Mental stimulation is an important aspect to keeping your dog happy and
healthy. It's just as important as physical exercise and can help alleviate
boredom or behavioral problems. Brain games are a great way to tap into your
dog's natural hunting and foraging skills. The key is to mix it up! You can
easily add enrichment into your dog's daily routine using items you may
already have in your home.
