Hide A Bee Puzzle Plush
Product Description
It comes with three squeaker bees (about 5 in long) that you hide inside the hive. Your dog's mission--and we think he'll decide to accept it--is to stalk those buzzy bees and pull them out of the holes in the hive.
This toy should be used only when you are there to help your dog learn how to use the toy properly (otherwise the dog could become frustrated and chew on the toys and ruin them).
You also need to be there to replace the squeaker toys once they have been removed. For additional fun and variety, place favorite pet treats or other toys inside the hive.
The Hide-A-Bee dog toy is 7" wide and 7-1/2" tall.
Machine-washable fabric is made with safe, non-toxic materials.

How to Choose the Right Dog Toy Choosing the right dog toy is not as simple as going to your nearest pet supply store, pulling something off the shelf and laying your money down. Just as with children¡¦s toys, it requires some consideration ¡Kafter all¡Kdogs are our babies too. 1. Use toys that are made specifically for dogs. Human tennis balls, for instance, will get torn up by hearty chewers¡Kand since canines don¡¦t care about their ¡§serve"...there are tennis balls designed especially for the dog set. 2. Choose a toy that is right for your dog¡¦s size. Make sure it¡¦s big enough and can't be swallowed. 3. Pick toys in accordance with your dog¡¦s chewing habits. The tougher the chewer, the tougher the toy. 4. Make sure the toy is made of non-toxic materials and avoid ones that can splinter or break off in chunks. 5. Choose toys that encourage exercise and appeal to your dog¡¦s natural penchant for fetching and tug-of-war. Frisbees, balls, ropes and tugs all fill the bill, as well as allow for interaction with humans. 6. Look for practical toys that are easy to clean and good for your dog¡¦s teeth and gums. There are also toys that freshen breath. 7. Find toys that are challenging and might decrease boredom or alleviate separation anxiety while you¡¦re away. For instance, puzzle toys or toys that require your dog to work for treats. by Melissa Maroff |
