Chewing and Boredom, Games for your dog
Chewing is a normal stage of puppy behavior, do not get a puppy, if they lose their best shoes and legs of your furniture is going to bother you. Your teeth and gums pain and also like to experiment with new things. A baby has a pacifier or a teething ring, What does your dog have?
If you have a young dog that is at the stage of chewing (and remember that for some breeds is a long time) do not leave it in a cage nothing to do. A sterile environment will drive your dog crazy and hurt than I could chew the cage. If you use a cage is a good idea to reward the dog always goes with mastic. The cages can be a great way to hold a puppy. Although rare, there are cases of puppies being killed by chemicals chewing cleaning or dangerous electrical wiring. Safety is paramount.
There is no reason to take dozens of toys around the house and wait for your dog to chew when go. If toys are available all the time, then they are not very interesting when you are away. That is when the dog go and find all the different things to chew. It is better to have a variety of toys out and change them every few days by some other and keep doing that. Leave a chew or bone or a Kong filled. You can use a ball of activity or other and fill it with goodies. A few cubes of cheese make it more rewarding for the dog. Can not understand why sometimes a nice piece of cheese out.
If you use a specific treatment, bone or toy to amuse your dog when you leave, you should always do when you return. Your dog will soon realize these special things only exist when you are away. With limited access, tend to appreciate the toy or food more.
One of my favorite tricks is to give the dog a chew bone or a cardboard box sealed with tape. The dog will love chewing the box to get treatment and the whole thing is much more rewarding a chew.
Make sure your dog is busy and tired of preference when you leave. Older dogs may chew out of boredom. A walk before you go to work or even a good play in the garden can be tiring. Some dogs like having a radio or TV left on an old shirt or yours with your smell.
Intelligent work breeds like to learn things. They need to exercise more mental than physical. You can teach most dogs some simple but fun games.
Dogs can learn the names of various toys, some are better at this than others. Take a toy, say a rope and threw him, saying "find the string." Do this many times. Then pick up another type of toy, say a ball and one in each hand. Then let the dog see both, pull the rope and use the command "to find the string." At some point, throw the ball instead and say nothing. If the dog gets, just ignore it, throw the rope and the command again. Then start throwing both toys and make a point of helping him or her to pick up the rope. Once this is reliable, you can start again with a different toy from scratch. Dogs love to work what is the right toy and is more stimulating than just look for the nearest toy. Beforehand, we can hide that intends to apply for it is more difficult.
Lots of dogs are good to sniff things. You can use this normal behavior to make life more interesting of the underground chews and treats around the house. In cushions or rugs, or even spread a newspaper for all over the floor, overlap the pages slightly. Hide treatment below and see the dog waste paper to get it and have great fun.
Another version of this is to get several plastic pots of the plant. Just take one to start and let your dog see you put under treatment. Encourage the dog to turn on the pot to get treatment. Some dogs pick this up immediately, some use of brute force and push the boat around before realizing they have to turn it. Once the dog gets the idea to introduce more pots and let the dog one actually has the food. If the dog is too good, buy more heavy pots! You can also extend this for dogs that need more work. Place the pots in different places around the garden instead of all together in the yard. Initially go around with the dog, pointing to the pots as you find them. If you made the original game properly the dog will realize that the pot means of verification for a treat. Finally, you should be able to send the dog off the garden to find the pots and calculate where the treatment is. , Should take the pot and put them away later. The dog loses interest if he continues the search for empty pots when they are playing.
You can play a sort of looking for human play as well. This is also very useful if you are incredibly lazy! Have your partner stand outside Room and tell the dog, "go find X". The idea is that "X" call the dog and praise it. You can teach your dog to bark or play the person with one leg. Once the dog gets the idea, get the person to hide in a place a little more difficult and not call the dog and so on. Only when the dog is well situated in search of the person you can change people and names. The dog sniffed around and enjoy listening to the tracks.
I am sure that if you use your imagination you can think of a lot of variations on this theme. The exercise, entertainment and attention that a happy dog.
