Agent 008 Dog Treat Puzzle

008 This is the most challenging game in our offering!

Due to its difficulty we recommend it for use by most advanced players with lots of experience in the field of solving intelligent puzzles.

The aim is to move the hat under which the treat is hidden to the position in which it can be knocked over and discovered. If your dog masters this game you can brag that he is a real genius!

Difficulty of this game comes from the "bridges" that connect the tracks forming the number "008" on the base. The dog has to learn how to move the "bridges" in order to advance to the section where the "hat" can be released from the track. The parent can regulate this challenge by positioning the "hat" close to the unlocking position and then gradually moving it away from that point as the dog learns the trick.

This game is recommended to train pet's mental activity and help their concentration and curiosity.  According to dog's behaviorists 10 minutes of mental stimulation through interactive games equals an hour of physical exercise. This is especially important for the dogs living in large cities where long walks are often difficult, for senior dogs with ailments that do not allow them for prolong outings, and those living in cold climates where going outside can put animal's health at risk.

How to Play:

1. Let your dog watch as you set up the game in order to stimulate its curiosity. Start slowly with one or two treats hidden beneath 1-2 hats. Then move the pieces from the opening on the left-hand side into the appropriate tracks.
2. Verbally encourage your dog to start searching. Be patient and show him how the game works. For instance, you could point to where a treat is waiting to be discovered.
3. Increase the level of difficulty by adding treats under more pieces only when your dog can solve the beginning puzzle without difficulty. That way he is constantly challenged, and the game provides a meaningful and rewarding activity for both of you.
