Physical exercise is good and all, but it’s not the be-all and end-all of your furparenting.
If you want to have a happy and healthy dog, it’s important to keep them mentally stimulated, too.
Here’s one easy mental exercise that you can do – even at home!
Magic Cup Mental Exercise
What you need:
- A bored pupper
- 3 opaque cups
- A bag of treats
Instructions:
- Get three cups and put them upside down in front of your dog.
- Take a small treat and place it inside one of the cups.
- Shift the places of the three cups and have your dog select which cup has the treat.
- They’ll automatically use their sense of smell to find the treat.
- Once they start sniffing the right cup, turn the cup over and let them have the treat.
- Rinse and repeat!
