Hi Super Chewers! I’m Amanda and this is my silly pup, Tornado! If your pup is anything like mine, you know that mental activity is just as important as physical activity.

Tornado loves playing with his Super Chewer toys, but we also love transforming a lot of them for enrichment games! I put together a few recipes and how-to guides for freezing treats, meals, and nosework games!

1. Make Frozen Treat Puzzles

Step 1:

Gather ingredients & mix! We used peanut butter, yogurt, bananas, and blueberries here. 

Step 2:

Put ingredients into a plastic bag and make a small cut at the corner.

Step 3:

Squeeze into toys…

… and pop in the freezer. For best results, freeze overnight, and give to your pup to enjoy!

BONUS Step 4:

Get the clean-up crew to help out!

2. Feed Meals In Exciting New Ways

Step 1:

Break up treats or add kibble inside the toy.

Step 2:

Let your pup lick, drop, and roll treats out! (Optional Step 3: Make it even harder by wrapping the toys in towels!)

3. Create A Nose Work Challenge

Step 1:

Gather all your Super Chewer toys and sprinkle treats throughout.

Step 2:

Let your dog go to town!

Of course, you know your pup better than anyone. If there’s an ingredient used that doesn’t work for your dog, please substitute or leave out. Have fun making your Super Chewer toys do double the work, and enjoy extra snuggle time while your pup snoozes away after all the fun enrichment!
