So I only have one pet that will ever play with any toys that are required by Major Drills quests. None of the rest ever work. Now this pet wont play with this and neither will the other 9. Is this how its supposed to work if so that makes the quest impossible? Is that right?

if your pet has full happiness points they won't play. If they have a minion or are in the lodge they will have full happiness forever.

So I need miserable pets to complete this task that seems legit lol. Thanks for the help and quick reply :)
