A bored puppy is an unhappy puppy, and possibly a destructive puppy. Dogs are intelligent animals. Toys which challenge your puppy to figure something out are a great way to stave off boredom, and they help to develop your puppy’s mind. As a result, even games of catch give your puppy more to think about.
