You would rather stay at home and play with your pooch or lounge with your cat, but you have to go to work. This means Fido is stuck home alone for eight hours or more a day. If you’re concerned, they’ll either be bored or somehow get into trouble, make that time more enjoyable for your pets by using a game or camera to communicate with them. They’ll be happier overall, and less likely to take their frustration out on your furniture.

Give your pet some toys that will challenge their minds. Instead of just grabbing a simple rope or fuzzy mouse, select a toy that incorporates some sort of a puzzle. There are a variety of toys available that can make your pet work to receive some sort of a reward on the inside, like a rawhide chew or a treat. Depending on the complexity, these can keep your pets entertained for hours.
