Jolly Pets® Brainy Bones™ Whirl-a-Bone Treat Dispensing Dog Toy

Jolly Pets® Brainy Bones™ Whirl-a-Bone Treat Dispensing Dog Toy is a challenge designed to keep your dog excited and entertained!

Whirl-a-Bone is USA engineered and designed. It's a durable pet-safe toy made of non-toxic recyclable rubber, and it’s easy to clean.

The Whirl-a-Bone treat dispensing puzzle toy has a rotating hatch that covers and hides treats inside its hollowed center. Just whirl open the hatch, hide your dogs favorite treats inside, then close it and let your dog discover the hidden treats.

The challenge: Using his or her problem-solving skills, your dog must learn to paw, or mouth, and manipulate the hatch and whirl it around in either direction in order to access and win the hidden treats inside. Watch as the gradual exposure of the treats intensifies your dog's natural instinct and eagerness to learn and work at winning his or her reward.

Important: Do not let your dog chew on this toy. Brainy Bones are not chew toys, they are puzzle toys made for playing and learning.

Safety Note: The safety of your dog is your responsibility. Never leave your dog unsupervised while playing with any Brainy Bones puzzle toys.

Easy Cleaning Care: Whirl-a-Bone was designed to be easily disassembled and reassembled for a thorough cleaning. To hand wash, use warm water and a mild, non-toxic dishwashing soap. First, dip it in the soapy water, then pull the rotating hatch out of the socket, wash parts, then reassemble it while still in the soapy water. After assembly, rinse thoroughly and dry. When using a dishwasher, do not use the dry cycle. Remove from dishwasher, reassemble, then store it away until your furry friends next playtime. Tip: Always use the soapy water to disassemble and reassemble.

Instructions for Use:

1. When demonstrating Whirl-a-Bone to your dog, let your dog see you place his or her favorite treat inside the toy. First, let your dog see you whirl open the hatch to expose the hidden treat cavity; repeat this several times. Then, fill the treat cavity with treats. Next, whirl the hatch around just enough to cover and hide a portion of the treats.

2. Then, place Whirl-a-Bone on the floor and move it around until the treats begin to fall on the floor. Allow your furry friend to move forward and eat the treats. After your dog wins the treats on the floor, he or she will become curious to the remaining treats inside the toy. At that point, immediately pick up the toy and praise him or her for watching your demonstration. Repeat if necessary

3. Once your dog understands and enjoys the Whirl-a-Bone puzzle toy at this level, you can then begin to gradually increase the challenge and degree of difficulty.

4. When ready, fill the toy with more treats, then close it a little more than the previous level. Be sure to let your dog win by eating the exposed treats before each level increase. Be patient with each increase, and don't rush your dog. Have fun as this is a great time to bond with the love and attention you're giving.
