How to Play
Start by filling the green ball's compartments with your favorite treats or dry food. Place the squirrels, plugging the treat holes to prevent the treats from falling out. To make it easier for your dog, you can start by inserting the stuffed animals only halfway. (You can increase the challenge by hiding the squirrels completely.) By sniffing and using their paws and mouth, your dog will pull the stuffed animals out of the ball, releasing the rewards. Dogs are smarter than you think—sometimes we just need to encourage them to exercise their minds a little.
Safety
Remember that this toy is not indestructible. Do not leave your pet unattended while playing. Regularly inspect the toy, and replace any damaged ones.
