We all know that unstimulated (aka bored) dogs can lead to undesirable behaviour such at digging and chewing. Below are some tips to keep your dog entertained while home alone: Frozen ice blocks: Summer is a great time to leave your dog with a giant ice block. Use chicken or beef stock and freeze it in an ice cream container - your dog will have a long lasting lick block. Kongs: these are great time consuming treats. Fill a Kong with beef stock or peanut butter and freeze it overnight - for more great ideas visit Kong Company’s awesome website. Treasure hunt: scatter liver treats or your dog’s kibble around the garden creating a treasure hunt. They will pick up the trail and spend time searching for them. Background noise: leave the radio on so your dog has some background noise to help pass the time. Talk back radio or classical music is perfect for soothing canine nerves.
