Some Fun Tricks For Your Dog To 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.

Your dog needs exercise but dogs are different such that you need to know if the level of exercise fits him perfectly. There are dogs with more stamina than others and they enjoy more the long walks and also running, but others need the slower walks. This daily walk is good for you as well as your dog, but you have to sure also that your path fits the physical condition of your dog and also age.

Good playtimes at home are also activities that your dog will enjoy. Tugging on toys and chasing after balls or running after tossing their favorite stuffed toy are tricks and activities your dog will enjoy. A good time for play each day is good to be set aside for them. Playing "hide and seek" which is good for the body and brain can be good for them, and they also love to play chase. Toys in which you place a treat for them to work on retrieving the treat can be good for them, and these are the food puzzle toys that can be a fun activity for them. Other beneficial toys for dogs, although you need to make sure that these are safe, are the chew toys you can give.

For a healthy dog with a great deal of energy, you also could consider agility training or Frisbee play. Many cities and towns have agility clubs, agility classes and Frisbee dog clubs, and this can be a great way to provide fun exercise for your dog as well as getting out and meeting other dog owners. Proper dog training is a good prerequisite for your dog, and it is always wise to discuss your pet's health with a veterinarian before starting a rigorous exercise program.
