Heyyyy! My dad lives on the Eastern Shore.
My friend goes to Salisbury University. I'm about an hour from there.
Anyways... I keep Jackson by a few things. We do a lot of tricks & trick training. So sometimes we learn a new one or sometimes we just dedicate 15 minutes or so to doing all the other tricks he knows to refresh on them.
We also do a nightly game of fetch for about 10 minutes or so. I throw it down a long hall and he fetches it and brings it back. He loves that.
I also make sure to have a bullystick chew for these kind of days (he's chewing on one right now).
