Find It Game

Truffles loves to "find it."

I place treats hidden around furniture etc when he's not in the room. Then I bring him in the room and say find it.

I will walk to an easy seeable treat, snap my fingers at it and say, "find it." This way he knows something is there if he doesn't see it. You do not have to use treats, you can use your dogs favorite toy. 

* Be careful as this could also make your dog want to go to the bathroom. 🐶

*Remember dogs are colored blind. I used to tell Truffles to get his blue monkey. Then I remembered he can't see colors. If your treat is the color of your floor, they can't see the treat and have to use there since of smell. Dogs possess only two types of cones and can only discern blue and yellow - this limited color perception is called dichromatic vision.
