How to Keep Your Dog Mentally Stimulated
Physical exercise is important, but have you ever noticed how mentally tired your dog gets after learning a new trick? Mental stimulation is just as crucial for their well-being. I remember when my Golden Retriever, Max, started getting destructive out of boredom—chewed-up shoes, shredded pillows… you name it. That’s when I discovered the power of mental enrichment.
Here are some easy ways to engage your dog’s mind:
- Puzzle Toys: These keep them busy while rewarding them with treats. Kongs, snuffle mats, and interactive feeders work wonders.
- Training Sessions: Teaching new tricks or practicing old commands keeps their brains sharp.
- Hide and Seek: Hiding treats around the house or playing peek-a-boo adds an element of surprise and fun.
- Socialization: Meeting new dogs and people stimulates their minds by exposing them to new experiences. #LNF
