Weekly Wednesday #2 Energy Outlet

Greetings fellow Animal lovers!!! Monday night I was inspired by a twit pic from @SawyerTheLab and @PetPros_Matrix1...a dog maze food bowl. This is an item I have personally suggested to clients when given a behavior issue that merely sounds as if the root cause is MOMMY, I NEED TO PLAY!! Simply put, our dogs need a small triathlon daily. (Varies for breed, size, and age) . How can this food maze bowl help? The maze bowl increases mental stimulation ... mental exercise, if you will. Why is mental exercise important? Think about it; originally, canines were depended on for a specific tasks. Pulling sleds, hunting, herding and protecting. Today the main job of our canine is to keep us company and for some other groups, they are mere accessories. Domesticated canines today rarely use their hunting skills, food is placed in one lump portion, no work needed. Providing an outlet for natural behaviors can reduce what some may see as behavior issues. The food maze bowls are also great for canines with limited physical activity due to surgery or aging. Owner's with pups who tend to eat too fast should consider the food maze bowl. #arkansas #petchat #rescue #adopt #getactive #foster
