8 | my pet magazine uFEATURED ARTICLE Are you looking for some fun things to do at home with your pet? Here are 10 fun at home activities you can try! 1/ Have A Photo Shoot So much fun and you will end up with something to put on the wall or post on social media. 2/ Paw Art Use your pet's paw to make a piece of art. All you need is some non-toxic paint, paper or canvas and maybe an extra set of hands. Have fun and create something artistic and meaningful that you can hang on the wall and keep forever. 3/ Training It is the perfect time to master the basics of obedience training, teach your dog some tricks or try clicker training. Teach them or refresh the basics like stay, sit, come or shake. Once they are masters of the basics, why not try some tricks like roll over, play dead, fetch the mail or teach them to dance. Although cats aren't often trained, give it a go. You might be able to teach them to give high fives, jump up or meow on command. 4/ Bake There are lots of treats you can make at home for your doggo just be sure to use dog-safe ingredients. Cats are a bit more fussy, but you might find something they like. 5/ Start an Instagram page for your pet This can be lots of fun! Sharing your pet's life, posting photos and taking on their personality to create posts. Who knows they might end up being a famous #petfluencer. 6/ Treasure Hunt Hide treats around the house for your dog or cat to sniff out. You can make it as easy or as hard as you like. This can lead into scent training with dog's where they need to find a treat and respond by sitting or reacting in a certain way to tell you the treat is there. It could keep you all busy for hours. (Just a tip, don't forget where you hid all the treats otherwise you might end up with some 'uninvited' participants over the next few days). 7/ Obstacle Course Set up a fun obstacle course and put your dog or cat's agility and training to good use. Create jumps, ramps, weave poles and more out of things you have at home. photo shoot training FUN AT HOME 1. with your pet
