Hey I was wondering what you all use on your dogs to combat boredom. I've tried the kong and a few other toys like that but still looking for that perfect answer. Anything would help!

I like my dogs better than I do most people!

Have you tried a tug-a-jug? My trainer suggested it and it is awesome! Its like a milk jug with a knotted rope coming out of one end. You fill it woith food and as they toss it around pieces of food will drop out. The jug is made of bullet proof plastic. Works great!

Is this a problem for all big dogs or just some? What about puppies? I have two small lab puppies and I would like to head this off it might become a problem.

Labra take his adivce!!!! You need to invest in something for those puppies, or you will be investing in new cloths and shoes!

Hey MoonStalker. Where did you find this tug-a-jug thing. I've never heard of that! I try to stay on top of new ways to outsmart my dogs so I get pretty excited when something comes up.

A trainer recommened it to me, and she just happened to sell them at her school. It really is the greatest thing I have used. My dog will mess with that thing for at least 2 hours trying to get evey last piece out. If I have something I have to do and she wants to help too much, I will give her a whole meal in it. Two hours of peace
