Pets become a fertile ground for negative behavior to grow and flourish when they are often bored and subjected to chronic stressors in their immediate environment. Without proper mental and physical stimulation, dogs are unable to vent off pent-up energy thus fueling the growth of undesirable behaviors. 

Here are some ways to improve your pet’s life and help him from getting bored: 

 Home in on your pet’s hunting instincts 
Unleash your pet’s hunting instincts by hiding a tasty nugget or two in a food puzzle or in specific locations around the house. At first, your pet may need some orientation and help, however once he already knows the game, he will surely be looking forward to these play sessions. 

 Bring out “new” toys each week 
Don’t put all your pet’s toys scattered around for him to play with anytime. Sooner or later, he will lose interest playing with the same toys each day. Why not try putting half of the toys away in a place where he can’t have access to them? Each 
week, rotate toys by storing those which were recently played with and bringing out the “new” toys from their hiding place. Your pet will surely be happy and excited to find a familiar toy again. 

Have your pet checked regularly by a vet Willis. Here’s more information on this website.
