Activities Your Dog Will Enjoy

By Garrett McMahan


Dogs love to play, and they love attention, so it is always a good idea to offer some fun activities for your pet. Every dog, of course, has a different temperament and different physical strengths and limitations. If you are looking for ways to keep your pet happy and healthy, here are a few suggested activities.

While it might not seem like a truly "fun" activity, dog training actually is a great way to spend time with your dog, especially a puppy or an older dog that is new to your home. There are so many benefits of proper dog training, and you will truly love and enjoy your pet more if he or she behaves properly. In addition, dog training is a great way for you to really learn about your pet's distinctive personality. During dog training you will forge a strong bond with your dog, and your dog will love this training time because they simply love to be with you.

If you don't know how to go about with the training, there is a dog training class or you can decide on having a dog training DVD like "The Dog's Way". This is a dog training DVD that will teach you dog training in 12 easy lessons. You can teach the dog some helpful skills like for him to sit, stay, come when called, walk on a leash, stop excessive barking, or him not to dart out the door. This is also a dog training system that includes a workbook and also reminder cards, so that it will be easy for you to keep on with the training even when you are walking the dog out.

Dogs need exercise, but every dog is unique, so be sure that the level of exercise you choose suits your pet. Some dogs have more stamina than others and can enjoy long walks, runs and hikes, while others need a slower pace. A daily walk or walks is always a good idea for both you and your pet, but just make sure the path you choose suits your dog's age and physical condition.

There are also other tricks and activities they enjoy like playing at home. Your pet dog may like tugging on toys or like chasing balls or run after a stuffed toy you tossed. You need to set a special time every day for him to play. Dogs usually love to play chase or hide and seek, and these are good for both the body and brain. There are also food puzzle toys that are fun activities for dogs, and these are the kinds of toys that you place a treat and your dog will find ways to get this treat. There are also chew toys that are good for dogs but you have to make sure that these toys are safe.

You can also consider agility training or Frisbee play, and this you can do for a healthy dog that is full of energy. There are agility classes, agility clubs, and also Frisbee dog clubs where you can have the fun activities with your dog and also the capability to meet other dog owners, and there are many cities and towns with these clubs and classes. You also need to discuss your dog's health with the vet before starting the heavy dog exercises, and this can be the prerequisite aside from the dog training you do.
