I have to go into hospital where the recovery time is going to be 6 weeks. I wont be able to walk my dog for that length of time. My dog is 3 years old she is a lab chow mix. We adopted her one year ago today.
My dog is used to being walked everyday for at least 45mins in the morning and twice again throughout the day for 3o mins a time. I usually also throw around the ball in the garden where she runs around chasing it. I dont have any family or friends just moved from the UK to Texas, my husband is out at work so its just me and the dog.
As I cant take her for a walk, but can throw her ball about in the garden, I was wondering how I am going to tire her out, I thought about going back over the basics on the training, she sits well, but the rest is when she feels like it, I know she's spoilt, will this be enough, just to go over the traning with her all the time. I know she will miss her walks and where possible my husband will take her, but it cant be every day.
Any idea's?
