3. Keep your dog stimulated
Like kids, dogs need their brains to stay stimulated, which sharpens their intelligence and makes them even easier to teach. How can you do that? Teach your puppy new tricks, play fetch games, introduce it to new faces, give them dog toys like puzzle balls or Kong wobbler, etc. All of these will keep your puppy’s mind sharp and young!
4. Create problems/obstacles
Just like us, dogs can learn from the problems and obstacles that they face. If you want to keep your dog’s mind sharp, constantly expose them to tests. Instead of giving him treats in a normal dog bowl, for example, put the food in a bowl that would make it more challenging for him to get the treats. Continue to test your puppy’s intelligence like that, and that will definitely sharpen their mind.
