As winter approaches, many of us love to be bundled up indoors. However, that doesn’t mean our dogs feel the same! It’s crucial to ensure your dog still gets out to exercise, play, and release their energy. Below are some tips to keep your pup happy and healthy during the colder months!
Protect Those Paws
When going for walks outside, snow, ice, and salt can be harsh on your dog’s paws. To help protect their delicate feet, consider investing in a pair of dog booties or applying paw salve.
Tip:*Some paw salves are also effective on noses, which can become dry and cracked during the cold season!
Enrichment Activities
Providing mental stimulation is essential for your dog. There are many ways to enrich your pup’s life, from engaging games to interactive feeding toys! Just like humans, dogs need mental stimulation to prevent boredom and anxiety. Incorporating daily enrichment activities can help your dog exercise their brain and release pent-up energy.
Consider Doggie Daycare
Doggie daycare is an excellent option for any season, especially during winter when it is more difficult to keep your dog entertained. Even if it’s just a few days a week while you work, your pup will appreciate the socialization and exercise! The benefits of doggie daycare are amplified in the colder months when outdoor playtime may be limited. Your dog will enjoy a fun, safe environment while you’re away.
