What about testing their sense of smell through a maze? Maybe if you were to tempt them through the maze with a treat it may eventually become a learned behaviour.

Have a look at Skinner's Behaviourist Theory. He did experiments on rats to see the effects of positive reinforcement. We studied him at college. Very interesting :-)
