Speaking of free time my pets have been very frustrated by the lack of attention, We try our best to get out but sometimes we just don't have the time. I love using enrichment activites for when we are really swamped. For example that first 6 weeks after the kiddo was born. Enrichment activities is a fancy way of saying entertaining your animal.
Food is a great reward and motivator. Your pet will work long and hard to get a super yummy treat. We take advantage of that determination to keep our pets busy for a long period of time.
Pupcicles are easy to make, and you can make a bunch so you can pull them out as needed. Like when all your baby wants to do is nurse for the next 8 hours. Cluster feeding, who knew that was a thing?
- Tupperware popsicles holders or Dixie cups
- 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
- 1 cup canned pumpkin
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- dog treats
Mix together wet ingredients until smooth.
Spoon into tupperware or dixie cups
Add dog treat as popsicle stick

Give as needed to your pups
