Looking for a way to play ball with your dog that is easier on the joints? 🥎🦴
Playing ‘Find it’ with a ball, involves asking for your dog to sit and wait while you either throw or hide the ball. Next, you use a release cue for them to go find and retrieve the ball. You can also do these with any items your dog finds valuable; treats or toys etc! 🧸
Playing ‘Find it’ with the ball allows your dog to use their nose and taps into their in**ed need to search, hunt and retrieve. It can also be very useful for those senior doggies that need to take it easy but still want to have fun playing with a ball! It also strengthens your pooches impulse control and helps you practice your wait command! ✋
Incorporating ‘Find it’ into play time with your dog, prevents them from repetitively running at full speed, stopping, jumping and twisting - which could lead to negative effects on their joints down the line. 🐕
And is guaranteed to help leave your dog feeling mentally tired and happy 🥳
