Toys You Can Put Food/treats In For Training


 Share

Recommended Posts

Someone handy with a sewing machine should be able to make you something if you find a design you like.

I make tugging pouches and sell them at my agility club (similar to the link someone sent you but the fleece ends are a little different) but am in Vic. Gotta be an 'agility addict' in your own state who makes their own if you ask around.

Can post a photo if you want.

The ones made from sturdier materials last, but many dogs don't like to go straight to the 'hard stuff' and you need to start with more 'user friendly' materials first. These don't last all that long once your dog discovers the joy of the food inside - LOL, so if you are continually buying from OS they can become an expensive option.

Can always start with the good old chicken neck in a sock..... cheap alternative and most dogs love it.

A cheesestick is another good alternative for dogs that won't interact with a toy - I have some dogs in class that won't even look at a toy but will chase a cheesestick and hold it in their mouths and 'tug' quite happily.

(and a great reward when they tug firmly!)

I have seen one made from those car seat strap covers (you get them from the cheapie stores for like $2 a packet of two and they are sheepskin sort of material). Then you stitch a being of webbing through the middle and stitch top and bottom.
