What are the benefits of play for dogs?
As mentioned by Pedigree, “playing and having fun helps eliminate stress from your dog’s life.” It keeps them physically and mentally healthy, develops their social skills, gives you time to bond with your fur baby, and at the same time, it helps improve your own health, too!
Play serves as your dog’s exercise
Like humans, dogs need exercise so they can maintain a healthy weight and body. It strengthens their muscles, and improves their cardiovascular health.
Play keeps your dog mentally stimulated
With play, your dog is active and happy. This means that he’s not bored, barking, or chewing your pillows.
Play helps your dog to socialise with other dogs
Play can also be an excellent way for dogs to socialise with other dogs and humans. This can help them develop social skills, reduce fear and anxiety, and prevent behavioural problems.
Play can be used to train your dogs
Incorporating training into playtime can help dogs learn faster and retain what they have learnt for longer.
