Sadly; we have a few toy's that have bells in them and a ball when it rolls, it squeaks but she's not interested in them at all! I bought her a hard rubber bone like toy at Christmas that dispensed treats but she got totally fixated with getting the treats out that she chewed the ends of the toy and I had to throw it out! This sensory ball is a hard plastic like melamine ball that she can't chew so we'll give that a go.
Her hearing seems to be fine. She listens and re-acts to our foot tapping and I also carry a thread of jingle bells in my coat pocket when we're outside. If she wanders too far or wanting to call her in, I'll jingle the thread of bells and she'll follow the sound and come.
