Nina Ottosson calls her Zoo Active products 'party games' for dogs. Ten years ago she came up with the first of her dog puzzles, which she based on her dogs' natural movements and instincts.
The Zoo Active line of games asks your dog to combine wits, motor skills, and memory to get a treat and requires your dog to think--forget mindless chewing and squeaking.
The Dog Brick is a clever and inventive puzzle from Nina Ottosson Games that lets you hide treats in recesses located under a series of interlocking sliding blocks. Since the blocks can not be removed, your dog is required to locate the treats by sliding the blocks with either its paw or nose in order to retrieve the reward.
The Idea behind the Dog Brick is that you and your dog will have a fun and enjoyable time together. You demonstrate. The dog watches, listens and learns. Together you have fun!
All Nina Ottoson toys are made in Sweden, a country known for its environmental consciousness, and Ottosson is proud that her toys are as environmentally friendly as possible. The wood comes from timber that cannot be otherwise used, and the non-wooden parts are made from recycled plastic mixed with the fine sawdust that's a manufacturing byproduct of the wooden sections. And, as is common in Sweden, at the end of their useful lives, the toys can be left at recycling stations so the materials can be reused.
As with any toy, never leave your pet unattended. Product of Sweden.
