mydiamond Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I always want Diamond to be a little more active inside the house... He's very lazy! The only thing he does inside the house is sleep. I bought him toys to play with but he's just not interested He loves his Kong, but that's not really a toy that gets him active because he just sits there and licks the peanut butter clean. I know people says as long as he's not sick or lethargic then it's fine, but I just don't feel sleeping all day long is healthy. Dime gets walked twice a day and both are long walks (45-60 minutes). But with him being such a sturdy breed, I doubt those walks would knock him out so much. I mean, he literally sleeps ALL day long! There must be a game or a toy of some sort that can get him a little bit active? A rope toy maybe? But how do I teach him how to play tug-of-war? Oh gosh now I know the feelings of parents with teenage children that sit in front of their laptops all day long it just doesn't look healthy... Any tips, guys?

jonny&tiffy Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I find rolo sleeps a lot, but when he wants to play he let's us know, a tug of war rope should get him to play more if he likes a ball or anything thrown do some throwing in the back garden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm planning to visit the pet store some time this week so will definitely get a rope toy just to see if Dime would play with it Dime doesn't really chase anything except it's his Kong.. but even with his Kong sometimes he runs right past it a few meters later he'd stop and look around wondering where could the Kong be LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
