The Best Pet Toys to Treat Your Furry Friends
Here are some genius ways to keep your dogs entertained and occupied.
With International Pet Day (11 April) having just passed, it got us thinking: what are some of the best and most stimulating pet toys around? From puzzles to help with mental accuracy to snack-delivering gizmos, pet owners will stop at nothing to keep their fuzzy friends busy. However, some of the best options seem to be available abroad, but don’t worry, using Postbox Courier, you can get the following exclusive items to your door in SA:
A two-in-one toy, the Potaroma automatic dog treat dispenser allows your pet to get its own snack while also stimulating problem-solving skills. The dispenser comes with a paired button that has a fair bit of range on it — when a dog (or cat) presses the button, treats or food are auto-released onto the tray. Putting the button in another room (for example) will allow your dog to run back and forth, providing some exercise, while also getting a little snacky-snack in the process, while you relax.
Here it is in (hilarious) action:
Wickedbone Smart Bone
The Wickedbone Smart Bone is the dog toy of the future. It’s a soft, rubberised, safe, and chew-friendly bone that houses a toy which is able to be controlled or put into a ‘play’ mode to keep your pooch busy. You can program it to react in a variety of different ways, from making noises to moving on the floor, enticing your dog to play with it. You can even ‘drive’ it from the app on your phone. It’s pretty cool, and obviously not for aggressive chewers (not to be gnawed on), which should give bored pups a lot of enjoyment.
But, of course, when looking up these products, many of the innovative pet toy brands aren’t available in or don’t ship to South Africa. But Postbox Courier makes getting hold of them easy.
