Looking for ideas for mental stimulation for our rescue girl. The vet thinks she is between 6 and 8 years old. She has dwarfism and her back legs are slightly weak, but much better than they were when we brought her home. She has all the usual licky mats, kongs, tug of war, walks in nature for plenty of sniffing, she enjoys swimming, and she goes to Doggy Day Care once a week for 7 hours to play with other dogs.
My problem is the cold weather. She will not go out in the rain or snow, I can’t even get her down the street. She stops in her tracks and digs her feet in, until we go back home. If we take her somewhere in the car, she won’t get out of the car or cries until she can get back in. She spent her life chained up in a tiny yard, so she doesn’t walk far, she gets tired after around 35-45 minutes. So I’m looking for new toys, games, or any ideas for mental stimulation inside the house.
My last staffy lived to 17 and would run for hours no matter the weather, so this is all new to me. Thanks in advance! 😊
