Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 2 years and 1 month old | 18 lbs
My dog is hyper. I already took him to the park to run but he's the whole day throwing his toys at me to play with him and barking at me while I'm doing homework..... I'd love to play with him more but I don't have the whole day. What's there to do? I already tried a trainer but it's expensive to keep training him.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would recommend offering more toys that keep Benny busy longer. Kong toys that you can fill with peanut butter work great and you can find the kong toys online or at your local pet store. You can also try NaturVet Quiet Moments calm chews with melatonin which can also be found online or at your local PetCo. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
