How to use

With roomy treat pockets running the full length of the plait, simply hide dry food or treats inside each opening - you can also tuck them between the folds for additional extraction.

This turns mealtime or snack time into a fun, scent-driven puzzle, keeping your dog calm, focused and mentally stimulated as they sniff out the hidden goodies.

Getting started: Begin with longer treats (like sprats or veggie sticks) and leave part of them sticking out to make it easy for your dog to succeed. As they get the hang of it, you can switch to smaller treats for more of a challenge.

Care

Gentle (non-spin) machine wash at 30 degrees using dog-safe detergent. Air dry.

Safety

Always supervise your dog during play. This toy is designed for sniffing and treat extraction - not for chewing.

Regularly check for signs of wear and tear. If the fabric becomes damaged, remove the toy immediately, as loose threads or pieces could pose a choking risk.

  • Mental Stimulation (Sustained Sniffing)

    A dog’s world is guided by their nose and sniffing is one of the most powerful ways to provide daily mental enrichment.

    Snuffle toys offer an opportunity for calm sniffing, encouraging focused sniffing and problem-solving right at home.

    Vary the treats you hide (dry food, fish skins, cheese pieces, etc.) to introduce new smells, tastes and textures - keeping your dog curious, engaged, and fulfilled.

  • Instinctual Play (Predatory Behaviours)

    The Forager’s Plait taps into your dog’s natural predatory play instincts.

    They can pounce, tug, shake, drag and dissect the toy - safely mimicking hunting behaviours in a way that feels deeply satisfying.

    Perfect for dogs who love pulling stuffing out of toys or need an independent play outlet.

  • Enriched Slow Feeding

    Most slow-feeding bowls reduce gulping but lack true mental stimulation.

    The Forager’s Plait does both - slowing meals and offering an engaging puzzle that involves choice, problem-solving and natural behaviours.

    It’s enrichment with purpose - turning mealtime into a mentally nourishing experience.

I ordered 2 of the rope plaits so my dogs would have one each (to avoid jealousy). The work really well to hide the treats in and seem hard wearing enough to keep them occupied for ages to come.

Thank you Chloe!

My dog loves this. He is on recovery from a cruciate ligament injury so enrichment toys are great. Very well made.
