Title: Advent calendar for the cocker
Post by: Mari on November 27, 2020, 10:17:25 PM

I love the countdown to Christmas! I have my tea calendar (because I can't be trusted with chocolate) and Laurië usually gets a doggie treat calendar. But she gets tons of treats anyway these days, so those overpriced calendars filled with dry biscuits did not really feel all that special. I am instead making my own calendar from a list of activities that she enjoys, that I feel guilty about not doing more often with her. Like different types of nosework and giving her massages etc. This is going to be fun! I think she'll enjoy the extra attention more than one bonus treat each day. Just thought I'd brag about my neat idea in case anyone wants to copy it  :005: Feel free to suggest activities too!

Certainly sounds like fun, have to get our thinking caps on  :clapping:

I agree about the price of the doggy advent calendars, some of them are just ridiculous.
