Activities For Toxirns
Prepare for unexpected vet bills
Introduction
The Toxirn is a tiny companion dog originating from the Cairn Terrier and Chihuahua. They get their playfulness and loyalty from the Cairn Terrier and the protectiveness and size from the Chihuahua. When you join the breeds together, you get a lovely little dog that’s ideal for life in an apartment or home, with or without other pets. The Toxirn is normally no more than 10 pounds and doesn’t require a lot of physical activity. However, they do like to have something to keep them busy. These activities below might help.
Food Stuffer Toys
If you live in an apartment or it’s raining outside, you may find it challenging to offer your Toxirn a fun and stimulating activity. A quick trip to the pet store can see you with a toy that will provide an hour of entertainment for as many years as you need. A food-stuffed toy is perfect before it’s affordable and effortless to use. All you have to do is add food and let your dog spend countless hours trying to get it all out. It’s perfect for apartment-dwelling dogs or pups that require ongoing stimulation to keep them out of trouble.
Pet Stroller Training
Even though you may like to take your Toxirn with you everywhere you go, their little legs can tire quickly. You then face a dilemma - how to get you and your dog to your destination in a timely fashion. That’s why a pet stroller can be a lucrative investment. Instead of making your dog - with their tiny legs - walk for miles, you can buy a stroller and carry them in it. However, it’s going to take hard work. Even though training is free after the investment of the stroller, and you only need treats, it can take some time for your Toxirn to adjust and learn what you expect of them in the stroller. Try the following steps out in five-minute training sessions.
Dress Up
If you’re looking for an all-weather activity that can be fun for both your Toxirn and you, then consider playing dress-ups. While you may have thought you left your playing days behind years ago, owning a small dog brings them all back again. This simple activity can be expensive if you buy dog clothing brand new, but it can entertain you both for at least an hour. What’s more, once you dress your Toxirn up, with treat bribes, of course, you can then take pictures. If you dress your Toxirn up when you bring them home as a puppy, they won’t mind being your model as they mature.

Chew toys
Toxirns don’t often like to be left alone, but it’s not always possible to be with them 24 hours a day. If you need to shoot into town to run some errands, leave some chew toys at home. Your pup will love tearing around the house with one, especially if it makes a squeaky noise! You can then have no guilt about leaving them behind!
Dog Park
One of the many adorable traits of the Toxirn is that they don’t know their size. Even if they only weigh a few pounds, they don’t discriminate when it comes to their playmates. When you socialize them from a young enough age, you will also find they enjoy playing with almost any dog. Treat them to regular dog park trips to allow them to make new friends and burn off energy.
