He loves games where he has to rely on old, long-dead instincts. Many of our dogs live lives almost stripped of their true canine ways & seem to have a lot of behavioral problems maybe because of it. The more we can let our dogs be dogs part of each day the happier they are.
I played this game with bits of sausage . I would call “want to play hid the sausage“ my daughter would crack up before telling me hid the sausage is another completely diffrent game lol
