IT’S A universally understood reality that dogs definitely like to play. 

Bring out a rope toy and they’ll play pull of war, toss a ball and they’ll speed after it or utilize a puzzle and they’ll anxiously try to find the treats within.

But one lady, a dog whizz, has actually revealed we’ve all been utilizing these puzzles and lick-mats all incorrect and it’s uninteresting our furry buddies. 

“In case you need to hear this, your dog doesn’t need this covered in spreadable food they can lick,” she explained while holding up a mat with small holes in it. 

She then produced a 2nd mat, which included bigger squares, as she continued: “Or this, having every hole filled with chunky food.” 

Mrs P went on to explain that other toys that hold treats, such as rounded plastic ones or puzzles, don’t require them stuffed. 

“Or to come up with amazing artistic creations… Unless that’s your thing,” she said. 

“Most dogs find it far more rewarding, even on a mat like this, to search and find the food.” 

Picking up the puzzle toy, she continued: “And in video games like this it ends up being uninteresting if the food is all over. 

“But it plays more to their natural instincts to search and look for food if they have to uncover layers and find the goodies hidden within.” 

In the caption, TikTok user @nofussfill included: “Make the most of your dog’s enrichment toys”. 

People fasted to discuss the helpful clip as one individual composed: “Thank you! It’s hard for me to do it if it isn’t perfect!”

Another said: “Good point! Thanks for the reminder!” 

While others shared the creative methods they inhabit their dogs as one individual composed: “I place multiple puzzles around my house like a parkour so they will not get bored from one puzzle”.

“I saw a great one with treats hidden in rolled up tea towels then tied together in a knot!” a second said. 

While a 3rd shared: “I just throw a handful of kibble in the backyard for him to sniff out and he LOVES it and is exhausted after!” 

Mrs P responded: “That’s a great one isn’t it. They do love that, don’t they,” followed by a red heart emoji.
