We all know that look, a wagging tail, a ball in the mouth, playful eyes, our dogs need to play.
But what about work and cleaning, we all want to play with our dogs but we have so much stuff to do, here are several ideas to get you out with your dog!!
Daily Playing
Playing with your dog everyday is incredibly important, and should be a priority. Many of your dogs bad behaviors, including chewing up your home, excessive barking, etc. can be prevented by play time. Since it stimulates your dog, they feel less of a need to do these things.
If possible, wake up early and throw the ball for ten to fifteen minutes. When you get home, go to the dog park, or an open area near your house and play with your dog.
Weekends
On the weekends you can go hiking with your dog, bike rides, go to a lake or the beach, get creative with the things you can do with your dog! Some dogs even go surfing, skydiving, or skateboarding! Our dogs love hiking and swimming.
Other Ideas
You can organize playdates with your friends pups, or even a puppy party. Your dog will love meeting other dogs and will probably nap for the entire car ride home.
You can teach your dog lots of cool tricks, shake, play dead. Our dogs even learned how to recognize words like "sit" and "shake"
