Be Careful What You Step on
If you’re not ready to play, it’s probably best to put the toys away. Otherwise, you’re constantly at risk of stepping on one of your dog’s squeaky toys. And when that happens, there’s no turning back—your dog will instantly think it’s playtime. In their mind, that squeak wasn’t an accident; it was your way of inviting them to have fun
Can you really blame them for getting excited? Once they give you that eager, tail-wagging look, you’re practically obligated to play with them for a bit. After all, you’re the one who got them riled up with the noise. Ignoring them at that point would just feel wrong, wouldn’t it? Plus, playing together strengthens your bond and keeps your pup happy and active. So, next time you hear that squeak, embrace the moment—it’s a small price to pay for your dog’s joy.
