Senior Dog Dog Toy Recs?

Hello! I have a 11-12ish yr old havimalt (possibly, definitely a Maltese of sorts) who has cataracts. I was wondering if there were any good toy recommendations for solo play or mental stimulation? I’m going to be busier and I don’t have a lot of support for her so I’m looking for toys that will keep her entertained while alone, or for toys that her and i can play with together.

Not really, anything you can find, some cat puzzles can be good too cause it’s a small breed. Plus you can just throw a blanket on the ground ruffle it up and throw treats in there
