There's still a bounty on pets.stackexchange.com/questions/36793/…. There has to be more than one answer here. I'd be really happy if someone could come up with another idea.

@Elmy aaaaalright. Posted.

@Stephie That's a nice answer. I'll leave the bounty open until tomorrow, but I already appreciate your effort. Thanks.

@Elmy I was hoping for some more information, but I'll add a third perspective even though the two existing answers are both very good

Done

@AllisonC Thanks so much, your answer is really good, too.

@Elmy Thanks. It took a while to remember all those kinds of toys. :) It's a good question that'll probably be useful for future questions, so I thought it'd be nice to cover as many bases as possible

@AllisonC That's exactly my thought. The question is really good and any answer can be very valuable for a lot of people

Shit. Wrote a long answer to the latest dog asking for attention post and then my phone froze.

it should be saving periodically

… but didn’t, apparently.

bleh

I found a bit again after re-re-loading. Straaaaange. Anyway, posted, done.
