Do Your Doggies Have The Winter Blues?


If your dogs are anything like my dogs, they have the blues right now - the winter blues. Although they love the snow, they aren't able to play outside as much as they do in the summer months. And lets be honest the walks around the block are much less and the visits to the park are nonexistent.


So how do I keep their spirits up when it is snowing and they can't go and play outside? Well I do several things:

  • I give them toys! We like to give them toys we can play tug-o-war with.
  • Treats. They love raw hides, so I make sure to keep plenty in the house.
  • Games. No matter what size your apartment or home is, there is always a room that you can play fetch in. Try it, your dog will love it.
  • Attention. Most importantly, your dog won't mind being stuck inside if you are giving them lots of attention. Try it, a little attention goes a long way.

What are some of the things you like to do to keep your dog entertained during the Winter months?
