Prepare for unexpected vet bills
While the name âScottish Staffish Bull Terrierâ might be a handful to write on any vet clinic form, the breed wonât be for the right owner. The Scottish Terrier and Staffordshire Bull Terrier (Staffy) mix is a rare hybrid breed with varying results. There are no defining personality traits for any of this unique breed because some can take on more of the Scottish or Staffordshire tendencies. Regardless, you will find these activities below more than enough to satisfy their physical activity requirements.Â
For the most part, your one-of-a-kind furry friend is going to love spending time with other dogs. Whether they have the âaim to pleaseâ trait from the Staffordshire, or the âdo what I wantâ side from the Scottish, they are bound to enjoy the outing nonetheless. Therefore, when itâs sunny, and you have an hour up your sleeve, organize a leash, toy, and waste bag and head to your local dog park. You can leave your wallet at home because this activity is free, and youâre bound to find your dog has a blast for the entirety of their visit.Â
When wintry weather hits, itâs not as easy to get out for that much-needed walk, or physical activity to keep you both in peak condition. Instead, you need to think a little outside the box to make sure your pup is still getting plenty of stimulation of other kinds. Thatâs where agility games come in. You can play games in the comfort of your home while being of moderate difficulty for your dog to learn. Whatâs more, you only need to turn your home slightly upside down, with obstacles, chairs, blankets, and more. It might make a mess, but it will be a fun mess!Â
One of the best activities for your four-legged companion, as well as yourself, is a walk. Itâs one of the most effective forms of exercise, and one that also doesnât take any money or effort to do. Instead, all you need to have is a leash and waste bag, and a pair of shoes, and you can hit the road. Itâs as easy as that! However, walking isnât the most thrilling activity, even if itâs all your dog needs. Why not change it up a little with these steps below? The change of pace will give your Scottish Staffish Bull Terrier something new to enjoy.Â
You canât go wrong with chew toys as an activity. They can entertain your pup for hours, all the while being the perfect rainy-day or lazy weekend activity. Because Scottish Staffish Bull Terriers tend to have tough little chompers, you may need to look out for robust rubber toys they canât shred into confetti.Â
Food puzzles are the perfect rainy-day activity, or fun game to play to stimulate your clever dog's senses. You can buy food puzzles with levers, latches, and holes to get food out of, or you can make some at home for a fraction of the price. Donât underestimate the importance of mental stimulation for your dog.Â
With the rare Scottish Staffish Bull Terrier breed, you never know what youâre going to get. They could be an independent, sassy dog, or one that will do what you say and when you say it. Regardless of the traits your dog has, you will love them regardless. Therefore, thereâs every reason to treat them to some fun activities such as these above.Â
