Summer is here, and nothing beats the heat like taking a refreshing dip in the water. However, alongside humans, their furry friends also deserve to be treated to a swimming session. Swimming is a really helpful way to help your dog unwind and bond with nature. This activity can also help your pets’ health by maintaining good bones and cardiovascular activity.
Apart from all these benefits, swimming can also help your pet tire out. Recently, an adorable tired puppy, after enjoying a swimming day, was seen in an adorable fight with his sleep. The video of the puppy Ruby has gone viral as dog enthusiasts on TikTok pour their love for the precious animal.

According to Niki French, a dog trainer from England, there are four other ways to tire almost every breed of dog and get them to sleep peacefully. This includes playing games and experimenting with never tried foods before

According to French, the owner of the pup, a scent game that involves spreading your dog?s food all around the house and letting your dog smell and find the food can help tire your pet. Another trick involves using a licking mat for your furry friend. You can smear wet foods such as bananas, moistened biscuits, or yogurt on the mat and let your dog lick it. A new food can also be smeared onto the mat to test out your dog’s food interest. Mat licking is an easy way to help your dog calm down and go to sleep.
Further, the next trick involves a game of tug with your pet. Dogs love to play with toys by grabbing onto them with their mouths; however, try to be more cautious with dogs who bite the toy ferociously and use a long toy to protect your hand. After playing a few rounds of the game, try to settle your dog down and put them to sleep. And lastly, let your furry friend lick and chew on safe items that can?t be choked upon. According to Niki French, a natural chewable with a proper size according to your pet’s size and that comes from a single source of protein is the best item for your dog to chew and lick.
