Ziva is 15-18 months old, adopted from a Rescue so we have no idea what her prior life was like.
We've had her 3 months.
We bought the Kong - she likes peanut butter, cheese, or chicken in it. That's for when she's in the crate.
But the BEST toys are the ones from Nina Ottosson, IMO. They're puzzles in varying ability levels. We got 2 that were for mid-level adults. (Because we'd been told she was 2 yrs). She has such a grand time with them & it's FUN watching her figure it out! Kinda pricey, but well worth it.
There's a new "memory" puzzle from Nina that I just ordered: you let the dog watch you hide a treat under a couple of puzzle pieces - then see if she goes to the right pieces for the treats. After awhile, you spin the tray & see if she "remembers" the treat location. You can smear something smelly under each piece, so you know she's using more of her brain & not so much nose/smell.
Lots of fun for the humans!
