Personally, I love interactive toys. I recently had a trainer work with my dog who focuses on brain games vs. physical activity, and he's done very well with that! One thing you can easily do, is when you get home, take handful of kibbles or small treats and just toss them into the back yard. Then he has to go and find them. This is very easy to do, and will tire him out of sure. Toys that I like are the kong wobbler, feeder balls or treat dispensing balls, the pickle pocket, the everlasting treat, and even a good old kong toy stuffed with some frozen fresh ground peanut butter (avoid any peanut butter with xylitol of course), greek yogurt, or pumpkin. My one dog doesn't really like the kong wobbler or the treat dispensing toy because he gets frustrated very easily. You'll just have to do a trial and error with Leny. My puppy really likes the treat ball and the kongs, as does my older guy. The older, more frustrated guy, really likes the everlasting treat ball as well. I order a lot of

She is likely a very chilled dog who is more used to interacting in a calm manner with humans. If she doesnt want to play i would just let her do her own thing. She will probably appreciate a bit of fuss from you though.

if you play rough games with Fuji, he will continue to play rough. As a kitten this is cute but as an adult, this could hurt. I recommend to stop all games that encourage him to bite or scratch humans (even in play). Satisfy his desire to play with more constructive games and really get him moving. He wants to wrestle, encourage him to do so with a large stuffed animal. I hope this helps.

It depends on what Tootie is nipping for. If it is when she plays without toys, I recommend saying "No" when she does it and give her a toy to play with instead. When she plays with the toy tell her "good girl". If she is nipping over a toy, I would stop playing with that toy all together. Continue to positively reinforce good behaviors, like playing calmly without biting, and give lots of praise when she is playing nice. When she starts to nip, take your attention away, until she sits or settles down. When she does, give lots of praise. Make sure everyone that plays with her is following these instructions or she may get confused. Good luck and kisses to Tootie!
