Dogs Decide: Cheap Toy vs Expensive Toy

The experiment included a $10 donut-shaped toy and another over $20, a 99 cents store-brand mini tennis ball and a $2 brand-name mini tennis ball, and two smart toys, one of which was priced at $100. Rocky stated that he hoped the video would be helpful in understanding which toys are worth spending money on and how he could donate toys to shelters and rescue groups.

Rocky first introduced Kobe, his blind dog, to the toys. Although Kobe could not see the toys, he could hear the sound of a crinkled and squeaky toy. After exploring both toys, he chose the cheaper donut-shaped toy. Zoe, the boss of the group, had a strong preference for a brand-name mini tennis ball priced at $2 compared to the cheaper 99 cents store-brand ball. Finally, Rocky presented his dogs with two smart toys that he described as expensive. He did not disclose the price difference between them.
