We break up schmackos and shove them in Bruno's, and usually stick a milky bone in there too. Keeps him entertained!

The possibilities are endless!! I use nature diet, apple slices, banana and peanut butter, cheese, mushed up vegetables, tripe etc etc. I used frozen natural yoghurt and peanut butter frozen in the summer, but she doesn't like them frozen unless it's really hot. Does take longer to get through when frozen though!

Rocky loves Banana in his, goes mental with it, frozen or not frozen up to you, but if im going out for a while ill take out a frozen one so it lasts a little longer.

Take a look at this link for a few more ideas Smile

Cooked mashed sweet potato with a tablespoon of peanut butter mixed through. Bacchus gets this every night when he goes to bed. He rushes into his crate to wait when he sees me preparing it, but come downstairs 30 mins. later and he's in " his place " on the sofa. Fly wee devil.Love Struck Love Struck 
A decent sized sweet potato does him 4 or 5 nights.

I give Choc dog two or three kongs when I leave him on work days ... one frozen (raw fish or meat), one with fruit (banana, apple and peanut butter is a fave) and the third with dried treats (tuna or liver usually). I place them in different spots around the yard and he picks which one he likes.

Frozen definately lasts longer, but variety keeps them interesting Smile
