Sometimes it’s not possible for your dog to go outside to release extra energy by running around, digging in the yard, playing ball, etc. For instance, if it’s too hot or too cold then you should avoid having your dog outdoors for more than five to ten minutes. At times like these you still need ways for your dog to release energy. Some inside activities may include having your dog walk on a treadmill. This should be done only under a vet’s supervision and all directions must be followed. Remember to start the machine out slow and never leave your dog unattended. Playing fetch indoors with a small, soft toy is another way to help your dog stay active. In addition, you can play chase in an open area. If your dog needs attention and not exercise then cuddle with him on the sofa. Click to learn more or call your veterinary clinic Cameron Park, CA.
