Give Your Dog a Job!
If your dog is really smart, they’re probably pretty bored of just doing sit, down, stay, and shake a paw.
To fulfill their own need for mental stimulation, smart dogs often invent their own tricks, such as sock and shoe stealing, chair leg chewing, or barking at things through the window.
Give them tricks for their job, so they don’t make poor career choices!
