As a professional dog trainer, I\u2019m always scanning the dog world for new mental enrichment ideas for dogs<\/strong>, especially when dogs are left alone all day<\/a>. Thankfully, technology is advancing and now new gadgets and apps<\/a> are being created for dogs as well.<\/p>\n Food stuffed toys<\/a> and puzzles are excellent ways to keep your dog entertained. And when they\u2019re combined with technology, your dog will be exhausted when you arrive home from work. Check out my favorite high tech dog toys. Your dog will thank you!<\/p>\n Believe it or not, dogs now have 24-hour access to their own cable channel<\/strong>. For $5 a month, Dog TV will keep your dog entertained for hours. Dog TV was created with the help of several leading dog behavior experts, and it continues to research new sound and visual ideas.<\/p>\n This channel can calm stressed dogs<\/a> and provide mental enrichment with different sounds. It\u2019s also a great way to introduce a variety of sounds to a puppy, such as a baby crying or meowing cat. Now, some dogs might dislike certain sounds, so it\u2019s best to watch Dog TV with your dog first.<\/p>\n This is easily my favorite dog gadget ever! There are a number of automatic dog treat dispensers that allow you to visually check in on your dog and dispense treats.<\/strong> Additionally, some automatic dog treat dispensers have timers and can dispense treats throughout the day or during short treat sessions. Pairing this gadget with food stuffed toys is a fantastic way to keep dogs mentally enriched all day long. Check out these automatic treat dispensers; my favorite is Pet Tutor<\/a> and Furbo dog camera<\/a> is pretty good too.<\/p>\n For dogs that love playing fetch<\/a> or chasing a ball, they can now play this game alone in the comfort of their home. iFetch<\/a> is an amazing automatic ball dispenser that will toss balls through a kitchen or down a hallway for endless fun. Dogs learn how to drop the ball back inside the dispenser to continue the game\u2014no human needed<\/strong>! This dog game will keep your dog\u2019s brain busy while providing her physical exercise.<\/a> This is especially helpful for dogs that need to lose a few extra pounds. Of course, if your dog is obsessed with fetch and obsessively chases balls for hours on end, then I would not recommend this game.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nDog TV Channel<\/h2>\n
