Pet Sponge 3 - Destructive Dogs, Part 2

Guest: Spongetech Delivery Systems, Inc.

Here’s how to manage your dog’s destructive chewing behavior. Make sure to give your dog plenty of people-time. You can’t teach your dog appropriate behavior when he’s confined to the backyard by himself. And, if you catch your dog chewing on something he shouldn’t, interrupt with a loud noise and provide him with a safe chew toy.. Dogs chew for entertainment when they’re bored, so don’t let him get bored! Rotate his toys, take him for walks, play fetch with him outside, and provide mental stimulation like learning new commands or tricks. Stay tuned to The Balancing Act for more pet tips!
