Q: When/why would you use this bowl?
The Wobble Bowl helps build confidence as well as impulse control. Have you ever seen your pup get shy around new things, especially things that are loud or fast moving? Or, does your dog get over stimulated at times during play? For these pups, the tasty treats you place inside this bowl will motivate them to be patient. If they keep working at it - something tasty will come their way! For overly excited pooches that just aren't patient enough, this Wobble Bowl can teach them to slow down and ‘solve it’ in order to get their reward - tasty Fig & Tyler Treats! For an even longer lasting challenge, try mixing the treats with plain Greek yogurt or pumpkin puree and spread it over the inside surface before freezing the bowl overnight!
Q: What type of treats would you use with this bowl?
Out of all the Fig & Tyler treats you could use with the Wobble Bowl or another licky mat, my favorite is Pacific rockfish as it is easy to crumble. Here are a few ways I have used these treats in the past:
• Mix crumbled treats with plain Greek yogurt and spread across bowl
• Mix crumbled treats with peanut butter and spread on bowl (use a runny brand or water down a thick one with hot water; ensure the peanut butter does not contain xylitol, an artificial sweetener which is extremely toxic for dogs)
• Mix crumbled treats with smashed sweet potatoes and spread across bowl
• Sprinkle crushed treats on the bottom bowl and smear on top any wet dog/cat food or pet-friendly spreadable food
