How to Keep Your Dog Active Over the Festive Season
As the festive season takes over, it’s easy to let routines slip. But keeping your dog active is key to their happiness and health! Here are five simple ways to ensure your pup stays engaged, exercised, and entertained this Christmas.
1. Take a Christmas Day Walk
Walking off all that turkey and pudding? Don’t forget your dog! A Christmas Day stroll can become a beautiful tradition for you both.
Choose a scenic route or explore a new local trail.
Bring a thermos of hot chocolate (for you!) and treats for your pup.
Book a private session at The Dog Play Park for an off-lead adventure without the stress of busy public areas.
2. Try Festive Games at Home
Turn Christmas morning into a fun bonding session with interactive games.
Find the Treat: Hide small treats in wrapping paper for your dog to sniff out.
Tug-of-War: Use a festive-themed toy to engage their energy.
Homemade puzzle games: Place treats in cardboard boxes for them to find and retrieve.
3. Create an Indoor Agility Course
When the weather turns cold, bring the fun indoors!
Use chairs, cushions, and blankets to create tunnels and jumps.
Reward your dog with praise and treats for completing obstacles.
It’s a great way to tire them out while staying warm inside.
4. Invest in Interactive Toys
Interactive toys are perfect for mental stimulation, especially on days when you can’t spend as much time outdoors.
Look for puzzle toys where treats can be hidden.
Treat-dispensing balls are great for keeping them busy.
Rotate toys to keep your dog’s interest.
