First, what a cutie. I hope he never grows into those ears. They’re huge and adorable.
So.. You have so many options. Everything from simple toys (like the wobble kong or the tricky treat ball) to more complex puzzles (like the mad scientist or the mini mover). If your pup is pretty smart, & the fact he’s border collie/gsd suggests he probably is, he might really enjoy the mental work out the more challenging puzzles present.
If eating too quick is your main worry and you don’t always have time for feeding toys you can also get bowls specifically designed to slow dogs down. Just search “dog slow feeder bowls” on google/amazon. (The outward hound bowls are great.)
It may just be a matter of finding toys that can keep him engaged. There are toys that are like catnip kickers or static little stuffies, but then there are also some that are battery-operated or plug in (lasers, concealed motion toys, magnetic toys).
My personal preference, especially if I'm not home to supervise are toys that can be active with just the cat's actions alone. This woven straw is one of my cat's favourites because it catches in her claws as she swats it, so as she moves, it follows her motion until it uncatches and flings off, so she'll go chase it.
I've got this cheap little wand that I use to play with her that moves fairly unpredictably and actually got my cat panting because she was so into it.
Another thing I do everyday is spend 15-20 minutes making her chase her meal. I feed wet food during the day and offer a limited amount of kibble at night, so what I do with the kibble is toss it up the stairs or around the house within her sight so she chases each piece to get fed. I do this until she gets so tired that she has to lie down 3 or 4 separate times, and then I let her rest.
After that, I fill some foraging toys with some more kibble so she has something to work for. If your cat is food motivated, this could work well for you too because it keeps them mentally and physically busy. I have a treat ball and a Wobbert (a little more challenging than a regular treat ball) but I find they're quick to solve and not very engaging. Most of the ones I get are dog toys:
Also, I hide kibble pieces all over her furniture and any cat-friendly furniture. In toys, in any nooks and crannies, in places I want her to explode. It's a good reason to get her feeling like she has a bit of a mission and poking around.
Have you tried dog activity boards? They're great because they work well with food-motivated buns. Here's the one I have and my girl absolutely loves it. She starts doing circles every time I pull it out. I'll admit, she tries to lift it up and flip it over (unsuccessfully) but she'll easily spend a half-hour working at it, even sometimes after she's gotten all the treats. I make sure to take it away once she's had her fill of playing with it. So far, it's been 7 months and it hasn't lost its appeal. There's lots of other versions and great ways to switch things up so it's always a new game.
I put her meal-time pellets in the treat holes. She spends quite a bit of energy working at it so I can usually expect a full, exhausted flop afterwards. You can find more brands and styles through this link.. I think that website even has videos of their bun enjoying them!
Tips: If your girl is 13 lbs, you might want to glue/tape some weights to the bottom so she doesn't just flip it upside down.
