Just because it's too hot to take your pets outside to excercise, it does not mean that they should not be stimulated at all. Bella Vasta, Pack Leader with Bella's House & Pet Sitting, shares some helpful tips below...

1. Make obstacle courses for your pets using things like toilet paper rolls, broom sticks and chairs.

2. Pools can be great for our four legged friends, but make sure they are supervised or get a kiddy pool instead.

3. Don't worry if you don't have a big yard to run around in. Even teaching your pet how to run up and down stairs can be excerise enough.

Left over meat scraps

Simply place the pieces of meat in the ice cube trays, cover with water, and freeze. Makes great treats for the summer and doesn't make a mess! :)
