Here are 6 signs that your dog needs stimulation

Are you ever mad at your dog, just because they still act like little puppies? They still destroy your house, eat your shoes, or do not behave like you have trained them to! If you see your dog different, or too unsettled then maybe your baby needs some mental stimulation. You should take them outside more often, you should play with them everyday, and show them love! Below are listed 6 signs that your dog needs stimulation, mental and physical stimulation! If your dog acts like this then you better pay some more attention to your loyal life companion!

1- Can’t settle down!

Does your dog moves from its position every 5-10 minutes? If he paces, whines, and cant settle down, then he needs some serious care. Probably something is bothering him, or his muscles need some stretching!

2- Destroys things

If you still see your dog eating your shoes, or your furniture then you need to take care of it. Once dogs learn that destroying things is not right they stop doing it, unless they do not feel alright!

3- Tail chasing

From experience I can say that dogs love tail chasing. They do it every now and then. If you see your dog tail chasing very often then you need to give your dog some physical stimulation. They need to play, and free their energy!


4- Barks at everything

When you see that your dog basically barks at everything, you should know better that his brain is a little too tired. They probably need mental stimulation, or some therapy!

5- Digging

When dogs dig way too often, or way too deep they are releasing stres. Just like humans when they do physical activity. Maybe it is time for you to provide some physical stimulation to your pet!

6- Sleeps a lot

If your dog sleeps a lot and becomes extremely passive, then you need to take care of it.  Probably your dog is way to bored, and all they think of s sleeping. Try some physical stimulation just to make them feel better and healthier!
