I've got a hard to amuse for very long doxie. Chaucer figures stuff out almost disturbingly quickly....and, like his mommy, once the challenge is gone, it's no fun. (I swear how much Chaucer, who is a complete mama's boy, is like the dog version of me is scary).
He likes Kongs and all, but he's gotten the extracting food from it thing pretty well down, and the only other game that holds his attention for LONG periods of time is fetch, which requires my complete attention (thus making it difficult to do things like cook meals)
Anyway, I finally found a winner toy that he can't get enough of. The small size "Buster Cube" that they sell at PetsMart is awesome. Plus, I can fill it with regular Eukanuba, so there's no mess or sticky stuff (like the peanut butter he manages to smear everywhere) all over the floor when he plays with it. Anyway, it was a pricey little toy ($13 for a piece of plactic with a couple holes), but I'd recommend it for long term entertainment value.
