(RENTAL) MENTAL ENRICHMENT PRODUCTS
Buying multiple and different enrichment options for your dog to have available at home can become a bit pricey over time, but it also uses up quite a bit of storage space!
On the other hand, it's important that we provide our pets with new and different mental enrichment options regularly. And so we've now made it possible for you to rent different food puzzles, as you need.
You can reserve the item(s) you want and pick it up/drop it off near Square One. Items already rented by someone else will only display a PRE-ORDER option after selecting.
#1 Ph.D. Food Puzzle (Max 3 Wks Rental)
This is probably one of my favourite go-to food puzzles! Mainly because its level of difficulty is one you can play around with and make it super easy for your pooch, and through time make it as challenging as it's meant to be.
That's why we think it belongs in our top Ph.D. level! 3 weeks may not be long enough for most dogs, but it's a good start before swapping for another (to give your dog a break, let them miss it a little) and renting it again later on!
At its highest difficulty, you would lock as many of the white pieces as you want and your dog will need to first unlock them in order to move the green pieces with their paw or nose to get to the piece.
The unlocking mechanism is what's going to really put your dog's brain to the test, as not every dog will have enough strength in their paw to pull on them to unlock (you can semi-lock each piece for easier pulling).

#3 Moderate Food Puzzle (Max 3 Wks Rental)
This is one of my favourite puzzles to throw inside the freezer with some treats, or even banana or apple puree. It's not the most challenging for a seasoned puzzle pooch, but it's still great for them to have to search for different kinds of treats (the less you put inside, the more they need to search!).

#4 Moderate Food Puzzle (Max 3 Wks Rental)
Push to start! This is one of those food puzzles that I might recommend leaving out, for your dog to let you know that they're good and ready for some enrichment fun. You can use the button as a cue from your dog that they're hungry, or that they feel like engaging with you.
You can always take a break from it by putting the puzzle away, and hiding some treats in it for next time!

#5 Challenging Food Puzzle (Max 3 Wks Rental)

This way, your dog can slowly be introduced to the idea of a puzzle and the skills required to become a pro.

#6 Challenging Food Puzzle (Max 3 Wks Rental)
This puzzle likes to keep your little one guessing a little. By having kibble or treat pieces hidden in different pockets your dog can then move around and smell/hear for where it landed, to then open that corresponding hatch.

It can feel challenging at first, but the most eager of dogs are likely to quickly master it and be able to accomplish it with precision, every time!

Do this by rewarding them with a treat each and every time they touch the buzzer button.
