Tug-E-Nuff Clam

Tug-E-Nuff Clam

This has been a great hit with my 7 month old labrabradoodle puppy. He is a very fussy eater, but if I put his kibble into the clam and throw it for him to fetch, he eats happily and asks for a refill and another throw.

Great idea, but …!

My Swiss Shepherd loves to ‘discover’ things and lives a challenge but when introduced to the clam her priority was to chew it open rather than nose it open. Sadly it didn’t stay pristine for long despite being introduced as per video. I’m not sure what I could have done differently for it not to be chewed open?

There’s always one ….

Well, I watched the YouTube video about letting the dog see you put treats into the clam, and holding it slightly open for him to take the treats out ( for the first time you use it) but Benson grabbed the clam, threw the treats on the floor and ran off laughing and has had masses of fun with the empty clam for AGES , guarding it possessively whenever we’ve tried to take it away to put treats in it as per its “ proper” use. So - great toy in itself; no time to muck around putting treats in it! He’s an ultra extreme chewer so we are watching it nervously but so far he seems to be enjoying its size and texture and basically just cuddling it. Weird little puppy that he is! Hopefully one day soon we’ll get our act together and use it as intended!!
