How To Keep Your Dog Stimulated In Your Apartment In Greenwood

August 11, 2021

When you reside in a Greenwood apartment with a dog or other pet, you need to keep it happy and healthy without the outdoor space that a house and yard can provide. An open apartment floor plan helps, but your pooch needs to be entertained, or he might get curious and destroy things.

A place to exercise outside, the right toys, and canine play dates can help keep your dog stimulated in an apartment in Greenwood, so you both enjoy your renting experience.

Provide Your Dog With Lots Of Outside Exercise

It can be tricky to keep a dog stimulated in your apartment in Greenwood if they don’t have many places to explore. Without opportunities to play, your dog may look for ways to get out their spunkiness and could start tearing up your apartment. To help your dog expend some of that playful energy, exercise them at least twice every day. You can play fetch at the park, go running, explore new trails, or take a stroll around your apartment community. You and your dog will both get the exercise you need!

If your schedule makes it difficult to exercise your dog every day, find somebody else who can. Hire a well-known or friend to walk your dog once a day or invest in a dog walking service or daycare service. Many dogs love hanging out with a human friend or other dogs and the expense will be worth it if the company keeps your four-legged friend from getting bored and chewing everything up.

Buy Interesting Toys To Keep Your Dog Stimulated In Your Apartment In Greenwood

Your pet requires more than just daily exercise. You can help keep your dog stimulated in your apartment in Greenwood with fun and interesting toys too. Provide your dog with a variety of new items that promote curiosity, solving problems, and fun play.

Toys that have hidden treats challenge your dog in a fun way. Purchase a pet camera to watch, interact with, and offer treats to your dog throughout the day! Items that squeak, roll, or bounce keep your dog intrigued. And chew toys will keep them content throughout the day. Or try creating an obstacle course in your space to keep your pup moving throughout the day.

Plan Doggy Playdates

Being social is wonderful for your pet as well. You need to get out with other people, and so does Fido. If your pet is stuck in your apartment every day, they may not learn how to socialize with other people and dogs. Then they become the dog who barks at everything, everyone and bothers your neighbors.

Being around other pooches can put your dog in a good mood. Take them to see friends with dogs or have them play at your apartment community’s dog park. Not only will your dog like be around fellow dogs, but it’s a great way to chat with your neighbors also.
