One toy, as many games as you can tie. The Holiday NOU® brings festive colours to Lambwolf's signature knot toy — one long, soft, flexible plush that you tie into whatever today's game calls for: a pretzel, a boating knot, a tossing ball, or a tug rope. Untie it, re-knot it, and it's a new toy all over again.
Tuck treats into the knots and it becomes a nosework puzzle too — your dog sniffs, paws, and works the knots loose to reach the reward. And because the difficulty lives in how you tie it, the NOU® grows with your dog: start with a loose pretzel, work up to tighter knots, or combine two or three NOU®s for the hardest puzzles.
How to play
- Tug & fetch — knot it into a rope for tug, or a ball for toss and chase
- Nosework, beginner — tie a loose pretzel with treats visible in the folds, and let your dog work them free
- Nosework, advanced — a tighter boating knot with treats fully hidden makes a longer, tougher challenge
- Level up — combine two or three NOU®s knotted together for the hardest puzzles
- Best treats — air-dried or freeze-dried treats hold their shape in the knots; avoid wet food or sticky items

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it squeak?
Yes — the Holiday NOU® has 4 squeakers built in along its length, so every bite and tug comes with a payoff, on top of all the knotting, nosework and fetch fun.
How do I set up a nosework session?
Tie treats into the knots. For beginners, a loose pretzel with treats visible; for a longer challenge, a tighter boating knot with treats hidden inside. Small air-dried treats work best.
Is it suitable for rough chewers?
The fabric is gentle and every seam is reinforced, but no plush toy is indestructible — supervise play, and put the NOU® away if your dog settles in to chew rather than play.
How is this different from the regular NOU®?
Same beloved knot toy, dressed for the holidays — the Holiday NOU® wears festive colours while playing exactly the same way.
How do I wash it?
Unknot it first, then machine wash on gentle with a mild pet-safe detergent and air dry fully. No tumble drying.
