The Ultra-Critical Thing All Dog Parents Should Do With Their Pup’s Toys

Pup parents know that mental stimulation is crucial for their dog’s overall health and well-being, as is being physically active.

Luckily, there’s an easy solution for both these things: playing with toys!

 

Most dogs love toys, and some may even have a favorite. But after awhile, you may notice that your pup gets a little bored of the same pile of playthings. And as many pup parents know, boredom can lead to destruction, depression, and even weight problems in dogs.

In order to keep your canine happily entertained, it’s important to rotate their toys. You can hide most of their toy stash except for a few, then after a week, put those away and pull out some others – your dog will play as if they’re brand new!

This simple trick will help keep your dog busier, happier, and ultimately, happier.

 

Of course, you should get Fido a new toy or two every so often. Discovering new items is exciting, and they always appreciate the gifts you give them. Plus, old toys should be tossed if they start to break or fray, for safety and hygienic reasons.
