Description

Is your furry friend bored? Keep them busy with 10 fun and effective brain games aimed at mental stimulation! These games will help to prevent your pet from boredom and therefore, from destructive behaviors.

According to Dr. Ian Dunbar (a world-renowned dog trainer), “Mental exercise tires a dog physically more than physical exercise does.”

Enroll in this course if you want to:

  • Create a stronger bond with your dog

  • Prevent your pet from boredom

  • Provide your pet with sufficient mental & physical stimulation

  • Have fun and spend quality time with your pooch

  • Boost your mood when teaching new things to your dog

To play these games, you will only need a bag of treats and a few DIY toys that are extremely easy to make.

The items you will need:

  • A towel

  • Old jeans

  • Toilet paper tubes

  • Scissors

  • A box

  • A cloth

  • An empty plastic bottle

These brain games will perfectly fit your busy schedule as you'll need about 10 minutes of playtime a day to keep your pet busy and entertained.

With our workload, we can’t always provide our dogs with the opportunity to get enough mental stimulation through walking. The good news is that there are many ways to entertain your dog, even indoors.
