Better than regular toys

Treat dispensing toys are great for extra enrichment for cats and dogs.  The pictured toys are filled with frozen, mashed banana, dog food, and then sealed with peanut butter.  Our dogs love them!  
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.  Some pet owners will bring their own treat dispensing toys to their appointment for vaccines or nail trims. This is a great way to distract the animal for the procedures being done.
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. This is helpful for preventing or dealing with separation anxiety.
