Are you giving your dog enough exercise, or maybe even too much? It’s a question many dog owners ask, and the answer isn’t always as straightforward as it seems. While it’s tempting to think that more physical activity equals a happier dog, the truth is that a balanced routine, including rest and mental enrichment, is key to their well-being.
In the latest episode of Paws and Pawsitivity, I dive into the essentials of creating the perfect balance between exercise, sleep, and mental stimulation. Did you know that dogs need up to 14 hours of sleep a day? And puppies? They need even more! Over-exercising your pup can actually do more harm than good, leading to overstimulation and restlessness instead of relaxation.
We’ll explore how engaging your dog’s brain, through scent work, puzzle toys, and enrichment activities, can often be even more tiring than physical exercise alone. That nose of theirs is a powerful tool, and using it wisely can make a world of difference to their overall happiness.
