5 Fun and Creative Indoor Activities To Do With Your Energetic Dog
Cooler weather is here and your high energy doggo needs to be on it’s toes even when indoors. Here are five fun and creative indoor activities to help your energetic dog burn off some steam:
- Hide and Seek: Hide treats or toys around your home and encourage your dog to find them. This engages their sense of smell and provides mental stimulation.
- Indoor Agility Course: Set up a mini obstacle course using household items like chairs, broomsticks, and cardboard boxes. Guide your dog through the course, teaching them new tricks and commands.
- Tug of War: A game of tug can be a great way to release energy and strengthen the bond with your dog. Just make sure to use a sturdy toy designed for this purpose.
- Interactive Toys and Puzzles: Invest in interactive toys or puzzle feeders that dispense treats as your dog plays with them. This keeps them mentally engaged and entertained.
- DIY Doggie Playdate: Arrange playdates with other dog-owning friends. Dogs can burn a lot of energy by playing with each other, and it’s a great way for them to socialize.
Remember to adapt these activities to your dog’s size, age, and physical abilities to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
