Did you know that an estimated 59% of dogs in the U.S. are overweight?
From scent work to adventure walks, here are creative ways to enrich your dog’s life beyond treats. 🍖❌
🐽 Sniffing: Dogs love to explore their world through their amazing sense of smell! It not only helps them take in their surroundings but also promotes relaxation and lowers their blood pressure.
🌿 Digging: Digging is a common behavior for dogs, rooted in their natural instincts as scavengers. While it can be annoying for your garden, it’s just part of their playful nature!
🐕 Running: Many dog breeds are built for running, thanks to their ancestors who could cover long distances. It’s no wonder our furry friends enjoy sprinting and romping around!
🐾 Playing: One of the wonderful things about dogs is that they keep their playful spirit into adulthood! They love to wrestle, tug, and chase, just like they did as puppies.
🧩 Overcoming challenges: Dogs may not have the same abstract thinking as us, but they love tackling challenges! Activities like obstacle courses, trick training, and puzzle games give them a great sense of accomplishment.
👭🏽 Social time. Simply hanging around their favorite person isn’t enough to completely fulfill a dog
(they need other activities, too!)
