dogs foraging skills with this snuffle mat. Hide treats or food in between the fabric pieces and watch your dog scavenge for their food. Its also a great slow feeder for dogs who ingest their food too fast. It is also machine washable which is always a plus.
