Episode What to Do When Your Dog Is Bouncing Off the Walls | Dog Enrichment
Is your dog bouncing off the walls now that it’s dark by dinnertime?
Shorter days and colder weather can leave a high energy dog with nowhere to put it all, and more fetch or longer walks often wind them up instead of settling them down. This episode walks through seven indoor enrichment games that work your dog’s nose and brain, use things you probably already have at home, and help them actually rest afterward.
You’ll hear:
• A scent trail game using a single sock that turns your whole house into a search • How to turn empty toilet paper tubes and a cardboard box into a shredding treasure hunt • Why a lick mat before the chaos starts can help your dog stay calmer through it • A simple play, puzzle, and chew routine that moves your dog from excited to settled
Press play if you’re stuck inside with a dog who has way more energy than your living room can handle.
