  1. Kanoodle Dog Edition treat puzzle Would be perfect to get my older dogs brains working and learning some fun new skills!!!

  2. I need to check out the Kanoodle Dog Edition for my two dogs. I would definitely have to start out with the easier version until they understand how it works and then move them up to the harder version
