Fun Things To Do With Your Dog At Home

With everything going on, you may be spending a lot more time with your dog at home. We came up with a few fun ideas of things you and your pup can do to keep busy!

Teach Your Dog a New Trick

Now is a great time to teach your dog a new trick or two. Some to add to your list are rollover, shake, spin, and speak! A few training tips are to keep your sessions under 10 minutes, practice once or twice a day, and use small treats as a reward for good behavior. Who says you can't teach an old (or young) dog new tricks?

Go For a Walk

It's important during this time to get outside and get fresh air. Taking your dog to a local park or on a walk or hike are great ways to get moving. Bring along a ball or frisbee for some extra fun!

Doggie Spa Day

Instead of going to the groomers, pamper your pup with an at-home spa day! Give your dog a bath at home so he or she is fresh and clean! You can also brush out their coat or even add a bandana!
