Toys and Treats

Any recommendations on what kind of toys and treats I should get Gizmo and Matti? Before I picked them up I got them a rope toy, a puppy kong, a couple of pigs ears (which I have stopped using since it may be the cause of their loose stool) and some kind of chew rod thing.

But now that I am playing with them individually, I think I should stock up on some more toys so that they have something to do when they are caged up (besides whine for attention). I'm not sure how they'd react to some kind of squeek toy or if I should just get another rope toy. The rope toy seems to be their favorite, but I need to keep that around when I am playing with them so that I have something as a distraction to give them when they start chewing the blankets or something else. I would like to give them some vareity, so when they get bored with one toy they have something else to play with.

The puppy kong was not a huge hit. I put one of the bacon treats that they like inside (which are also not a big hit) but they get bored with it very quickly.

As for treats, are there any kind of treats that people would recommend above others? I got some of the "bacon like" strips but they don't seem wild about them. I want something that they really like so that I can reward them when they go to the bathroom outside, come to me, etc. I already praise and pet them like crazy when they do but I figured some treats would make it even more of a reward.
