As temperatures begin to drop, your dog will spend more of his time inside the house. Activity will be less and then there are some dogs that may develop cabin fever. However, colder temperatures must not be used as an excuse to be less active during wintertime. Here are ways for keeping your pet dog happy and healthy even if you both stay indoors:
●Accumulate toys
○Your pet can have a lot of mental and physical stimulation using varying toys. Rotating your dog’s toys will keep him interested and preserves their novelty.
●Training
○Refreshing your dog’s training routines will keep him active mentally and physically. Look for dog training programs, for example, “nose work”. Try also teaching your pet new tricks.
●Playing indoors
○Be on the lookout in your area for indoor services such as indoor dog parks and/or doggie daycare centers. Choose ones that allow only dogs that have been personality-tested, and playtime that is climate-controlled. It is also a good idea to check with your vet clinic Portland OR regarding your dog’s preventatives and vaccinations and get them updated because facilities like these normally require pet medical records.
