Indoor Olympic Obstacle Course for Your Dog

If you and your dog are experiencing cabin fever due to this wintry weather, here are some indoor games to try! Make sure to tag us @behaviorunited should you post any videos of your dogs and cats going for gold and trying these activities.

I had the pleasure of giving a Zoom presentation to 9yo - 12yo children attending a virtual animal-centric summer camp hosted by a local animal shelter in 2021. Inspired by the Olympics, I shared how to use a simple “touch” behavior to guide your pet through a homemade obstacle course plus trick training. I recorded my presentation and am sharing it here with you as a VLOG. The same techniques in this video can be used for both dogs and cats. Let the games begin!

Fun activities for dogs and their people inspired by the Olympics!
