    Hi
    Any suggestions on how to stimulate a 2 year old shih tzu who is a bundle of energy?
    Our back garden is average size but not huge.
    He is only new to us so would be too nervous to let him off the lead in the park when i'm on my own (have an older dog too who is grand off the lead but i wouldn't be able to watch both at the same time as she's much slower and happy just to potter around)
    He's walked every day but just feel like he needs that little something more to keep him occupied! I try play fetch with him in the garden but he doesn't bring it back :rolleyes:

    100 Days of Enrichment, a free programme designed by AniEd. I can’t recommend it enough. If you pop to their website you’ll find the info and decide for yourself. I've had dogs all my life and this has been the best information I’ve ever come across. Shin Tzus are busy little dogs, We had one before our 2 rescues had one, she was super smart and bold so enrichment training was a god send :)
