Play & Care
Introduce the house on a clean floor and allow your dog to investigate. Keep the first searches simple, then tuck the characters further inside as your dog gains confidence. If using treats, choose suitable small pieces and include them within the daily food allowance. Remove leftover food after each session. Inspect the house, seams and all three characters before and after use, follow the product label for cleaning instructions and put away between sessions.
Safety & Suitability
No dog toy is indestructible. Supervise all play and treat searches, keeping track of every removable piece. Remove immediately if torn, damaged or if stuffing or a squeaker becomes accessible. Prevent swallowing of fabric, filling, squeakers and loose parts. This is a soft interactive toy, not an unattended chew, and is unsuitable for dogs who quickly dismantle plush toys or could swallow the characters. Seek veterinary advice promptly if you suspect any component has been swallowed.
