Paw Hide

Is that for me?
What is Cody so excited about? Why, its all the new puzzles he got this weekend! We have 5 new food puzzles, and a new food toy! This boy is so clever that I have to get more puzzles and toys to engage that brilliant brain of his. It doesn't take him much time at all to master new games, and the Kyjen Dog Games Paw Hide is no exception!
This may look easy, but looks are deceiving! Each of those cups sit in a deep pocket. While a dog can paw one out it isn't very successful. Instead, the most efficient way is to bite the cups and lift them out. Considering that the cups are about as wide as Cody can open his mouth, this takes a lot of mouth coordination.
First Cody tried pawing at it, and he did get one out. The others didn't cooperate though, so it was ont a new method. The mouth method!
Here is video of the very first time Cody got the puzzle. Look how fast he figures it out!
Now, mean ol' foster mom isn't content to put all of Cody's food in one puzzle! After the first round I put the rest of his kibble in there for a second go! Not only does this double the mental stimulation and the delicious fun, but I wanted to see how fast he did it a second time. No hesitation on Cody's part - he's got this puzzle beat!
Onto the next puzzle! We'll keep rotating between puzzles and so the Paw Hide will return, but the search to stump this brilliant boy continues!
Please foster momma, can we go a third round?
