Towel treats

Dogs are social, intelligent and active animals so it’s important to give them opportunities to exercise their bodies and minds.

Enrichment games, like towel treats, are a great way to do this – and the best part is, you can make it yourself with inexpensive items. Your dog can sniff and search out treats hidden in the towel.

Our coaches at Dog School recommend using these tactile creations to keep dogs content and occupied.

What you'll need to make towel treats

  • An old towel, blanket or t-shirt
  • kibble or dog treats

How to do it

Sprinkle some treats on the towel, blanket or t-shirt and roll it up. Then let your dog work it out!

For more experienced or determined dogs, try ripping the fabric into strips and plaiting them with the treats hidden in the plaits.
