Planet Blue Dog

Skill Level: Beginner

Dog Magic is a relatively easy game for dogs to play, where they have to dislodge bones to access hidden treats. You may choose to put treats under one, several or all of the bones, to vary the difficulty of the game. By switching the location of the treat, you can encourage him to really focus and use his nose to seek out treasure!

Nina Ottoson offers a range of durable interactive games to stimulate a dog’s brain and reinforcing his relationship with people.

Each design has a unique mechanism that requires mental as well as physical dexterity to work through the challenges and reveal hidden food rewards. They can be set to differing levels of complexity, to satisfy all ages and breeds of dog.

Whether you have a ‘Forrest Gump’ or an ‘Albert Einstein’, there is a Nina Ottosson game design to suit every dog!

Tips:
1.) It may help to have the dog on a leash when introducing the Interactive Dog Games, to encourage controlled play.
2.) Keep play sessions short and fun, always trying to end on a positive, successful note.
3.) Rather than using lots of extra treats, encourage the dog to ‘learn to earn’ by giving part of his daily ration of food in the Interactive Dog Game.
4.) To encourage your dog just to use his nose – try placing the toy on a higher surface like a chair, this is also good if your dog is recovering from an injury.
5.) If the dog has already been taught ‘Target Training’, then it is possible to teach him to dislodge the bones by either his nose or paw on command. Smart dogs can even switch between the two.

Have fun!
