⭐️This post is to inform you of the benefits of both physical and mental stimulation for your dog! Both are equally important for the health and wellbeing of all pups. Here at the Pups’ Palace we strive to offer the perfect combination of both!
Physical stimulation promotes good behavior and helps to deter dogs from unwanted behaviors. Regular exercise is also vital to joint health and cardiovascular health. While giving your dog plenty of exercise is important, it’s just as important to not over do it. Too much physical stimulation can lead to over-exertion, and it can even impact brain development. Offering frequent breaks, as we do here during group play, is vital to ensuring your pet stays comfortable.
Mental stimulation also promotes good behavior. A dog needs to exercise their brain just as much as their body, if not more. Mental stimulation can improve brain function and development and wear your pup out quicker than physical exercise! Lick mats and treat puzzles are a great way to give your dog some mental stimulation. We currently offer lick mats with a different flavor each week as a daycare add on, and we have even more enrichment options to announce soon! 😁
