5 WAYS TO KEEP YOUR PET HAPPY AND ACTIVE

(Article by Kristen Collins, CPDT, ASPCA Animal Trainer)

“With nothing to do, dogs and cats are forced to find ways to entertain themselves,” explains Collins.“Their activities of choice often include behaviors we fine problematic, like excessive barking or

meowing, gnawing on shoes, raiding the garbage, eating houseplants, and scratching the furniture.”

To prevent behavior and health problems, the following five physical and mental workouts for your petare recommended:

• Move it! Health adult dogs need at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise twice a day. Jogging, swimming and playing at the dog park are all great ways to burn excess energy.

• Engage in structured games, like fetch and tug-of-war. They’re not only great exercise butalso teach your pet impulse control and strengthen the bond between you.

• Keep your dog occupied when he is home alone by giving him a food-stuffed puzzle toy orsome tasty chew toys.

• Like their canine counterparts, cats also need plenty of aerobic exercise. Get kitty fit withrousing play sessions, such as chase and fetch with furry toys, small balls or toy mice.

• Teach your cat new tricks! Felines are quick studies and can learn practical skills likecoming when called, sitting up, rolling over and even using the toilet.

Collins adds: “The bottom line is that you are responsible for enriching your pet’s life. Providingopportunities to exercise your cat or dog’s mind and body will keep them healthy and happy.”

For more info about enriching your pet’s life, please read expert advice at www.aspcabehavior.org.
