Some treats for tiny chumley in the mail this week, a box of goodies ordered from ihelppets.com in exchange for use of a couple of the little kielbasa's photos for an upcoming book, proceeds of which go to helping animals in need. A serendipitous event, considering I had already made up my mind to splurge on Nina Ottosson's Pyramid toy anyway, and a few others that I had planned to originally get at the pet store anyway for Christmas.
With a little bit of excess energy to burn, it seemed only fair to give tiny chumley an early Christmas. Much to tiny chumley's delight, I filled the pyramid toy with snackies, put it on the floor, and watched the little kielbasa assess his new toy. The verdict? Looky looky! :)

hee hee - in that video u hear his rapid fire intruder alert dino barking, and his 'heyyy, somebody make this thing gimme what i want!" bark.
haha, Wilson has the Kong version of the toy. The only difference is that the hole is closer to the bottom. It took him a while to figure it out, I had to bat it around to prove that yes, treats are coming out of it...if its hit hard enough.
that is so true! ya really gotta get the momentum going. I considered the kong version but realized that the larger kong shaped hole would probably be easier for Baxter to gnaw. Or it might have been my imagination. I was told the circular hole in this toy is about 3/4" in diameter. just small enough so this boy can't pick it up and make it bigger.
Hi Baxter!
I barked at your video too!
Hugs

oh goodness! We would have been so mad. Good luck with conquering the busy toy!

Oh, must get this for the wieners. If it puzzled a smart boy like you I know the kiddos are in for a treat! Go, B! You'll get that toy yet.

this just might have to go on Ammo's Christmas wish list. maybe santa will bring it for him!
I'm cheering for you Baxter. Hope you get into that toy...It looks like a tough one.
pawhugs... max
My favorite part is the door patrol break at :30 -- gotta make sure the house is still protected!
But, B, I think you were done in by the hardwood floor! How's a fella with no thumbs gonna conquer that toy when it just slides away from him?
i tried it on the rug,
i tried it on the floor,
i tried it practically everywhere, and still it leaves me wanting more! :)
Baxter!
I loved to hear you barking!
And that toy... I am sure you will conquer it very soon!
Kisses and hugs

Hi Baxter - it's me, Ike. My mom says I'm not the brightest bulb, but she gave me this toy and I figured it out in, like, 5 minutes!!! You got to knock it down, then get it to spin around kinda fast. The kibble will then just fly out! Use your paw, not your nose! I got so good at this that mom doesn't fill it with kibble any longer.
hee hee, well u see miss sio, it might be hard for u to believe considering how i uh, destuff my toyfriends, but i usually am pretty gentle with stuff and so wailin on this plastic thingy and makin all that noise is sumptin i guess i gotta work on. maybe in the summer when it is warm again, cuz i am so cold!! :)
Oh No! Did your mom find something you can;t figure out in 30 seconds? I think she is being sneaky....watch out, Baxter. There might be more coming.
Snuggles,

PS: I am cold too :o(
