Every pet parent has probably been through it. You’re on a conference call. You’re just about to present. And your sweet little fur baby decides at that very moment to either jump on your workstation or start up the one dog orchestra.
Our lives have been turned upside down as we struggled to come to grips with our new normal. As pet parents, there have been some positives. Hybrid and full-time remote work are the new norm for most, meaning we’ve needed to adjust our work style for our pets.
A whole new world
Mastering this new work and living environment has been a juggling act, so here are some tips on how to keep your dog busy while working from home.
1. TAKE YOUR DOG WALKING
Taking your dog on regular walks is a good way to burn off some energy.
Rogz has a wide range of dog harnesses and dog leads for you to choose from. All our harnesses are fully adjustable to ensure a perfect fit for your beloved pet, all while being comfortable for your dog and giving you excellent control.
2. PLAY A QUICK GAME OF FETCH
If you don’t have time to go on a walk before a conference call, play some fetch. Your bestie will be catching their breath during your call.
Playing fetch with the Rogz Grinz Fetch Ball is a great way to tire out your bestie before your conference call. It rolls, it floats, it bounces. It is a great way to burn off all that energy and get your bestie settled in for a snooze. If your bestie still needs added excitement, the Rogz Squeekz Fetch Ball will get your fur baby’s mind actively engaged and quickly burn energy.
3. MENTAL STIMULATION FOR DOGS
If your bestie is focused on their own problem, they won’t become a problem. Dog toys and enrichment toys are great ways to keep your dog entertained. Enrichment toys are also a great way for your dog to embrace his natural behaviours like chasing, sniffing, chewing and playing.
From dental toys to chew toys, from fetch toys to treat toys, Rogz has an assortment of dog toys that will keep your bestie entertained and out of your hair.
4. CREATE A SPACE FOR YOUR DOG
Based on your bestie’s personality, you can put a comfy dog bed next to your desk, in the same room as you or in a different room. Encourage them to stay on their beds by throwing some treats onto it or playing games with them on their bed.
Our range of dog beds will offer your bestie the perfect spot to retreat. Not sure what type of bed to get them? There are so many Rogz Dog Beds to choose from, you’ll find the perfect fit for your dog in no time.
