Monthly Features for Your Puppy
At Sit, Stay, ’N Play, we highlight select programs and services each month that support you and your pup and make life easier. These monthly features are available in store so we can connect with you, answer questions, and help you find what fits your dog best for you and them.
Purpose Through Problem Solving
One of the greatest gifts we can give our dogs isn't keeping them busy. It's giving them opportunities to think.
Whether they're searching for a hidden treat, figuring out how to empty a puzzle feeder, or working a stuffed Kong, they're doing more than passing the time. They're solving a problem. And every time they succeed, they're building confidence along the way.
Start Simple
You don't need fancy equipment to get started.
Hide a few treats in the grass, or toss them in your house.
Place a handful of cardboard boxes on the floor and let your dog discover which one holds the reward.
Roll a few treats inside an old towel and let them figure out how to unwrap the surprise.Simple games like these encourage your dog to use their nose, their brain, and their natural curiosity.
Make It Even More Fun
If your dog enjoys these little challenges, there are plenty of ways to build on them.
Stuff a Kong Classic with your dog's favorite food and freeze it.
Offer a puzzle feeder at mealtime.
Use a treat dispensing toy or a few freeze-dried treats to keep the game exciting.
These aren't just toys. They're tools that help keep your dog mentally active while giving them another opportunity to succeed.
Helping your dog think doesn't have to be complicated.
Sometimes the smallest challenge becomes the highlight of their day.
