[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 605821, member: 84"] Work for food bored Maggie in zero point 5 seconds. No joke. I don't care how complicated it was. Petsmart (I believe) has these hard plastic balls in various sizes (you want the large size). You might be able to teach her soccer like Maggie. I start by both rolling it on the ground and carefully bunting it like a soccer ball. Carefully because it WILL hurt both you and her if you do it too hard. Supposed to fill them with water but I never have......omg I could imagine how that would hurt. Uh, no. Maggie plays soccer and it helps to both exercise her and wear her out. She is teaching Rufus. lol Rufus is a lab and while he can be plenty active, he is a laid back dude much of the time. But then Rufus gets plenty of exercise too between soccer and wrestling matches and chase me and on and on with Maggie. lol Teach her good manners and just enjoy playing / walking her. I have a feeling she'll calm down in not too long. I think the being in a crate all the time had an effect. It did easy child's Ammo.......enough running with my dogs in the yard has mellowed him out energy wise. :) [/QUOTE]
