Keeping a puppy occupied is no easy feat, as my family found out with our Yorkshire Terrier named Mason. Our now-1-year-old furry friend is abound with energy and too clever for the typical puppy puzzle. Luckily, we found a gem product to keep him busy just on Amazon Pet Day: the Nina Ottosson by Outward Hound Wobble Bowl.
The wobble bowl is a disk-like container that you pour dog food or a few treats into, and it has a non-slip, rounded base that will tip back and forth as your dog swats it without scooting across the floor. As your dog bats at the wobble bowl, food will go through a maze inside and fall out of holes at the side of the bowl, rewarding your diligent pup.

Mason took to the wobble bowl right away, instantly understanding what he needed to do to get his favorite Pupperoni treats or his kibble. He's gotten skilled enough at it that it only takes him about five minutes to get all of his treats out, but I've noticed that completing the puzzle—and reaping the rewards—seems to stimulate and satisfy him enough that he'll lay down after. This is an amazing tool to have up my sleeve when he's crying at me for attention or treats while I'm occupied with work.
