This article from Real Simple discusses five important but often overlooked needs that dogs have. The first is mental stimulation, which can be achieved through teaching them new tricks or giving them puzzle toys. The second is allowing dogs time to sniff during walks, as this engages their natural instincts and reduces stress. Dogs are also highly social creatures and need at least two hours of social interaction each day, whether with humans or other dogs. Providing dogs with their own space, such as multiple beds in different locations, is also important. Lastly, dogs thrive on routine and consistency, so having a regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, and walks is beneficial for their well-being. [Extracted from the article] |
