Review on 🧩 TRIXIE Dog Activity: Pet Strategy Games & Interactive Puzzles - Optimize Mental Stimulation by Sara White

Little Mikey (Schnoodle) took a little time to figure out what to do to make the treat fall out, several sessions with it. We had to spin containers for him, hold his paw and point it at the cylinder, twist it, etc., but then obviously a lightbulb went dim in his canine brain and he's been money ever since. happy when he sees us uploading it and seems to think it's a lot of fun. This gives his canine brain some stimulation, makes him think a little, which is very necessary for many dogs. Plus, it's just so darn cute to see him spin those tubes with his paw and then frantically gobble down his reward. The rapid rotation of the tube causes centrifugal force to prevent food from falling out of the rapidly rotating tube when it is upside down. vertically down, but as the rotation slows down, there is a sweet spot when it slows down so that gravity allows the treat to fall out of the tube. Mikey seems to have figured this out to some degree, as he becomes more alert as the tube slows down. You want to fill the tubes with carefully selected dog treats. The food balls should not be so small that they fall out of the tubes all at once when the tube becomes vertical, but they should be large enough to offer little resistance to falling out through the holes at the ends of the tubes. I think if you had the right size dog food to work with this device and if Fido was hungry enough to work for lunch it would have worked, but we didn't. We only used dog treats.
