Tapua Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I got the idea from a ACD Kennels who created this which I copied for my guys. I love this new toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkehre Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 These are called activity boxes or enrichment boxes and are awesome. Well done Tap. We are in the process of making ours. We're actually working on it right now. We're plugging off 2 of the bottom tubes so we can fill them with sand for stability. Unfortunately we have the same problem as you did, 3 way corner pieces don't seem to be readily available in Australia so makes it a bit trickier designing it and putting it together and also wastes some precious hanging space. But still excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpette Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 That is absolutely gorgeous TSD. Even the cat wants to have a go Lablover I am certain that is what the Rotty version would look like at about 6 weeks old, if not sooner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to use the puppy toy frame only when the pups are inside. My example above was on a hot stinking day. My pups generally as they mature like to roam around my backyard which is 1/2 acre with lots of different surfaces and tunnels etc. Plus they play tug with each other (my old clothes).

How old were the pups, Spotted Devil? I think about 6 weeks give or take...they are big pups for sure! I was going to do the frame of dangly stuff but by the time they had forced themselves through the brooms, rakes and cover in the back yard I realised it would be obsolete :laugh: GP sounds delighted with his new pup by the way!

All they got were their toes nibbled :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkehre Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 This is a pic of our enrichment box, almost complete, just gotta pick up our plastic chain lengths. We'll be changing toys around, adding more heady plastic and steel kitchen utensils as the puppies mature :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm going to try to build one that can withstand curious adult foxes (yes, real ones - rescues)... any suggestions? Adult foxes can be very destructive, and one in particular has been known to eat things he shouldn't... errr! When we have kits in care, I'll be amending the design to make some for them too... T.
