    My dog is a 60lb pit, and one thing she loves to do indoors our out, is play with a box.

    So i get a good square box abut 10x her head size.

    when I play with her i try to trap her head in it, and she will try to grab the edges quick. Make sure whatever kind of dog you own, you will have a box big enough so you never hit your dog in the head. Then its fun and should be pretty easy for you. Don't get a big box, people, think wtf is this clown doing??

    My dog gets on it like coffee at 7am, crazy I tel ya. She has lots of play energy, so she wants to try for days... its a great exercise cause they just move around in living room or outside where ever...

    Works well if animal has bad joints, muscles, knees and so on. It help teaches the animal to stay down and not jump up on people if you want.

    it works great with dogs... not sure about cats.. but give it a try...

    my dog a female. guys might not care idk...

    This dog apparently likes to watch tennis. At 13 seconds in you see a bored reaction from the guy's other dog. Personally if I wanted to watch tennis it would be really annoying to have my dog jumping up and down in front of the TV.

    The dogs here need more exercise in Winter but they won't stay out and play on their own as much in Winter. If I was able to give them the walks they need then they'd do it but on their own they just want to come back in too soon in Winter.

    My boy destroys beer boxes and all. If I accidently leave the garage open he'll sneak on in and grab some kinda box to thrash around.

    Yesterday he'd gotten to these rubber floor mats id left outside and well let's just say they're now in the bin and I hope he hasn't swallowed too much.

    You know it amazes me that these animals, especially the German Shepard are meant to be "intelligent" animals. I seem to think if I left him on his own to do what he wanted then he would almost kill himself. If he found a razor blade and I said "Oi, Nein!" He'd swallow that just to spite me. Poison on the ground? No worries! He'd drink that up right then and there. He has got over most of it now, but as a young pup boy you had to watch everything he did and ate... Questioning the validity of intelligence... :d if it wasn't for human interference, I dare say he'd be dead.

    There's a rabbit head in the drive-way . The Rainbow dog got it and eats on that at
    her winter leisure . If the temp is above 0* F , and there's some moon light to shine
    and sparkle the snow all around , this dog will want to stay outside all night . I help
    her to always know what she needs .
