Create a "Busy Box" for Your Miniature Schnauzer Using a Cardboard Box Filled with Crumpled Paper and Hidden Treats.

Creating a "Busy Box" for your Miniature Schnauzer is an excellent way to provide mental stimulation and entertainment.

  • Start with a medium-sized cardboard box, ensuring it's sturdy enough for your dog's exploration.

  • Fill the box with crumpled paper, creating layers and hiding spots.

  • Scatter small, dog-safe treats throughout the box, burying them within the paper.

This encourages your Schnauzer to use their keen sense of smell and natural foraging instincts. Introduce the box to your dog, allowing them to investigate and discover the hidden treasures.

This simple yet engaging activity taps into your Miniature Schnauzer's intelligence and curiosity, providing a fun and rewarding experience that can keep them occupied for extended periods. Remember to supervise playtime and replace the box when it becomes worn.
