An active, ingenious game for you and your dog!
To play, the dog looks for treats by pulling out flaps in different directions. In each flap there is a depression where a treat can be hidden. You can increase the degree of difficulty by locking the flaps using the plugs on the top.
Begin by placing treats in all the flaps that can be pulled out. Allow the dog to watch as you put in the treats. You can make it a little easier for your dog the first few times by not pushing a flap in all the way—that way the dog can smell and see the treat. Try to get the dog to push the flap with its nose or paw in order to pull out the flap and get the treat. Once the dog begins to understand how the flaps work, make it more difficult by pushing the flaps all the way in before the dog begins to look for the treats.
To increase the degree of difficulty even more, lock some of the flaps using the plugs on the top. The dog then has to learn how to lift up the plugs in order to pull out the flaps. A good tip is to place a treat under a plug. Once the dog has understood how the plug works, all the flaps can be locked.
If the dog tries to bite the game or the plug, place your hand over it and stop the game. Once the dog has calmed down, allow the dog to try again. If the dog wants to bite repeatedly, show the dog how to play the game using only its paw. If the dog wants to jump on the game or use its paw too violently, show the dog how to play the game using its nose! A good tip is to place the Dog Casino on a stool that has been adapted to the size of the dog. Attach a piece of string to each of the flaps; the dog can use the string to pull to open the flaps.
The idea is for you and your dog/cat to have a pleasant and rewarding time together. The Dog Casino game can enhance your relationship with your pet. As you teach, your dog looks, listens, and learns. Be sure to offer praise when the dogs succeeds. Together you will have fun!
Important—Do not let the dog chew or bite the toy, or play with/chew the blocks. Use the toy together with your pet, never leaving the pet and toy unattended. Designed only for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, the Dog Casino is not a toy for a child.
