PET TOY DEVICE AND METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

A pet toy device and method therefore to mentally and physically exercise and entertain pets that live indoors that may include a fabric material with at least one pocket, at least one non-pocketed area and a tether with an attaching mechanism or member that temporarily attaches to a pet's favorite object. The method of using the device includes attaching a pet's favorite object to the tether using the toy holding mechanism such as a double sided single hook and loop or Velcro strap, then hiding the tethered pet object in at least one of the pockets. Once provided to the pet, the pet digs through the device to uncover the pet's favorite object. Moreover, the design provides for a pet's physical exercise, mental stimulation and entertainment while not allowing the attached favorite object to be lost under furniture or to be thrown across the room by the pet.
