After a crazy day at work it always tops it off to come home and find your Fido friend in his newly dug trench. Little do most pet owners realise is that whilst you have been out all day, he has been at home BORED and craving something to do. Most of the time dogs dig to satisfy boredom ( or find that treat they buried 8 months before hand).
There are a few things that we can do to help your pet stay mentally stimulated whilst we are away. Toys are vital!! Try changing your dogs existing toys by filling them with different flavoured treats, pop them in the freezer and rotate between a selection of toys each day so he isn’t seeing the same ones day in and out. Kongs, Busy Buddy, squeaky toys, balls and even his very own play sand pit are all wonderful tools that can be used to keep your dogs mind busy.
Repellent sprays and granules are available to help keep pooch out areas and pot plants.
If pooch is being a real problem then there are devices that, with training, assist in saving your beloved garden beds. Feel more than welcome to come in and have a chat with our team about different ways of helping your dog get through each day whilst your away!
