Full Question:
Hello Cindy,

I will be bringing my working puppy home next weekend. I know you should not leave toys with a working dog according to the "Raising a Working Puppy" video. Can you tell me a few items that I can leave with the puppy while he is in his crate or kennel for a few hours at a time? I believe Ed mentioned giving a Knuckle Bone. Thanks.

Cindy Cindy's Answer:
A knuckle bone is good, and is typically yummy enough that it keeps a pup’s attention.

These toys are also good “puppy pacifiers”.

Everlasting Fire Plug
Everlasting Beanie Ball
Everlasting Treat Ball
Jolly Critters you can stuff treats or peanut butter, cream cheese, yogurt in here. I put it in the freezer and then give it to the dog, so it takes a long time to get the filling out.
