Mind games?

Does anyone know of any good mental games to play with their dogs?

Her behaviourist has said to keep playing games that stimulate her mentally and we only really have two games.

we play 'plant pot's' (i'm not very good at naming games lol) in the garden where i line up about 10 little plastic plant pots (upside down) and put a some little treats under some of them then we walk along and she sniffs all of them but has to lift the one with the treats under it so she can get the treat.

We also play find blue ball/kong/rope (i know she cant see colour but we have named her toys so she knows which one i mean) i put a few balls in the garden when she is in the kitchen and she has to go find blue ball and bring me back then she gets to play with her favourite ball on a rope toy.

She really loves these games and i was wondering if anyone has any more that we can play?

Beki will become famous soon enough
any of these are good, i got a spinny, tornado and a pyramid and ellie goes mad for all of them, i know some people put their dogs dinner in them so they have to work for it rather than just eating it out a bowl
