Bad weather can be a bummer for the active dog and their family. The good news it that there are tons of things to do inside that are not only fun but mentally and phsically engaging as well.
After a bit of research, I narrowed it down to 10 of my favorite activities for indoor fun that weren't just based on using food as a distraction but actually involved play and conncetion.
The list is in no way exhaustive but it might surprise you.

Adventure Racing is known as the most grueling endurance sport on the planet. Traversing hundreds of miles through various terrain, climates, environments and multiple disciplines, it's more often a race of survival than time across a finish line.
In 2014, Mikael Lindnord and his team from Sweden traveled to Ecuador for the Adventure Racing World Championships representing their country and their sponsor Peak Performance. A stage for world class athletes from around the world, this race wasn't just another competition; it was a career changing pursuit vying for the title of World Champions.
However, what started out as a team effort of 4, quickly took an unexpected turn when an unlikely 5th teammate joined them on day four of the race.
Arthur's story is nothing short of heroic and miraculous as he comes face to face with the human whose tenacious heart matched his own.

Geri Suster never intended to wander. A corporate job, two sons, two dogs, and a nice house in southern California seemed to be perfectly good reasons to stay put. But, when her sons set off for college, she found herself packing up her dogs Solo and Castle, and starting off on the most unlikely of adventures fulfilling her senior dog's bucket list wishes.
This is a heartwarming and inspiring tale of how one woman is driving across the United States finding joy in seeing the world through Solo and Castle's eyes.

The way I met Charlie in 2009 is anything but typical. Found paralyzed in a ditch and headed for certain euthanasia, fate stepped in and our paths crossed that May in Florida. No one could have prepared me for the adventures that would follow. From the mountains of Colorado to the coastal redwoods of California, this little dog navigates with his heart and inspires everyone that he meets to do the same. Step inside Charlie's story of being hours away from euthanasia to living a nomadic, adventurous life that inspires everyone to live life a little far fetched.

The show dedicated to the animals that make us all better humans by inspiring us to step outside both literally and metaphorically. Far Fetched Adventures takes a look at the landscapes that our furry family members dare us to navigate and tells the stories of how they're changing lives all over the world. From mountain peaks to seashores, we'll explore every paw print along the way. Daring adventures on the trail, on the road, in business and in life, with cold noses and wagging tails as our compass.
