Keeping Pets Mentally Stimulated During Summer

Hot weather often means shorter walks — but mental exercise is just as important as physical activity.

Signs of Understimulation

• Excessive barking or meowing

• Destructive behavior

• Restlessness

Indoor Enrichment Ideas

• Puzzle feeders

• Training refreshers

• New textures and chew styles

• Frozen enrichment treats

Mental stimulation helps burn energy without overheating.
