The Boredom Breaker is designed to be hung in the stable well away from any walls and as the horse licks the Boredom Breaker will swing and spin making them work hard for their reward.
Top Tip
Try using a Salt Likit on the top section and flavoured Little Likits in the ball for the ultimate challenge.
Some Boredom Breaker Reviews
I have the Boredom Breaker for my pony and he absolutely loves all the flavours! Great product if you want something too last ages and take the boredom away. I have recently bought the Likit Snaks and they are also great.

My boy is so happy when he receives a Likit he dances! I love likit as boredom breaker and a training tool it has helped my rescue new forest overcome many scary and new things and now he is a very confident gelding! Thanks to the help of a Likit reward.

Stroller absolutely loves his Likits! There’s a snack for every occasion – I use the Likit Snaks when I’m trick training or need encouragement stretching, a bit of a Likit Treat Bar after he’s been ridden as a treat and then he always has his Likit Boredom Breaker in his stable full of goodies to keep him occupied, entertained and with a happy tummy! He’s sooo licky after a Likit which for me is a sure sign of an ace goodie! (P.s secretly I love them too!)
Our entry level product, the Likit Holder has a low level of challenge so is ideal for horses that have never used Likits before as it gives them a gentle introduction to the product range, which is important particularly for horses that are not normally food motivated – Sometimes they can be put off if the challenge is too great initially.
Medium
The Medium Challenge Level features the Snak-a-Ball and the Tongue Twister. Firstly the Snak-a-Ball, this is suitable for all horses and ponies and can be used indoors or out. The challenge for this product increases as the horse uses the product. Simply fill with any dry feed, ideally pelleted, or our new Likit Snaks. As the horse nudges the ball it will roll and the feed will trickle out. The less feed left in the ball, the higher the level of challenge for the horse.
Red TT 2Secondly, the Tongue Twister, this product is designed to be fixed to a wall at wither height and is ideal for horses in smaller stables or for those that tend to ‘spook’ easily. Simply insert one or two Little Likits and as the horse uses the toy, the ball will spin making it harder for them to reach their reward. To increase the challenge insert just one Little Likit, gravity will pull the treat down. Studies have shown that environmental enrichment works best when animals are challenged with changes in their environment. Try regularly changing the flavour of the Little Likits and even more the location of the toy from time to time.
Difficult
The Boredom Breaker is one of our more challenging toys and is ideal for experienced Likit users or horses that are particularly motivated by food. Ensure the ball is hung at wither height, well away from any walls to encourage the horse to lick rather than bite. We would recommend using one of our salt based Likits on the top Likit Holder and using either 1 or 2 Little Likits in the ball. As with the Tongue Twister we would recommend alternating both the flavours and the location of the ball regularly to keep the horse’s interest.
