Nina Ottosson - Dog Brick dog game

The story behind Nina Ottosson dog games:

Nina Ottosson is Swedish and has two adorable bouviers des Flandres. She also has two children who are very close in age, just one-and-half years between them. She noticed that unfortunately, she had less time to spend with her dogs when her children were born. She looked for something simple and educational that would keep her dogs busy and stimulate their intelligence, and this is how she ended up developing games and puzzles. And this is how her brand was born. Her games and puzzles gained in popularity and success and are now recommended by numerous veterinarians and canine behavioural scientists.

The Nina Ottosson Dog Brick - Benefits:

To stimulate your dog’s mind and satisfy its needs, your dog needs 3 types of daily activities:

- Physical activity (walks, outdoor games, etc.)

- Intellectual activity (training, agility, intellectual games)

- Chewing activities (eating and chew toys)

The Nina Ottosson Dog Brick allows your dog to satisfy its intellectual needs by stimulating its mind and its problem resolution skills. Preparing and using the game allows you to reinforce the bond you have with your dog and you’ll also have the daily opportunity to practice certain commands during your play session (sit, stay, etc.).

Nina Ottosson games allow you to:

• Combat boredom by keeping your dog busy
• Reduce destructive behaviour by exercising your dog's mind.
• Reinforce the bond you have with your dog.
• Enjoy itself doing something fun, regardless of your dog's age or size.

The Nina Ottosson Dog Brick - How it works:

The game consists of 8 red cubes with a cover and 4 plastic bones in the centre.

- If you place the treats in the red cubes; your dog has to open the lids with its paws or muzzle to get at the treat.

- If you place the treats under the white bones: your dog has to lift the bones to get at the treat.

- If you place the treats under the red cubes: your dog can only get at the treat by sliding the red cubes towards the middle after having removed the white bones!

You can help your dog a bit by demonstrating how the game works. You can also adjust the tone of your voice to encourage your dog to look for the treats.
