MICE is a varied game of skill for dogs or other small animals (such as cats, rabbits, ferrets) who want to keep them mentally occupied in order to provide their pet with an alternative, species-appropriate activity. The game has a difficulty level of 1 to 3 paws (on a scale from 1 - easy to 4 - very difficult). The letters are formed from the individual pieces. These cover openings in which the dry treats are hidden as motivation for the animal. This game design offers a variety of obstacles that the animal has to solve in order to reach the hidden rewards. By adding the game pieces (rollers) to the designated openings, the individual pieces of letters are blocked and the level of difficulty is increased. The game trains concentration and dexterity and encourages natural instincts such as curiosity, play instinct and sense of smell. Thanks to the many design options, this game can be used by both beginners and advanced players.

And this is how it works:

Step 1: Hide any number of treats in the hiding places under the moving parts and then cover them up.

Step 2: Encourage your dog - for example by showing him where a reward is waiting for him - to start searching.

Step 3: The animal gets to the rewards by pushing the moving elements to one side and uncovering the openings.

Tip:

Be patient, show your dog how the game works and motivate him to search. This will ensure that your pet enjoys playing together and completes the task correctly. This will boost your dog's self-confidence.

Never let your pet play unobserved and intervene if it starts to bite the toy. Inspect the toy regularly for damage, such as splinters of wood. Wipe the product with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh cleaning agents.

What else should I bear in mind?

MICE is made of certified wood that has been coated with a layer of transparent water-based varnish that is harmless to humans and animals. Please protect the game from moisture, otherwise the wooden parts may swell. Only use dry snacks for playing.

Intelligence games make a significant contribution to providing dogs with meaningful and species-appropriate activities that stimulate their natural instincts. The bond between animal and owner is strengthened and many behavioural problems (e.g. separation anxiety, aggression and frustration) can be eliminated.

MICE is not a children's toy!
