For the Dog Worker, I use mostly Zukes because they fit well under the cylindrical puzzle pieces. JOAN: For the easier puzzles, I use cheese, kibble (junk food for my dogs that are fed raw), Zukes, Nothing But… Treats. PAWS: Is there anything special about the treats that you use?

I taught Carly to slide the inner sections of the game to get to the treats.

I taught Carly to pick up the puzzle piece from the game and put it in the bowl.

I taught Carly to put the puzzle piece in the bowl.

I used a single puzzle piece and did not have the game or bowl with me. I do very short training sessions and have a plan for what I want to accomplish. First, I use a clicker and train individual parts of the puzzles before I put them together. But there are some standard things that I do for all puzzles. JOAN: As in all the puzzles I’ve trained, I’ve adjusted my training as I go. PAWS: You are obviously systematic about teaching this puzzle. Then, I had a moment of insanity and decided that it would be fun to train her to remove the pieces and place them in the bowl. So, I thought I’d train her to remove the bones and drop them outside the game. Unfortunately, she sometimes dropped them in the opening which meant she couldn’t move the pie shaped pieces to get the treats unless she picked up the piece again. JOAN: When I started working on the puzzle with Carly, she would remove the bone pieces from the edge of the puzzle and drop them randomly. In the Twister, if bones are removed out of order, the dog can’t get to the treats. In the other puzzles the dog got the treat as soon as they removed a puzzle piece or did a short sequence. Second, there wasn’t a clear relation between taking out a puzzle piece and being able to get a treat. First, my decision to have her put the removable puzzle pieces in a bowl. JOAN: Yes, there were two things that added to the difficulty. PAWS: Is this the hardest puzzle you have taught?

Tips: For an easier level 1 game, unscrew and remove the rotating disc. Not a toy for children, only for animals. Note: Play together with your dog and supervise closely so he does not bite or chew on the game or the blocks. The block with treats hidden has to be moved between the games to an opening at the end, in order to get the treats out. When the dog understands how the game works, you can put together as many games as you want, of the difficulty level that your dog needs.

If needed, help the dog by moving a block towards an opening, so the dog understands that there are treats underneath the block.
