There’s something about the countryside – one minute the sun is shining and you’re out exploring fields and hedgerows, the next you’re faced with a downpour that even the hardiest hound wants to avoid. While we’re usually all for long muddy walks, there are some days when staying indoors is the only sensible option. But a cooped-up dog with energy to burn can quickly turn into a mischief-maker – and that’s where our new Lambwolf Boredom Busters come in.
These clever toys are designed with enrichment in mind, giving dogs the chance to use their brains as well as their bodies. Think puzzles that hide treats, toys that crinkle and squeak in unexpected ways, and designs that tap into your dog’s natural instincts to sniff, search, and problem-solve. A good ten minutes with one of these can tire out a dog just as effectively as a quick dash round the paddock – and without the muddy pawprints across your kitchen floor.
We’ve tried and tested them here at Bath Country Pets, and they’ve become fast favourites with our hotel guests. From puppies who need gentle mental stimulation to older dogs who still enjoy the thrill of discovery, these boredom busters are a brilliant way to keep minds busy and tails wagging on rainy days.
Pair them with the W’ziz natural training treats (small, healthy, and easy to tuck into puzzle toys) and you’ve got the perfect recipe for a calm, contented dog – and a peaceful afternoon for you.
You’ll find our full Lambwolf range in the country store, and a selection on our online store alongside plenty of other thoughtful picks for happy, well-entertained pets. Because even when the weather keeps you indoors, there’s no reason your dog’s day can’t be full of adventure.
