May: Dog Mental Health Matters Too
Why Mental Health Isn’t Just for Humans
We often think about mental health in people—but dogs struggle too. Boredom, separation anxiety, and lack of stimulation can affect your dog’s mood and overall behavior. Signs of poor mental health in dogs include:
- Destructive chewing
- Excessive barking
- Restlessness or pacing
- Loss of appetite
- Depression-like symptoms
Just like us, dogs need emotional balance and daily engagement.
Interactive Toys: A Simple Mental Health Boost
Interactive toys challenge your dog’s brain. When your dog works for treats, solves puzzles, or plays with smart toys, they’re using problem-solving and focus. This mental stimulation keeps them calm, satisfied, and happy—even when they’re home alone.
Benefits of Interactive Play for Dogs
