Activities For A Buggs

Due to the intelligence and natural curiosity of their parent breeds, the Buggs excels in different forms of puzzle and mental games. One of the simplest but most stimulating games that you can play with your Buggs at home is the muffin tin game. The mechanics of the game are simple: all you have to do is place treats in a muffin tin tray and cover them with tennis balls. Your dog will then use their sense of smell and wits to find the treats hidden underneath. It is a great way to fight boredom and to keep your dog occupied even while staying indoors. 

The Buggs only needs a moderate amount of physical stimulation and exercise on a daily basis. However, they do need some form of entertainment so that they will not end up bored, which can then lead to some negative behavior. Another straightforward but effective indoor game that you can play with your pooch is hall ball. As its name suggests, this activity simply involves rolling down a toy ball across a hallway (bonus points if your hallway at home is long!) and getting your dog to fetch it. This can be played anytime, even during the rainy season, and is completely free. 

One of the downsides of owning a Buggs is that they can be prone to obesity, especially when their diet is not monitored well. Fortunately, a Buggs only needs a relative amount of physical exercise regularly. In fact, a short 30 to 45-minute walk around the block should be more than enough physical stimulation for your dog. However, your usual walks can get a bit boring and repetitive over time. One way to shake up your usual routine would be to let your pooch take over. In this activity, the twist would be getting your pooch to walk you instead of the other way around.
