There are many ways to get your dog out of its boredom activities. Many toys are available which simulate a duck, dog, rodent etc.

These can be kept inside the crate as puppies really love these items. A buster cube with multiple treats may be placed in the dog’s shelter and the animal will quickly learn how to roll the buster cube to get the treats it prefers. A Buster Cube is an ingenious toy use for simulating and activating your dog during play and feed time. Instead of placing the food monotonously in one place, change the place of feeding.

Providing toys such as these will be helpful for removing the boredom like activity in your dog. Activities related to boredom need to be defined well by dog owners as this will help them to drive away the unwanted behavior patterns in their pet dogs.

For example, some dogs may have destructive biting characters and will be seen biting chair, cloth, mats, and everything else. After ruling out the teething problem if it is a puppy, provide it with some large sized balls, mineral mixture based bone materials, etc. Such variety of materials help to reduce the boredom related activities.
