Prepare for unexpected vet bills
If you love hockey, you are not alone! Hockey is a very popular sport in the US and in other countries. So, since you enjoy the game so much, it is a pretty smart decision to get a dog that can enjoy it with you! Luckily, there are many dog breeds that you can spend quality time with, either at an actual game during events like Pucks and Paws, or by doing activities that are related to the game. Being a sports lover, you can get your dog interested in many types of physical activity, from a simple game of fetch with a hockey puck dog toy to rolling a soccer ball into a goal. Whatever you choose, any fun activity is very good for your dog and will keep him not only physically fit and healthy, but happy!
Watching your dog jump up and try to get an object is always a fun activity, and it gives your dog the exercise needed. Take your dog's favorite toy, and hold it up high. See if your pup can jump up and grab it!
Using a dog toy on a rope, play tug of war with your companion. Have your dog grab one end while you grab the other. Tug on it, and watch your furry friend tug back! Be careful and don't tug too hard, but definitely add some resistance in the fun.
