Mental Exercises for Bored Dogs: The 28-Day Brain Reset
He had his walk. He is still chewing the couch. A tired body is not a tired brain. Your dog was bred to do a job — sniff, chase, shred, dig, herd or solve — and when nothing in the house feeds that drive, he invents his own. This book starts with the problem, shows you the drive behind it, and gives that drive a job: ten minutes a day, no backyard required.

Start with the problem, not a pile of games
Most enrichment books hand you fifty games and wish you luck. This one works the other way round.
Chewing and shredding, barking, the evening zoomies, digging and stealing, whining and alone-time stress, and the dog who gets wilder instead of calmer. A one-page finder sends you straight to your chapter.
Sniff, Chase, Shred, Dig, Herd or Solve. Every problem is a frustrated instinct, and the Drive Quiz shows which one is running your dog — so every game actually satisfies it.
60 brain games at Starter, Stretch and Expert levels, each with an “if it’s not working” fix, built into a 28-day plan: Calm Foundations, Feed the Drive, Tackle the Problem, Independence.
