So are mine, poor bruce hasn't been out since Sunday (stitches in leg)....luckily he's that relaxed today I think he's dead.

Wait till this afternoon....he can go off lead and have a run (vet says so)....that will wake him up I bet

Don't feed him.....





...... from a bowl.

Frozen kongs (as already suggested) and treat balls are a great way to keep them busy and working for their food. Bones to chew on are also good.

Teaching new commands/tricks will use up more brain power than repeating ones already learnt.

Hide and seek is good. Put your dog outside (the sitting room, for example) door and ask for a sit/down and wait. Then close the door and hide the toy. Then open the door and give a suitable command to find the toy. Willow loves this game. Only thing is that it will envolve some moving about for you.

Hope your foot feels better soon.

T Touch body work is brilliant to help you & your dog bond & also to relax your dog. It's very simple to learn & it does work

Wow, some great ideas on here.

I'm going to spend today trying them all out!!

Thanks everyone ;o)

I love the idea of TTouch Jodee, when I get some spare wonga (this dog's cost me £200 this past month in vet bills!!) I'll be looking into it for sure, it's a very ''me'' thing that. ;o)
