The TURTLE is a challenging game of skill invented by My Intelligent Dogs®. This two-storey construction has tracks and depressions carved in it. There are also cylinders, caps and drawers that will reveal hidden treats to your pet if he moves, lifts or pulls them in the right way.

The game is a multi-dimensional challenge for your dog as it has to resolve the "obstacles" both vertically and horizontally. Your pet will develop its skill and patience which will certainly help it master the task. Your dog will be able to train its fine motor skills and learn how to coordinate various movements.

The basic version of this game comes with 4 drawers, 9 cylinders + 13 caps. 

Here's how it works:

Step 1: Hide suitable treats inside the drawers and under the cylinders and the caps.

Step2: Encourage your dog to play the game - for example, you can show where it can find his reward.

Step3: Your dog moves and lifts the cylinders and the caps to find the hidden treats. Some of the hiding places are additionally blocked by the cylinders – your dog has to remove them if it wants to find all the rewards. Your dog also has to move the lateral caps located on the lower level of the game and open the drawers.

Step4: Praise your dog each time it finds something and let your dog look for other treats.

Hints:
Play with your dog and encourage it to solve the task. Stay calm, be patient and continue to explain the game to your dog until it understands. 

Do not let your dog play unsupervised and intervene when it starts to bite the game.

Let your dog search for the treats no longer than 10 minutes, otherwise it might lose its interest in the game. Distract your dog with something else and put the game away for a little while.

A few days break from the TURTLE and playing with other games from My Intelligent Dogs® games collection will let your dog enjoy the TURTLE game anew each time you give it to your dog.

Suitable treats:
Only dry dog snacks should be used with the TURTLE.
