The great thing about these treat toys is they can be filled with many different things like spray cheese, frozen vegetables, and liver paste, just to mention a few.

Apple Pie Toy Filling Recipe • 1 apple (cored and diced) • Cornstarch to thicken • 1/2 tsp cinnamon • 1/3 cup apple juice Combine ingredients and heat in microwave or on stove top until liquid is gone. Then stuff the toy. If your pet is overweight you can put their regular kibble in a treat ball to encourage more activity to get the food out. There are also treat mazes and puzzles to occupy your cat or dog. These enrichment toys are great for dogs that are kennelled or when you’re not around.
