Long walks and a game of fetch work wonders.

Kelpies are known for their herding instincts, so I set up playdates with other dogs. The combination of chasing and playing makes my Kelpie completely exhausted, which is a huge win for me. I also use puzzle toys for mental stimulation, and it helps keep them occupied when I'm busy. It's great to give them a workout that’s not just physical but also mentally challenging.

I’ve found that agility training really tires my Kelpie out. They have so much energy and love to have a job to do. Even a simple obstacle course in the yard can keep them engaged.
