Keeping the brain sharp!

Brain games and enrichment are a perfect way to keep your aging dog’s brain sharp as a tack. For both humans and dogs, memory, learning ability, and other cognitive functions decline as we age. Studies have shown that providing physical exercise, social enrichment, and mental enrichment helps preserve and improve a dog’s “cognitive functions” — their ability to think and solve problems.

To help stave off cognitive decline for your dog and prevent behavioral issues, you can incorporate fun problem-solving games, short and sweet training sessions, and other mental enrichment activities into their daily routine. It’s never too late to start, and it is tons of fun!
